Hi guys!

 

 

I hope that my video encourages you to think about issues and questions you may have never considered before and that my video walks the line between being somewhat informative yet thought-provoking at the same time.

 

Let me know what you think!

Hey Hannah, I enjoyed your video. It's an interesting, current, and important topic and you did a nice job putting it together. 

Thank you Mason! I really appreciate that. 

The music and opening materials do a nice job of pulling the viewer in. I wonder about turning down the volume of the music a bit sooner after the intro. I also like the way the typing engages the viewer. For some of the transitions--e.g., around 1:15, the pacing might be picked up a bit. I wonder about the visual with the folks from Dartmouth. I'm kind of expecting a quote or clip when I see the panel. I don't feel like the scrolling through the tweets is as effective as it might be. I'm having some trouble tracking the movement. And perhaps focusing on one or two tweets more directly makes sense. The typing that comes in next is helpful in guiding the viewer. I like the way the video wraps up. Perhaps some more direct contrast with the tweets in the middle section would help with the juxtaposition that comes up toward the end. Nice work.
