Time to Think 1930s and Project 1920s Optimism: Media Not Insulated from Financial Meltdown

NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- I Wanna Be On®, the innovative social media research and production company, has been receiving numerous inquiries from current clients and other media players regarding the financial market meltdown and has been advising clients to think about media projects and strategies that reflect more positive messages for short-term projects.

Vincent Presti, the company's CEO, claims:

"We are living in perilous times that require both established entertainment conglomerates and start-ups to integrate 1930s-type propaganda messages in their entertainment projects.  The public is stretched and worried about the financial future and will increasingly look to media outlets for reassurance that the future will be better than today.  That said, we have been advising clients to think about pro-American and pro-Capitalist stories with Horatio Alger-type characters to deflect audience attention away from negative economic news."

I Wanna Be On's media models have also identified that audiences are tending to more conservative themes, especially in Western Europe.  That said, I Wanna Be On suggests that clients and media players consider political-oriented thriller projects that reflect this conservative sentiment to ensure box office and television ratings success.
