Naomi Klein thinks that Logos are words in an international language. She also thinks that every people in the world recognises the logos of the most important brand names in the market and hat we should worry about who we're and not about we've got, but we think that she is a bit right, but not totally right.

By: Andrea & Jaime

NAOMI KLEINS-NO LOGO:
We think that we must save money but all in the world can have some pleiseurs.
We agree that there's people in the world that can't have pleiseurs like people from
South Africa and Haiti but in rich countries like japan.

NO LOGO

by Naomi Klein

We think Naomi is completely right in her opinions about the brands and global companies.

About the logos, she's absolutely right too. We think they have become a normal sign, but we don't realise, that it's an advertisement.

We are extremely agree with her that is imposible to escape from adverts!

We also think that it is right that brands explote people from poor countries, like China and Indonesia, and it's a problem; but the brands aren't as bad as she says because if they aren't brands there won't be any products.

By Carlos and David

NO LOGOS BY NAOMI KLEIN

She says that products are produced in terrible conditions in poor contries and the people whi wirks only have 28 cts for hour and we think is very bad conditions for a person and it isn't fair because we have to pay a lot for things.

Ana & Carmen

"NO LOGO" by Naomi Klein
Naomi Klein, the author of the book "No Logo", protest about the big coperations that dominates market all over the world. She says that logos are the closest things we have to an international language and most people recognises them. We both thing that she is absolutely right.
She compares the boss from Disney Coperation, who earns thousends of dollars, with a worker in Haiti, who works from 28cents per hour.we thing that it is terrible
Laura&MªCristina

NO LOGO by Noemi Klein

our opinion

We think that Noemi Klein is right in one part because brands are very popular and people buy them a lot, but if we recognise the logos is because we are consumers.

Is true that there's no escape from advertising because to know about brands or products, we must see it, e.g on TV, streets, magazines, advertisements, etc.

She is completly right when she sais that there's "a darkest side" because there is a big imbalance between the famous people who lend them image and the unknow people who work hard to win only a few cents. We think that famous people earn that quantity only because them image but we, the consumers, don't mind about that, we only want the brand. Anyway she is right but she has brands like us.

NO LOGO

By: NAOMI KLEIN

CRISTINA & ELENA

We think that Naomi is completetely right in all her opinions, because injusticies aren't right and there isn't diferences into people.

My film idea:

Some Italian students of about 14 years old come to Spain for an interchange, and they stay at British Council with some other Spanish students. Suddendly one of the Spanish students died. Anybody of the students know who is the murder. Other people start dying, a teacher, some Italian student...
Then, two Spanish students and a police officer start discovering things about the murder and finally they catch him.

By Carlos.

My personal anecdote

I remember a day when every thing were wrong; it was fives days before the end of the school.I was doing my final exams of ''Licenza elementare'' while I was doing it immediately the fire alarm rang and all my class went out of the school because someone called the school and said that there was bomb into it. After 10 minutes the police arrived but they didn't found anything, then we returned to the class for continue the exam .

I don't know how but the school let know that a student of my class for not have the exams called the school and invented the story of the bomb but the school didn't know his or her name. The director decide to punish all my class. We were expulsed for 3 days of the school and we must finished the school two days after the other students. My class finshed the exams with a vey bads marks.

When i arrived home my mum punished me for the bad mark on the exam, 3 weeks without go out with my friends. In the end the school found the
responsabile but we had still done the punishment.

But all of sudden there isn't as bad as we think have a day like that I prefer this kind of days as have normally and boring days because life mustn't be boring must it?

by Andrea

It is the worst day of my last holidays. I went to my sailing's class because I was preparing for be a sailing's monitor. It was a beautiful day, the sun was shining and the sea was good for sailing.

As soon as I arrived there a teacher said me that I was going to sail with a child and his father. All of a sudden I looked them and I saw a little child and a fat man.

We go out to sail. After the teachers were behind us in an other boat. The father and the child told me that was their first day.

When we were sailing the man was feeling sick and suddenly the man nearly fell to the water. Then his son started to cried. Immediately I looked the teachers' boat and they were laughing and talking. Until I didn't call them, they didn't come. At last, I got that the child stopped to cry. Before that I knew that this day was going be very bad.

In the end, the teachers came and after we returned to the harbour. Eventually the child and his father didn't returned to class the following days.

The Worst Day of My Life
Probably that is the worst day of my life. I had to do an important speech at school about the pollution in Spain. I am a little bit shy and the night before I was really nervious, all the teachers and all the students will hear me!! So I went to the bed early because I had to be relaxed for the next day.
When I woke up, I had a shower and while I was having breakfast my mother arrive to the kitchen and asked me if I was nervious, but when I was going to answer I realized that I had a cold and I have lost my voice and I couldn´t speak properly!! What could I do??.
When I arrived to the school I could speak a little bit better, so I relaxed.I was at the playground when my teacher said to me that we had to prepare the speech, so I went with her to the theatre (where the speech will be in).I had to gave the plan for the speech to the teacher when I realized that I have forgot the planning at home!! Oh my god, everything was going wrong!!
My teacher was really angry with me, luckily I knew more or less what I had to say about the pollution. I have been waitinf for an hour and the speech hadn´t started yet and I was becoming really impatient. A few minutes later my teacher explained that the speech had been cancelled because of there was some sound’s problems!!

Ideas for the project's plot___by_david_buendia

I thing we can do a film with this plot:

Some Italian friends come to the British Countil for interchange. One of them is a murder. People start dying...what's happening? Anyperson knows...

One Spanish student notice that X (an Italian student) has killed one teacher. Finally between all the students can kill him.

All of these ideas combined with a little of comedy.

My personal anecdote__A day when everything went wrong
by _david_buendia

It was 15th December. The next day was the last day of school because of the Christmas holidays. I was so nervous, and I could't sleep on that night. Finally, but very late, I got sleep.

The next day, 16th I wake up very late because I hadn't slept.

I arrive to school very late too. Suddenly, my teacher got angry with me and said me that he was going to call my mother for tell her the problem. 'Oh, nooo!' - I thought. I wasn't going to have holidays, my mother was going to punish me!

Then, my day in school was very tired and I don't know why, but all of my teachers got angry with me. I didn't pass any of my final exams!!!

And after; when I was in the break, inmediately I broke my leg.... :-(

In the end, I wasn't going to have holidays, I was going to get lost in the hell!!

This was the worst day of my life!

A disastrous school outing

One day, 1 or 2 years ago, my course went to a school outing. We went to Toledo, in the middle of the way, our bus lost a wheel, so we had to go to a shop nearly to buy one and put it. After that we arrived to Toledo, one kid lost himself in the city

After 2 hours of searching, we founded him. Then we went to a countryside and one of my best friends fall into a lake. We had a lot of fun over there, but then I fall off in the mud. After all this things, we had lunch. It was horrible, the worst food I ever taked.

Then we played a football match in a freezed place, every people hurted by falling off by the ice. One kid broked a leg.

Luckyly, we went back home, but we hadn't got gasoil. Then we bought it and went back home.

By: Jaime

MY PROJECT IDEA I think we can do a project like this: Some Italians students came to the British Council in a change. One of this was a murder and he or she killed a theacher. The Spanish students who are in Italy saw in the newspaper that a murder had leaved Italy and arrived in Spanin to kill more people. They saw the photo and it was the student who came to Spain. They leaved Italy and came back to Spanin to helped Spanish people. When they arrived in the British Council he had killed a teacher and a studenrtIt was terrible! To be continued...

THE FREE MURDERERS

One May 5 in the interchange office of the Italian ambassade from Spain,planed to make an interchange between Sicilians students and Madridians students.The Italians aren't going to stay in hosts families,they're going to stay in the Brithish Council of Madrid and the Spanish students are going to stay in the Brithish ambassade of Italy.The Italians students (Enzo,Andrea and Michelangelo)don't know that Michelangelo isn't a student.The reality is that Michelangelo is a murderer .He's a mafian that is very small.................................................................etc.

My ideas:

• If we want to do a good film, all of we must participate. For it we’ll be the leading actors.
• We must think about a theme. I think that it could be a group of friends that go to a trip. The group is divided in several parts; there are some stroppy people who don’t stand cool people. For the convivence they must start a relationship.

The next thing:

• The next thing would be that we organize our characters and our rolls and that we write the teat cast to decide who is who in the film or to choose who we want be in the film.
• We also can rehearse in class, correct our mistakes, and then we can start filming!!!

By Maricruz

I think we don't need very much things, just very much interest and participation. This interest and participation will make that we think IDEAS. The ideas are the base for our project, because without imagination you can't do anything in the artistic live.

It could be a good idea to use the last part of the class (after the break) to think ideas, and the person who starts with the first good idea will be the person who makes the class stand up and get more and more ideas and then... we'll have the film done!

The materials are not important, because they're easy to find, but the ideas must be searched and thinked previously.
