Analysis

The previous class did a very nice job on their videos. I found the most effective videos to be the Rich Rodriguez video and the one to stop Republican whining. I found these videos to be the most effective ones because they were short, had a clear message, and easy for the average person to understand. The Rich Rodriguez video was most effective in that I could relate to it, since I am a current student here at the University. I saw how horrible the 2008 season went for the new coach therefore, it was funny to me. The videos that I did not find effective were the long political ones, specifically the one that was over three minutes. It did not hold my attention and the red color text was more distracting and hard to read. Although very well done videos, I feel that most of the political videos were boring because they did not appeal to my sense of humor and mixed too many clips for me to follow. The "cracker" video was difficult to understand. I still don't know what the point of it was. As a positive part of the video, I found that the text popping up on the screen was effective because that was the part of the video that grabbed my attention and kept me watching. Overall, they were all good videos, but the ones that were short, I could relate to, and appealed to my sense of humor were the most effective and enjoyable.
