A movie about Facebook. Made this after reading about facebook everyday in the news. A lot of what was said seemed like it would make more sense if explained in a little movie... so that's that.

Thanks Raleigh Caruso for helping!

    I really liked the video. I am glad I saw it cause I have recently had some problems with facebook. Evidently it can take multiple months for changes to your privacy settings to take effect. And there is absolutely no one to ask if there are problems. Guess I'm glad I don't put personal real world information on my facebook.

    Thanks again for the great videos.

    I know you say that no one is forcing you to join Facebook, however,it is becomming increasingly more difficult not to join. For example, if I want to comment on a story that appears on a major network's website, they require that I sign into Facebook or Twitter to do so. I suppose they trust Facebook to be a filter for them or to gather information for them as well. That's kinda scary. So far I have resisted except for creating a fake account in order to vote for a friend's charity to receive a large sum of cash from Chase Bank. She won, so it was worth it.

    White balance! Please white balance... If you're wondering why everything looks yellow... white balance is the answer.

    Nice content though!

  • Casey Neistat plus 1 year ago
    i can't figure out how to adjust the white balance on my camera. its a canon t2i.
  • Nathan David Smith 1 year ago
    Then try and grade it in post-production - you should be able to adjust colour balance, brightness, contrast, and even white balance in your editing software.
  • O'Ryan McEntire 1 year ago
    @ Casey, I have the T2i as well. If you take a picture of something that is white(like a piece of paper) in the environment your shooting, then set the white balance to custom. Then go into your menu and on the fourth tab over there is a custom white balance setting. hit set and it will ask you to select a photo. select the one you just took and BAM! white balance is set.

    Now if you have a 18% gray card to set it with it would work better but any white surface will do nicely. (just don't forget to change it if you go into a different lighting situation.

    I find that the AWB setting works pretty decent too.
    I'm not a fan of how canon set that up on the T2i.
  • northamerican 1 year ago
    casey, the lack of white balance adds to the arts and crafts feel of your videos and show. although it's neat to learn features of a camera an awb, maybe it's best you left it off :3

    Once we post a picture on Facebook it no longer is ours', it is the property of facebook. Seperate from this,
    I watched a clip on you tube, (9 clips in all) from Planet Green/Planet 100 it was about Facebook, I deleted from facebook.

  • Describe: When i watched the video i saw a guy who talks about facebook. He talks about how facebook gives information to the public and you yourself dosmt even know it. He also talks about how money is involved and how they make money off of your personal information. I was like "Damn, that's really cool".

    Analysis: The work was organized because in the beginning he talks about facebook and how and why facebook works. The elememts of cinemaphotography was used in this video because the inportant things was usually a close-up and the other things were used in diffrent camera angles. The story telling was clear because the guy who was talking is very understandable and the story itself was understandable, the guy only sticked to that one topic and didnt go off subject. The artist choice of work is simple. He just sticks with a simple homemade collage of facebook and how things work. The things that caught my attention in the video was that all the papers was moving by itself and that was cool because i wonder how they do that.

    Interpret: The Theme is Facebook and its privacy, The moods i get from this video is happiness is that his interpret his story with energy and full of life and with creative little drawn papers that makes it entertaining to watch. i think the work means that we should read, be careful or do something not boring before we accept things ..man they should make those agreeing things more fun or make a video like this guy made but he created this work because he wanted to show us the real dangers of accepting in somethings we don't know to be more careful, or he wants to get revenge on facebook because he curint finish his conversation with his brother in iraq and he's angry.But he is very artistic, u can see comedy he takes the world by its simple and funny , simple minded but in his own creative way

    Evaluate:My feelings for the artwork did in fact change because when I first saw it I thought it was gonna be useless but I now know that the artwork is indeed very significant in this video in order for you to understand it.I changed my mind after I tried to understand the video without the artwork because the first time that I watched the video I actually skipped the artwork and by the end I was completely lost so I had to watch it again.The second time I watched the video I understood it much more because I had watced the artwork. What I learned is that even the most simple artworks can make a big impact.I am gonna try to be a little more simplistic yet complex with my work to make it more significant to my specific audience.I still consider Facebook a friend but now that I know how it works I'm gonna be more cautious with what I share.

  • From Austin:

    Describe: well i seen this guy talkin about how facebook private settings work, and this cool things he does with paper like little animation , and my impression about this video umm this is kinda weird a movie about facebook? hahahah

    Analysis: The work was organized because in the beginning he talks about facebook and how and why facebook works. The elememts of cinemaphotography was used in this video because the inportant things was usually a close-up and the other things were used in diffrent camera angles. The story telling was clear because the guy who was talking is very understandable and the story itself was understandable, the guy only sticked to that one topic and didnt go off subject. The artist choice of work is simple. He just sticks with a simple homemade collage of facebook and how things work. The things that caught my attention in the video was that all the papers was moving by itself and that was cool because i wonder how they do that.

    Interpret:
    the theme of this video is about facebook, and i noticed that the mood of it is kind of like a "Just to let you know" kind of mood. Like fun, but still gets the main focus out. The work is about how facebook is a little shaky with privacy. I think the author created this video specifically for the facebook users, and he is trying to warn them, and keep users on guard. I think the authors view of the world is positive, but still yet curious.

    Evaluate: My feelings did change a little about the artwork. It feels more important now, that it has a key role in the story. Without the art, the movie would have probable been a jumbled mess of words. I changed my mind after I analyzed the video more. I need to be more simplistic with my own art so that my audience will be able to understand. I also need to take into account how certain art applies more to certain people of certain ages. I think facebook is a friend with a hidden agenda. While it openly explains what could happen, they do it in a way where most people wouldn't even bother therefore giving them the chance to do whatever they like.
