#hwa5 #160characters I think it made a claim by the phone. it was like archived if a of past relationship and viewers saw the private moment to what happened. but at the same time it’s structured because of narration and design, filmmakers showed us wha needed to be seen, showed reality.

#hwa5 #160characters I think the images and presentation of text messages , like the visuals and what not, kept me engaged on what each message meant to the location. like he used everyday text messages to show a message in a bigger picture

#hwa5 #160characters the claims are followed by photo evidence to help you empathize with the story. the speaker might not always be truthful, but with the photo evidence given, you are just forced to believe this stranger.

#hwa5 #160characters the fast paced transitions and limited words add to the narrative of the speakers hectic life. its so blunt it almost feels like they fr used 160 characters this whole video

#hwa5 #160characters #shortdocparty the shots and sounds feel like the you are following Victoria daily routine, from washing dishes, taking the bus, walking, etc. Its simple but effective to storytelling and how we decide to portray this story.

#hwa5 #160characters this film's quick shots, different frames and matching narration in the backgrounds allows good storytelling and visuals to match. It does invite room to question what happens next.

#hwa5 #shortdocparty #160characters i am enjoying this one a lot. I like the included text messages and sounds played in the background. It makes the shot feel alive.

#hwa5 #160characters The documentary here shows examples of how people use texting in everyday life which is very real, and it helps it claim truth about todays life of modern communication.

#hwa5 #160characters #shortdocparty Already from the jump with the ringtones, you are hooked to why the sound is playing

#hwa5 #160characters The documentarian here uses text messages which appear on the screen along with some interviews to show how people communicate through texting. It is different from the other ones we have seen, the idea is unique.

#hwa5 #160characters the doc makes claims to truth in a way that’s similar to like the first doc in that it uses images enhancing and matching the sound of the events transpiring to showcase a truthful perspective of a story

#hwa5 #160characters the doc uses the text sounds and real life sounds that match the environment of the images on the screen to emphasise how rooted in reality the doc is and how it sticks close to home for the view bc these are familiar sounds

#hwa5 #160characters the uses special effects to try and turn the past into the present. Showing writing in "real-time" the text messages that already happened

#hwa5 #160characters The documentarian uses the sound of typing to represent speed. In certain moments it will speed up or slow down. To add claims to truth of the texts but it already happened. Its a performance of what the director imagined or remembered

#hwa5 #160characters Claims to truths are the text messages since it's direct evidence of Victoria and J's interaction, and each message has Victoria's emotions attached to them, telling the viewers a story. These messages are her truths.

#hwa5 #160characters All 3 zones were working in tandem to tell a story... the music, sound effects, the visuals of daily life with the text messages and typing... the technology was well integrated into her life. All we have are the messages, her experiences, and feelings to piece the story-

#hwa5 #160characters the truth claim here feels really personal. it’s basically the author telling their story of growing up with a mostly absent father and a single mom carrying the weight of everything. the film hints at the mother’s quiet grief through those messages and memories.

#hwa5 #160characters the structure mixes quick flashes of daily life with slower still moments when the texts appear. you hear the natural sounds of the places instead of music most of the time. it feels like the film is trying to show a really ordinary life story.

It never really shows their faces, yet it shows us texts and stories of their relationship. It is not fully truthful because we do not know them. But the text and sounds make it seem like we do. #hwa5 #160characters

The sound being so interactive and common in our everyday lives makes it seem common. Like this could happen to anyone. It makes it seem more human in a sense. #hwa5 #160characters

The background noise, like the beeping and typing made it feel realistic, like I was living it. #hwa5 #shortdocparty #160characters

#hwa5 #160characters
This doc makes claims to truth as they capture moments throughout their life in which technology is slowly becoming more advanced and useful for Victoria.

#hwa5 #160characters
This documentary uses all 3 elements to perfection. Victoria and Jim's lives are followed with effects, sound, and images that shape how technology has affected their lives.

The doc uses what appear to be real images and uses texting as a way to show what is going on #160characters #hwa5

I thought the baby's heartbeat noises and texting sounds really pulled me in and made this even more intense. Also the 99.99..... really made this intense. This whole doc overall was so unsetteling #160characters #hwa5

the truth is about the story of single parent raising as well as online dating. it represents both the world from then and now. online dating is so normalized now and single parenting with parents abandoning their partners after birth is so real to the world we live in today #hwa5 #160characters

a well produced film. again with a serious tone for the doc as well as editing and imagery and text sounds to show the narration of this story. its structured to show the relationship, breakup, pregnancy, and growing up of their son. the world building was honestly phenomenal #hwa5 #160characters

The showcase of technology is shown in which Victoria wasn’t able to take a picture of Jimand his dad when they were out. As technology has changed they were able to capture tons moments in their lives with new technology. #hwa5 #160characters

All three engage with the documentary to give this a timely feel of the past while also making it engaing. We see the lives of Victoria and Jim and how technology shaped them. #hwa5 #160characters

#hwa5 #160characters This documentary claims truth in the narrator's story of being a single mother, and her experience with the story telling of how she came to meet, then conceive, then raise her son on her own. She provides images, documents, receipts, and even reenacts the timeline.
