                  I’m Jessie Lin, 25 years old and straight out of Taipei, Taiwan. I am
                  a dream seeker. My love and passion for the art of motion picture

                  decided to retake the joint college entrance examination only to

Taipei, Taiwan    After five years, I started to work and earn money on my own.

world, and then influence people.

After going through my substantial college life, my heart never fell
down with any failures but only became full-grown. I know I still have
a dream to seek. So, I moved from Taiwan to the U.S. to pursue an
MFA in Advertising Account Planning. One of the reasons I want to
become an account planner is because I believe people like me that

Business Pitch Plan For Midori Melon Liqueor
ADV 800 Directed Study | 2009 Fall
Instructor: Shauna Axton, Ryan Riley
BRAND POSITION
            We reach young professional women by delivering an image of aperitif which marks the
            transition from the working day into the evening meal, allowing one to savor the evening's
            food, conversation and their socializing experiences. You can dress up or keep deliciously
            simple. It can’t be denied that every new drink is based on a classic, if you don’t understand
            the classic, its’ tough to understand what makes a great cocktail.” MIDORI may not be
            based on a classic, but is “in a classic style” because it is made with all spirits and has the
            finest quality of non-artificial ingredients.


            THE AUDIENCE
            The maturing socializer, specialize in professional female in 25-32 years-old.


            INSIGHTS OF THESE GIRLS
            Modern, on-the-go women, who are ambitious, feeling good and enjoying life any given day,
            are more likely than others to regard enjoying life or having an exciting life as being among
            the most important values in life.
PROJECT 2
They are completely independent, both financially and emotionally.They would work service industry styled jobs and live on their own, not
dependent on family. They might define themselves by their career and all of the things that contribute to their success; fashion, beauty,
technology, health, etc. Consumerism drove everything they did. The life-style is best described as that of a ‘modern girl’, a young professional
woman who enjoy active lifestyles, which include nightclubs, casual dining, bars, concerts, and other forms of entertainment. They dine out
at least five times per month, go have drinks after work and may be apt to travel out of state many times per year to enjoy social or sporting
activities and shopping.


They are professional and active networkers who enjoy social engagements, dating and meeting new people on a weekly basis. Professional
success is a top priority, she is personally and financially invested in her work and she knows that to reach her goals she needs to get an
edge.


THE MESSAGE
Midori Suits Business And Pleasure.

MADE IN TAIWAN
When two million people fled the Chinese mainland and poured onto the shores of Taiwan in 1949,
there were already nearly eight million people living on the island. Many of the families of military forces
among the new immigrants gathered into what were termed dependent villages around the island.
Youngsters raised in these enclaves of mainlanders often clashed with native youth from surrounding
areas, whom the new arrivals derisively called “Taike” – literally, “Taiwan guests”.

For the special history and geography environment in Taiwan, culture identity has been shown more
complicated. The Taiwanese culture is a hybrid blend of Confucianist Han Chinese, Japanese,
European, American, global, local and Taiwanese aborigines cultures, which are often perceived in both
traditional and modern understandings. The common socio-political experience in Taiwan gradually
developed into a sense of Taiwanese cultural identity and a feeling of Taiwanese cultural awareness,
which has been widely debated domestically.

Reflecting the continuing controversy surrounding the political status of Taiwan, politics continues to
play a role in the conception and development of a Taiwanese cultural identity, especially in the prior
dominant frame of a Taiwanese and Chinese dualism.

In recent years, the concept of Taiwanese multiculturalism has been proposed as a relatively apolitical
alternative view, which has allowed for the inclusion of mainlanders and other minority groups in to the
continuing re-definition of Taiwanese culture as collectively held systems of meaning and customary
patterns of thought and behavior shared by the people of Taiwan.
"Taiwanese find new identity in an old insult "
EVOLUTION
Nowadays, much of the world is already aware
of the vitality and creativity that exists in Taiwan.
Taiwan is well-known for its technological
prowess, and is beginning to win recognition for
its cultural activity and artistic talent. As the 21st
century moves along, Taiwan is in line with the
trend toward globalization in making this creativity
and talent known to the rest of the world. This
means 21st century media such as the Internet
to let everyone enjoy a taste of Formosa Culture.

“Made in Taiwan” now is a label recognized
around the world; for decades, Taiwan has been
a leading exporter of products from bicycles to
consumer electronics.
台   ORIGIN OF TAIKE
客   What’s interesting about Tai-Ke is that it was once considered a bad word used by
    people outside the people in this societal group. With this very group now using
    it and embracing it, they have taken away the negativity of the word and have




文
    empowered themselves by making it their own.

    Taike is a term that has been bandied about and often abused by the media in
    Taiwan for the last decade or so. It has been identified both as a pejorative and as a
    point of pride for Taiwan natives, with definitions that vary according to the point of



化
    view of the speaker and the context as well. So what does ‘Taike’ really mean?


    DEFINITION
    For a term that has been so closely examined and so loosely used by the media,
    the entertainment world and segments of academia over the past decade or so,
    Taike still seems to be very elusive and hard to define.

    When the noun and adjective Taike is used, usually people are calling or describing
    somebody who is not elegant or has bad taste in clothes and no sense of style,
    perhaps even in the way they talk.

    Blue and white plastic slippers, chews betel nut, drinks energy drinks, smokes Mild-
    Seven, rides motocycles loudly, and anywhere anytime keeps the diao-ga shirt (the
    Taiwanese wife-beater) or flower-printed shirt rolled up to let the stomach breath.
When being piss off, every sentence begins with the word fuck, and so on. These are often part of the
act, and it's hip to study the Taiwan dialect of Chinese.

This dress and behaviour code, known loosely as "tai-ke", has been a minor rage for about 20 years
as Taiwan youth seek a distinctly local identity in the face of China's threats to declare the whole island
Chinese, social commentators say.

However, there is nothing wrong with being a Taike. But the image of a Taike should be changed.


A GUIDE TO MEDIA-MANUFACTURED "TAIKE" IMAGE
- Not highly educated
- Smokes Longlife Premium or Seven Stars cigarettes
- Speaks Mandarin with a heavy Taiwanese accent, peppering it with English
- Chews betel nut
- Wears flowery shirts from night markets, loose pants and blue and white flipflops.
- Hair is bleached, arms and legs covered with black tattoos
- All kinds of bling-bling, fingernails finished in ten different styles


FINDING TAIKE IN ENTERTAINMENT AND THE ARTS
By going through the media getting involved, Tai-ke has been the subject of media reports for most of this year. while the slight hasn’t completely lost its
sting, it has been soothed by the surging popularity of Taiwanese culture. “Taike” has entered the lexicon of cool. These days Taiwan youth are embracing the
“Tai-ke” culture, while at the same turning their noses up at the clothes of country folk, with their connotations of poverty.
LOOK INSIDE FOR DEFINITION
Taike is the spirit of men and women unafraid of their identity. It is the spirit of those who have forged their own freedom,
found their own way and are unafraid to approach the future by themselves.

Everything has happened here very quickly. The essence of being Taiwanese is change. Taike, too, is changing in context.
Even they’ve all been through the poor past, Taiwanese know how to balance respect for the past with growth for the
future. Many say if you want to see Chinese culture at its best, come to Taiwan. Taiwanese embrace their roots and add to
them the many other experiences of their past. They embrace and adapt.

By embracing the fad, the young have also realized how to separate the name taike from the original intended insult. They
have learned the freedom of the Fauves, who took glory in being called wild beasts and turned insult into celebration of
identity.

PROJECT SUMMARY 06
  Site Specific Life Insight For Media Planning
         ADV 800 Media Planning | 2009 Fall
    Instructor: Brady Baltezore , Joshua Brandau
THE BONE ROOM
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Bone Room specializes in natural science and all
things once living, The Bone Room is the place to come
for real bones, genuine fossils, quality bone and fossil
replicas, native and exotic insects, and all manner of
weird and wonderful things. They comb the world for
stock to please our artists, teachers, students, scientists
and collectors and can ship to international admirers as
well. But the only way to get a real idea of the store is to
explore their wares for ourselves!
STORY
  BEHIND PROJECT
The main goal for this project is to find out the insights
behind this store, and make people interested in this place.
However, coating research and making presentable seems
to be important in this particular project. But, what I was
thinking is in the way of visualizing, in the sense of creative
ideas, rather than going with my research and with my actual
skills as they are being thought. I got over that and then I
settle on a text/storyboard based on a film idea.
INSIGHTS
THE HINT "mounted butterflies & a jar of human's toes


After all I have been through, I felt that this is definitely an eclectic little corner of
berkeley. There doesn't have information or details as many as you expect, but it
does be a place where inspire people in different ways.


I believe that THE BONE ROOM is a place, where gives people the first step to
connect with this curious world, and to inspire you. Like the bedtime stories, it
always happened once upon a time, but what happened after once upon a time?
WE will see.

  • 38. MADE IN TAIWAN When two million people fled the Chinese mainland and poured onto the shores of Taiwan in 1949, there were already nearly eight million people living on the island. Many of the families of military forces among the new immigrants gathered into what were termed dependent villages around the island. Youngsters raised in these enclaves of mainlanders often clashed with native youth from surrounding areas, whom the new arrivals derisively called “Taike” – literally, “Taiwan guests”. For the special history and geography environment in Taiwan, culture identity has been shown more complicated. The Taiwanese culture is a hybrid blend of Confucianist Han Chinese, Japanese, European, American, global, local and Taiwanese aborigines cultures, which are often perceived in both traditional and modern understandings. The common socio-political experience in Taiwan gradually developed into a sense of Taiwanese cultural identity and a feeling of Taiwanese cultural awareness, which has been widely debated domestically. Reflecting the continuing controversy surrounding the political status of Taiwan, politics continues to play a role in the conception and development of a Taiwanese cultural identity, especially in the prior dominant frame of a Taiwanese and Chinese dualism. In recent years, the concept of Taiwanese multiculturalism has been proposed as a relatively apolitical alternative view, which has allowed for the inclusion of mainlanders and other minority groups in to the continuing re-definition of Taiwanese culture as collectively held systems of meaning and customary patterns of thought and behavior shared by the people of Taiwan.

Taiwan is well-known for its technological prowess, and is beginning to win recognition for its cultural activity and artistic talent. As the 21st century moves along, Taiwan is in line with the trend toward globalization in making this creativity and talent known to the rest of the world. This means 21st century media such as the Internet to let everyone enjoy a taste of Formosa Culture. “Made in Taiwan” now is a label recognized around the world; for decades, Taiwan has been a leading exporter of products from bicycles to consumer electronics.
  • 42. ORIGIN OF TAIKE 客 What’s interesting about Tai-Ke is that it was once considered a bad word used by people outside the people in this societal group. With this very group now using it and embracing it, they have taken away the negativity of the word and have 文 empowered themselves by making it their own. Taike is a term that has been bandied about and often abused by the media in Taiwan for the last decade or so. It has been identified both as a pejorative and as a point of pride for Taiwan natives, with definitions that vary according to the point of 化 view of the speaker and the context as well. So what does ‘Taike’ really mean? DEFINITION For a term that has been so closely examined and so loosely used by the media, the entertainment world and segments of academia over the past decade or so, Taike still seems to be very elusive and hard to define. When the noun and adjective Taike is used, usually people are calling or describing somebody who is not elegant or has bad taste in clothes and no sense of style, perhaps even in the way they talk. Blue and white plastic slippers, chews betel nut, drinks energy drinks, smokes Mild- Seven, rides motocycles loudly, and anywhere anytime keeps the diao-ga shirt (the Taiwanese wife-beater) or flower-printed shirt rolled up to let the stomach breath.
  • 43. When being piss off, every sentence begins with the word fuck, and so on. These are often part of the act, and it's hip to study the Taiwan dialect of Chinese. This dress and behaviour code, known loosely as "tai-ke", has been a minor rage for about 20 years as Taiwan youth seek a distinctly local identity in the face of China's threats to declare the whole island Chinese, social commentators say. However, there is nothing wrong with being a Taike. But the image of a Taike should be changed. A GUIDE TO MEDIA-MANUFACTURED "TAIKE" IMAGE - Not highly educated - Smokes Longlife Premium or Seven Stars cigarettes - Speaks Mandarin with a heavy Taiwanese accent, peppering it with English - Chews betel nut - Wears flowery shirts from night markets, loose pants and blue and white flipflops. - Hair is bleached, arms and legs covered with black tattoos - All kinds of bling-bling, fingernails finished in ten different styles FINDING TAIKE IN ENTERTAINMENT AND THE ARTS By going through the media getting involved, Tai-ke has been the subject of media reports for most of this year. while the slight hasn’t completely lost its sting, it has been soothed by the surging popularity of Taiwanese culture. “Taike” has entered the lexicon of cool. These days Taiwan youth are embracing the “Tai-ke” culture, while at the same turning their noses up at the clothes of country folk, with their connotations of poverty.
  • 44. LOOK INSIDE FOR DEFINITION Taike is the spirit of men and women unafraid of their identity. It is the spirit of those who have forged their own freedom, found their own way and are unafraid to approach the future by themselves. Everything has happened here very quickly. The essence of being Taiwanese is change. Taike, too, is changing in context. Even they’ve all been through the poor past, Taiwanese know how to balance respect for the past with growth for the future. Many say if you want to see Chinese culture at its best, come to Taiwan. Taiwanese embrace their roots and add to them the many other experiences of their past. They embrace and adapt. By embracing the fad, the young have also realized how to separate the name taike from the original intended insult. They have learned the freedom of the Fauves, who took glory in being called wild beasts and turned insult into celebration of identity.

They comb the world for stock to please our artists, teachers, students, scientists and collectors and can ship to international admirers as well. But the only way to get a real idea of the store is to explore their wares for ourselves!
  • 55. STORY BEHIND PROJECT The main goal for this project is to find out the insights behind this store, and make people interested in this place. However, coating research and making presentable seems to be important in this particular project. But, what I was thinking is in the way of visualizing, in the sense of creative ideas, rather than going with my research and with my actual skills as they are being thought. I got over that and then I settle on a text/storyboard based on a film idea.
