Korean Netiquette

After watching the “­­Korean Netiquette” documentary, I saw several differences from the "The Archive" and "Anxiety". One of the major differences was that, the reporter is seen throughout the documentary, which gave it more a news like feel. But it still had focused on one main issue of Internet education in Korea. It starts out in the classroom as the teacher is teaching in Korean with subtitles on the bottom of the screen, which grabs the viewer’s attention. There are voice-overs and also interviews in the documentary that conveys all the information the viewers needed to know. There is mostly no background noise creating a more serious tone, but as they look at the signs in the hallway, you start to hear voices of young elementary students singing about Internet etiquette in Korean, which is also how the video ends. I think the singing gives the video a less serious tone. The transitions in the video is the camera moving from outside the school to a classroom, down the hallway and into a different classroom, each of these transitions switches who is being interviewed or changes the topic slightly. There has been no editing to the environment, making it feel very authentic as if the viewer was in the school as well. The one thing I did not like is having the reporter seen in the documentary because he did not add anything extra. I think that if a teacher at the school did the documentary, then it would make since for her to be seen in the video but not just a random reporter.
