1. What is your SAPSA about?
1. For our project we wanted to shed light on a stereotype that even though we believe it is light hearted and harmless, it actually has origins from a darker past. We want to find a solution to dispelling stereotypes and we believe that the first step is being aware and educated.
2. The stereotype we want to examine and hopefully see it used less in casual conversation is “Why Filipinos love to entertain.”
2. Who is your intended audience?
1. We want this to be watched by everyone. The topic of stereotyping is something that should be discussed in all environments and by all people.
3. Did you accomplish what you set out to do?
1. From what we gathered in our interviews, we believe yes. We had a theory, did some research, and got opinions - some aligned with ours. We will truly feel accomplished if we get any comments after our video is presented, hopefully these comments will validate us.
4. What were the challenges?
1. The challenge was getting the interviews together and editing the video in a way the flowed together and contained all the information we wanted to discuss in 5 minutes.
5. What would you have done differently?
1. Our group agrees that time was very valuable for this project. If we had started maybe a week, even half a week, earlier we could have more footage to choose from.
2. Also, consistency was a main factor. If we had worked in small sessions instead of long bursts throughout the quarter, the stress would probably not affect us as much as it did.
6. What is the future of your SAPSA?
1. We hope that our topic will be remembered when it is brought up in conversation. For example, there may be an instance where a student unknowingly uses a stereotype that is inherently inappropriate. The hope is that the student harks back to our video and corrects their actions.
2. The topic itself is something that affects our group everyday in that we are actually people of this stereotype - we love to perform. With this video we have a different perspective on ourselves and we will try to spread this perspective onto others as well.
