So much so little

What was interesting about this short vlog was the black shading around the screen that allows viewers to only focus on what it is that the creator wants them to and makes viewers feel like we are seeing it through her eyes and her POV (it reminds me of Being John Malkavich). Also I found it interesting that the creator of this vlog used video clips in the shape of photographs and kind of created a scrapbook of photos from here life. To me it is representative of our memory. Our memory is not continuous, similar to film, it is made up of shots, bits and pieces. So in order for her to give viewers a look into her life she first indicates that it is through her eyes, how she sees herself and how she sees others view her, and also that it is the bits and pieces she can seem to recall. I'm not sure how to attach a link so here is the direct link in case it doesn't work.
