Creating in Web 2.0? [101.13]

In the world of user-generated content, each one of us is capable of becoming an overnight sensation. As we observe, discuss, and analyze Web 2.0, we will start to unravel what it means to live in Web 2.0. But mostly—as this is above all a writing course—from the first day of class, we will compose an exploration of the many forms and types of media that make up our daily experiences. In doing so, we will compose a living record of the what it means to create and compose in Web 2.0.

ENG User Generated Content

This video was done by my best friend Didi, and it is a very effective video because she took a personal aspect of her life and transformer it into a poem that will hopefully give hope to those that suffered the same way that she did. The tone in which she recites the poem changes from a weak girl to someone who grew stronger over time and I think that this conveys the message that no person should give up but should keep on fighting. The poet took an aspect of her life and changed it into a message of hope and of God's power. If this video was produced by a traditional media,such as a television channel, then the video would be of better quality and it would have probably been in the form of a commercial or a documentary on social or domestic issues.
