Arden I'm commenting on your video because a group member of mine had technical difficulties.
Your video was very good. Your choice of perspective was a good one. Since you didn't use a webcam the video showed more than just your facial expression.
I think that your main idea from your video and your comment afterwards was that you were sort of immersed in your own world. You were unaware of the life around you. As your say in your comment you forgot about the video and that you were being taped.
I felt the same way as you after watching my video. I thought about how i could have spent the time better by being outdoors and experiencing life that wasn't a screen.
As good as your video and comment were I think if you wanted to make it better you could expand on what you were feeling when the video was being taken. What about the two minutes did you find most important? Does this video make you want to change anything about the way you use technology?
The video makes me think of all the things i should have been doing. also for some reason i think it has something to do with the point of view your video was shot from I realize how much we rely and use our thumbs over anything else.
Evan Ritscher, well what can i say thanks for choosing to comment on my video. your comment was really thoughtful and very helpful, i appreciate it. :)
The questions you posed after watching my video where very useful to me. They fit exactly into my writing, which allowed me to expand my thinking.
I wrote what i thought about technology in a vague point of view. i was looking at the overall perspective. From your comment i think it would be helpful to also look at smaller aspects of my video.
you mentioned that your feelings were the same after watching your own video. i think all these video leave us with that same feeling. almost a feeling of disappointment.
Show from all these videos and comments technology takes over a big part of our lives. but i still wonder... Do we care enough to change?
I enjoyed watching your video because as far as i could tell you werent acting or putting on a front in the video, it really portrayed the way we act using media devices.
I think the main thing i realized about your video is how distracted we get when we use media and how much we miss out on that is going on around us. When i walk down the street and text while simultaneously listening to my ipod i realize how much in the outer world i am or could be missing out on.
Your video was similar to mine in that it was very simple and straight forward, which was the point in this assignment. As a matter a fact, the first video i recorded, i tried and made it seem interesting and when watching it i realized how completely obvious it was that i was acting and how stupid i looked doing it. i immediately deleted that video! I think not just for you but for most students it was more interesting to watch a student use an electronic device as opposed to just using the actual computer. It just made it easier to see how people are using media and the affects both negative and positive on them.
