Unit 1 wrap-up

After creating the memes, it was cool to really jump into to looking deeply into social media platforms. As we observed ones like Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, we were each assigned a group to find different analytics. I was assigned youtube along with my group members.

We then talked about each person being assigned a task which will go towards our overall theme, which is how to utilize youtube. As I continue to do more and more research it'll be cool to not  only learn the new things I am discovering, I am also excited to see what my group mates have discovered as well. It's like when you began to research something you thought you knew, the statistical parts of it I'm sure will make me see it in a whole new light.

We each assigned ourselves different roles to breakdown the true analytics of youtube. So far we plan to make a video voice over as our platform. So basically it would be a literal youtube video. We also are going to find a cool image to use as "clickbait". Honestly I am excited to look deep into youtube and understand why I myself was such a huge fan of it as well.

This unit has taught me so much regarding the use of social media platforms and the ranking system called a lisicle. I knew what the layout of a listcle was as we are all familiar with specific things being ranked, I never knew there was a technical term for it. And to finally be able to create one of my own, was awesome. I got to not only talk about anime, but to choose a favorite topic to rank certain items of my choosing.

The topic which I chose was ranking the top best 7 anime season 1 sequences   Listcle.pdf  (yes that is the title), which was super cool to do. Anime openings are something that I watch daily as an advent anime watcher, but seeing them in that light made me look at them completely different. Going back watching the openings made me point out things that I haven't seen before and I have more respect for the animators.

I also, began to see the colors in a whole new way and how they really capture the eye. Now after every anime I watch I will be looking out for elements that make cool openings.
