Video Story Idea

Story Idea
Our story idea is to look at how relationship have been affected by social media.  We've recently noticed how unsocial people are, even if they're around others, simply because they were easily distracted by social media.  We want to look at how different it is in interaction via social media versus in person.  Looking specifically at quality of relationships, number of close friends and how we interact in day to day lives, because of these new outlets.

Structure:
Hey! You, See, So.
-Hey: compare two friendships one in a personal interaction one with no interaction in person, hanging out but on phone
-You: This is something everyone has been through, it's pretty unavoidable, even just witnessing it.  So it applies to you.
-See: interviews describing relationships with examples.  We'll look at both pros and cons
-So: Offer some solutions. but leave it open to viewer to see their own lives and how Social Media has affected them and if they need to change.

Text Component: 

In addition to containing some of the narrative of the video the text would also include more statistics on this problem, as well as links to websites that help offer solutions. Specifically it has been brought to our attention that there are things that can block a person from accessing their Facebook for a period of time.  The text component will allow us to expand on different topics (Psychology study) that might not be quite as interesting in video format. We want to ensure that both of them supplement each other, yet we don’t want anyone to have to read/view both in order to fully understand our topic.


Interviews:
-Students/Random People whoever we find
-Look into...there is probably some organization on campus that deals with the issue
-Grad Students (Psychology) (Facebook with Friends Psychology Study)

First Lab Day

Hey, I'm Haley Cavazos, a freshman journalism major here at the University of Texas at Austin.  I am from Frisco, Texas (about thirty miles north of Dallas).  Along with the New York Times and CNN, I also religiously check everything entertainment!

One of my partners is Jacob from Arlington, TX.  He is also a freshman journalism major, who enjoys writing and watching sports.  His favorite sport is football.  His favorite news site is CNN.

My other partner is Raven from Houston, TX.  She is junior journalism major.  She enjoys watching and talking about different TV shows, especially Supernatural!  This, I can relate to!  Her favorite news site is NPR.

I am a dancer and an animal lover!! I absolutely love my two dogs back at home.

 
And since I am a dancer and having danced all through out high school, I enjoy watching dance videos in my spare time.  I like to think they make me better by learning from other talented dancers.  One of my favorite dancers is Jordan Casanova from So You Think You Can Dance season 8.
