Description

  • What my video is going to be about:
I'm going to do my video about how I am vegan, and promoting veganism. I can say how happy I am being a vegan, tell about what i've noticed has changed since I began, and report some facts about animal products and industrial farming.
Then I can show some great vegan foods, in particular some foods that you wouldn't expect to be vegan. I could also maybe show me eating a good vegan meal and show the meal and how good it looks, and tell how easy it was to make.

To be about/focus on (what about you)
Veganism


What is going to happen in the video, what is the gimmick/plot?
it is showing people how happy and easy veganism can be


What commercial type is it?
combination of demonstration and others

Explain your idea well enough to have a conversation about it.
I will get a few interesting facts to persuade or teach people about veganism, maybe even dispelling certain general preconceived notions.

12 questions

1. How did his video resume help Trent?
There was a huge viewer population that was being reached, and

2. What did the employer say about the video with regard to hiring Trent?
He said he wouldn't have ended up hiring him because he wouldn't have noticed him as much if it was one of the 50 paper resumes.

3. What advantages does a video resume have over a paper resume?

Most companies and Bosses get paper resumes, and no video resumes. A video resume could show more creativity and energy, and extra work put in to making it.

4. What did you like about these video resumes?
They were more creative and gave room for more information to be given, and they showed personality of the person.

5. What did you dislike?
People can go overboard or be weird.

6. What is your opinion of the quality of the video?
The quality of ben's video was a little bit poorer than some of the others, because it was a little blurry and shaky.

7. What would you do to make your video better than these?

Make sure that the sound is equal and the camera isn't shaking and the lighting is good.

8. Which video did you like best?
I liked the last video the best.

9. WHY did you like that video best?
I liked it because it shared a little bit more information than the rest, but not much. It also wasn't creepy like the first one.

10. Which did you like least?
I didn't like the first one.

11. WHY?

The movie looked like the girl's pictures were from a horror movie. I found them very disturbing, and she didn't have good examples of her work.

12. At this point, thinking about the videos you just saw, and what you wrote about yourself yesterday, what ideas do you have for your promotional video.

Maybe I could pick a certain skill I have and promote it like I want to work for somebody or sell that skill to someone, like cooking, baking, or something.

I changed my mind

Persuasive video

I'm goign to do my persuasive video on animal testing, persuading that animal testing is wrong.
I will show cute healthy animals that are tested on a regular basis in testing plants, show products people use that are tested on these animals, and then show the animals after they have been used for different chemicals.

persuasive video idea

Persuasive Video:

Why not to trust food other people make

I will get the pictures online.
Ill get pictures of people doing gross things, like picking scabs and scratching their head and puking on their hands and going to the bathroom, then have more of them making food with their hands. I will also get pictures of people spitting on food or licking the dough or something like that, because I know other people must do it cause i do it all of the time. Then ill show unsuspecting people eating the food.
