Jocelyn Centeno 1A Prescreening Review

Your guys video was really good and gave a good example of a situation where western medicine clashed with a more traditional medicine. It was interesting to see that the person you interviewed still used these medicines and she trusted them for her illness. It goes to show that some people do not need to rely on western medicine. One thing I have to say is that maybe you guys should add in why using eastern medicine techniques is the same or even better than western medicine. Maybe do a voiceover of going in depth with the subject and just explaining a bit more about why eastern medicine is not a "witch doctor" practice. My group used our phones to record (and an actual microphone) ourselves and it worked out alright, so maybe it could work for you. And another suggestion may be to fix the volume of the interviewers and try to interviews indoors so that we could hear them clearer. And when you interview them it is better to have the camera facing towards them so it feels like they are talking to the audience. In the beginning I also noticed you guys did not have a title page or anything to introduce what the topic was about so maybe add in a title page. Also, background information about the subject would be really helpful so that people understand a little bit of where you are coming from.

It was a really good video I liked the fact you guys did a skit so that it is not so robotic and information is not being spewed out at you. I understood what you guys were talking about: Western medicine versus Eastern medicine. I do not really understand who your target audience is though and I would like to hear another side of someone who does not agree and why. But you guys did a really good job!
