209 has been like watching YouTube videos for hour and hours and going down a YouTube rabbit hole and then coming to the idea of "what am i even watching right now" this made me laugh and i could not relate to this quote any more
I actually was completely shocked that I did not write a single thing in this class - even though on my schedule it said it was a creative writing class. However, I was pleasantly surprised
I liked the jump cuts to the "experts" and then back to your videos and your own monlogues. I think this again can relate to the concept of what is an expert and how you do not need to be an expert to teach a proper lecture
I think a big aspect of your project was expert hood - you bend the idea that your exercises and techniques as someone who isn't an expert are more helpful and better for you than the massive men you show who end up injuring themselves
I really enjoyed this project for multiple reasons however I thoroughly feel as if I am walking away from this project with a new outlook - I do waste food and I do waste seeds that I could be using to make more food and to make my life more sustainable and help the planet
At the 4:00 mark - "We have been conditioned to think that these seeds are garbage." I could not agree with this more - when I cut open an avocado to eat, I never consider planting that seed to make more avocados - I immediately throw it away
"Now we're going to be mushing and mashing for the next 30 minutes..." this was hilarious and again relates back to the concept of r/Reality and bending the concept of a lecture - loved it!
at the 2:32 mark I really enjoyed the added sound effects - one in particular when you were adding the cereal to the bowl you mentioned how it was chalky and it made a glass-shattering sound when it hit the bowl - i loved this element and it sounded real to me
Something I really enjoyed about this film was the continuous weaving of outside clips that the audience would recognize - it really enhanced the monotoned speaker and the fact that the speaker was monotoned added an additional layer of the 209'ness of this video
