Nice use of sharing info without reading off paper or slides. <br />My only criticism : I felt as though you both were very passionate and well educated on this subject and although you gave personal stories about the topic, there wasn't much interaction to what you shared. I was expecting a "now that you know, you can do this" section !<br />Pauleina : good voice volume and eye contact. good personal story given. <br />Kirstein : good voice tone, volume, and eye contact. good emotional appeal and personal story given.

I think that the videos give a good visual. <br /><br />I think that your collection of information could be better organized to reflect a linear progression and or points that are being made.

I liked how you brought up the history and that its more of a gain for the company than the consumers. Its sad to think there's a national death count when the weekend is supposed to be about family. My only criticism would be not covering more on the incidences and the peoples actions to prepare in the actual event such as the lines to get in retail establishments.

You clearly showed how it was iconic, but I think you guys made your presentation more of an argument.

I also wish you had done more to show how people go against this day of consumerism.
