To The Bone- Ethical Issues- 



 To the bone is a Netflix original movie depicting Anorexia and other eating disorders shared by the characters such as bulimia and chronic exercise. When i watched this movie I thought it seemed fairly true to form, and doesn't poke fun at the illness as other characters defined by their anorexia in media have before it. The movie doesn't glorify the illness and shows realistic issues that it can cause such as the loss of a child, fainting, and back problems from over exercising. However the film drummed up a lot of controversy as the main character played by Lily Collins shows her methods of not eating, how she checks her weight and stays fit. Many people thought this could have been taken as advice to those suffering with the illness, leading to a petition to get it banned. Obviously this didn't go through and the film remains. The film also got lash back for inaccuracies, saying that every case isn't like this. To which Lily Collins responded saying she's aware and wanted to share her personal insight and experiences.

The movie does a good job depicting the negatives of the illness, and tries its best not to glorify the mental illness.

Answer all questions. Section A 1(a)  Identify two costs that Ian needs to consider when developing the 247Me app and explain how these costs impact on the project. (6) Despite doing target research through a local market research company to lower costs, this is still a big cost Ian should consider and keep in mind while budgeting as the target research will help make this app look appealing to the 14-24 year old target, which have very different tastes and opinions. Another cost would be paying his personnel, Ella and Josh, to do the physical creation and design of the app itself which if they need help since Ella is a new graphic designer, you may need to hire and pay outside assistance to come in and aid the project.  (b)  Identify one type of project management tool that Ian could use to keep track of the project tasks and explain why it is suitable for this task.  (3) For this project, since there is only...
