Looking with Intention

 The three photos I created had a theme of horror or something deemed as scary. My one key component that I wanted is the component of eye contact. Looking at someone or something in the eyes can sometimes be seen as a threat. When eye contact is met it is met with intention, and I wanted the characters in this shoot have a look of intention whether it's staring at something or staring directly at the camera. 







        1Clay Shirky- How Social Media Can Make History 


        Quotes

        - "Media is increasingly  less a source of information , and its more a site of coordination"

        - "How can we make best use of this media? Even though it means changing the way we've always      done it


    2. Teens are making historical events go viral on TikTok – what does a history teacher think?

   
Quotes 

- "The teens have used technology real effectively but they've also used it appropriately. Sometimes someone will write an essay which is really lyrical and uses really complex grammar and high-level vocabulary but actually they are talking nonsense"

Response: I feel like in this generation there are more visual learners, and videos like this are great  examples of how you can use social media as a tool to provide information in an entertaining way. Entertainment is a way to the youth so making quick short videos on key components of history can be useful.

- " Everything you interact with that's written after an event whether it's five minutes or 500 years after the event- Its an interpretation of the past . This is a great way to help people appreciate that "
