Day 2.

Today we did a lot of exercises and mingling games.
I think that this was pretty useful and fun. It helps us all get comfortable with one another, we also gain a lot of communication in doing so. I think I like this rather than just getting straight to hands on work. Because it gives the group a chance to get know each other, get a little comfortable and helps us get enthused into doing activities.




For the assignment that we were set yesterday I Chose a music video; Somebody I use to know- Gotye, Ft. Kimbra.
The reason I chose this music video. I like it because it is very emotional and simplistic and at the same time, Surreal.
I like it because this music video gives me a sense of familiarity, it also at the same time makes me a little sad.

I like the colours in this video, they are very natural and the shapes are very surreal.

i like the concept of the video that the two people are blaming each other for what is clear to be their past relationship, and are in they seem to be just standing next to each other.. But in the sense of this.. It feels like they are further apart than the video lets on, just they could be thinking the same things at the same time.

I like the movements in this video they are very surreal but subtle,
The colours are natural but still manage to stand out quite vividly.
I also like that the two subjects in this video are the same colour as the walls. Like they are the back ground. I think in some way it gives this music video a sense of a theme. I personally am a major fan of theme, because it's organised and I think it makes things look a lot tidier.




I chose two extra videos to write about because these two I also like. This one that I have chosen is; Who's laughing now- Jessie J. I'm not normally a huge fan of this artist but I like this video. I like this video because it's something I used to had to put up with through out my life. I like this video because it gives me a sense of victory. Cause I know that a lot of the people that used to say hurtful things to me in school aren't really doing so well in their lives as I am, and I don;t mean that as a personal attack. I talk to a lot of these people now and have grown past the names and the bullying..  But I know that they could have done so much better with their lives. Which is often a reoccurring theme in bullying, is that the victim tends to do better in their lives.. I like this video also because it reminds me that I have over come such things in my life.


I like this video because it's a sense of rebellion. She has just broken up with her boyfriend and now she's alive and doing what she likes. Maybe she always wanted to join the marines. It was just suppressed?
This song as well gives me a sense of familiarity  also in some sense too it makes me happy knowing that men cannot hold any woman back, I guess.
