Most of the groups posed a question in the beginning of their video and then went on to answer it throughout the video. All of the groups also used music effectively. Cydney’s group had heavy metal music in the beginning to get your attention. Allie’s group had dramatic music during the part when Brad was walking through the school trying to get to class on time. Most groups also used editing effectively. After someone they interviewed would say something they disagree with they would post the question on the screen and then go on to try and counter their point. I thought music was the most effective tool that all the groups used. It draws the audiences attention from the beginning and if used correctly, can persuade people from one viewpoint to another. However if used incorrectly it can reduce the quality of the video. The group's videos reminded me of Supersize Me. The interviews were all pretty similar to the ones Spurlock did. We would ask the question and if it was something we didn't necessarily agree with then we would try and show our viewpoint. Overall I think all the groups did a good job of using music and editing effectively to create a quality video.
