My children and I watch the YouTube how-to video, try the dance on our own and with our Small Paul dolls, and discuss things YouTube including My Spoon is Too Big, talent, ratings, and juvenile humor.

I am merely commenting on how we seem to question our media no matter how real. I know this video is real but if something was scripted, it could be your daughter's answer. If i were your daughter's age and you asked me what college kids are studying on youtube, i probably say cute kittens & car crashes. I dont think i could come up with her intellectual answer and i wasnt expecting it given the silliness of this video. Perhaps im just dumb. Your kids are going to be serious scholars :-)

What makes this a home video is that the kids know they're on camera, but they are aware it's a home video camera. If these kids were put before a camera at NBC studios they would understand that these cameras were capturing them for a wide audience. Even though this video is for YouTube, the casualness of the home video allows them to be conscious of the camera while not simultaneously self-conscious.

We discussed in class that we interact with home movies differently because they are real. This video is clearly real. My question is when did our culture began to doubt videos that appear real? When the first kid is asked "what do the college students learn in class", her answer seems too formal for a kid's response, especially when compared to the second kid who has trouble responding. I doubt this part even though the video is real in all other aspects?

It's my daughter's REAL answer. That's who she is. Why do you doubt it/her? So interesting...

VIDEO WRITING TALK CONCLUSION: I conclude with one of my personal favorites, written in public, amateur, reflexive, visual, amateur, and convergence video writing styles, and utilizing humor, self-reflexivity, and some sincerity, too. Thanks for watching.
