Artists Statement

Video is how I choose to create my work. Often the videos I create relate to forms of media a topic that has captured my attention. I also do videos reviewing and discussing gaming as a form of media. I feel using video to express my ideas makes it easier for people who want to listen to me. It allows them to understand what I am saying not only by hearing the words but by also hearing my tone. I find myself writing on the same topics if I cannot make a video. I try to make my videos fun but make sure the point I’m discussing is understood. When I'm doing a video I try to cover the thoughts and opinions of both sides of the matter. 

The news motivated me to create my own media and discuss with others. Media has dropped to entertaining the viewers first and informing second. Technology has developed to where it can help a lot in media. The internet can connect you to anyone in the world. Gaming is a piece of media that is useful. Many games stories touch on real life, social, and economical issues as well as stories from other cultures. They make people think about issues in the world. The number of people blogging and making videos on these games to discuss them proves this. To inform on unnoticed topics, events and other cultures while giving both sides equal time is what I try to put in my work.
