Response to Lecture Week 5

Todays lecture was based on Personal Narrative. The professor started off lecture by telling us about what makes a personal narrative. He gives off some terms for us to write down  about how it is based on the real and how it must include details. He showed us various video clips. One of my favorite ones was about this guy and his dad and how his dad ate at the same restaurant for about 25 years. This documentary was funny because there was humor engraved in this clip. Another clip was about the professors family in Christmas time. He showed how they interacted with one another and made the whole video from a toy camera. This was incredible because he was able to put this video together using a toy and make a great piece of art. He also showed us a video that explained the meaning of the Snap. It was really cool to learn about that because I have seen it before in tv shows and movies. He also showed us works from Sally Mann and her style to photograph her kids nude and call them art. Many people complained but she called it art. Overall this lecture taught me more about the meaning of Self Narrative.
