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.
I picked a Jenna Marble video , "how to trick people into thinking you're good looking". This video has been viewed by a lot people. The video is effective in the way that teenagers and young adults can laugh at the irony of how girls make themselves look pretty. Now a days we see the youth wearing make up and dressing older than they are. Jenna Marble is pointing it out in a humorous way and even speaking about how she herself can fit the "pretty" standards. If this was produced by a media TV channel it probably wouldn't be as funny. The reason why people watch these sorts of videos because they can relate and can see themselves doing this video. People don't want scrips and actors and other nonsense. They want real life people,people doing it themselves and real life issues. The video would be a high quality and not jumping from scene to scene but thats what makes the video unique and make viewers watch it.
My girlfriend watches these Jenna Marbles all the time. She gets excited when Jenna posts a new one every wednesday. These videos are very popular because just like you said, girls feel like they can relate to what shes saying and feel like they can laugh about it too. These videos are a very effective way to grab viewers by creating interesting topics and making people laugh in the process.
Wow, the transformation that make up does is pretty amazing. This just enlightened me to what women look like just before they leave their homes. Interesting enough she wasn't too attractive in the beginning but at the end she was kinda pretty.
Wow, that was very funny. I totally agree with you, you made a great point when you said "The video is effective in the way that teenagers and young adults can laugh at the irony of how girls make themselves look pretty.

I do wear makeup and I do straighten my hair because I think it makes myself look more attractive.
