Short Video Experience...

For our video group project, we decided to make a video about a topic and concern everyone has with themselves and with others. We decided to pick a question and get people to answer it on film; If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? We each came up with different questions originally, but decided that this was the best one and that it would be great for people to answer. We thought we may even be able to get some interesting comments about people and what they really thought of themselves. Here is a list of some of the answers we recieved.

- Love Handles
- Big Feet
- Want to be more athletic
- Younger
- Taller
- More outgoing

Most of the answers we recieved were about peoples physical self, but nothing drastic like being fat and wanting to get skinny, or not being anorexic etc. The one answer I personally thought was really good was the last one on the list; to be more outgoing. The impact was big because the person getting interviewed was on the co-ed study floor, and it seemed like his personality was really outgoing just by talking to him for a second. I liked how he was serious about his answer, and was really honest about everything. I think the actions people do show their personalities more than their personalities show themselves...if that makes sense.

In the end, we had some computer and file compatibility issues and did not even get to create the video, we were just left with the clips of these indivduals which made us a little mad after all the running around we did to get the clips.

Technology rules...but it sucks sometimes too!
