In this blog post, I am going to compare my rough draft from the rough version from last week.
Selection from Rough Cut
There has been a variety of instances of sexism within the comics, both within the books and in the movies as well. Consistently there are characters like Lois Lane or Mary Jane Watson who are only used as a plot device and as damsels in distress for the hero to save. Very rarely are these women shown to make decisions that are obvious and rational that would ensure that they avoid any sort of trouble. They are written to ignore the obvious circumstances, thus leading to the male hero to save them, or possibly leading to their untimely death.
Re-edited Selection
Seen here, starting at :42
The content did not extensively change from the rough cut to the rough draft, as it was all about placing the rough cut into the form of the video essay. I do believe that the content is being communicated better overall in the video than the script because it places a context around the words that I am saying. It shows that these issues are culturally significant, and have been shown in a variety of different mediums.
The form completely changed in order to better fit the conventions of a video essay. I placed all of the words into audio form, and then supported them with videos as well. I believe that it is displayed far more effectively in this way because the audience is able to maintain full engagement rather than just read all of the words.
