The Team
Who We Are
Gabriela Maia
Hi, my name is Gabriela. Hope you liked my biosketch.
Let me tell you a little bit more about me. I once struggled with food, it was really hard for me because I didn't want to eat nothing.
Luckily I got better and I enjoy food so much nowadays.
We hope that you enjoy this website and learn how social media works and affects our everyday life.
Be aware with us!
Beatriz Salgado
Hello! I'm Beatriz, but you already knew that if you watched my biosketch!
The topic we chose for this project really interests me. I think the way we're manipulated by food advertising is a big issue and we can learn a lot about not only the methods companies use for their objective, but also about how we as an audience perceive this problem.
Being consumers ourselves, I think it'll be quite eye-opening looking at things like marketing tactics and other aspects of this theme.
I hope you enjoy looking at our thoughts about this topic as much as we enjoyed working on it!
Iara Mendes
Hi there fellow readers! My name is Iara Mendes, and I invite you to watch my brief bio sketch video to get to know me better!
Me and my colleagues chose this topic to research and debate on considering that food advertisements and its corresponding effects are an increasing problem in today’s modern society, especially with the growth of social media outlets.
We’re keen on discovering more about manipulation methods in relation to food advertising and sharing our own experiences about this subject.
Let’s find out more together!
Joana Pereira
Hello, my name is Joana. I hope you enjoyed watching my biosketch.
I tend to pay more attention to what I eat during the times I don’t feel comfortable with my appearance I tend to notice more how many food ads are around me (especially unhealthy ones).
In this project me and my colleges are going to approach the effects of food advertising on society and how companies manipulate us into buying, as well as their techniques. And maybe you will find the answer as to Why don’t we see ads for healthy food?
