Excellent! You were one of our FLL judges. Hopefully you'll return this year to judge the World Class challenge. It will be a bit different and very diverse topic wise. You may even see gaming as a topic. Actually I can guarantee it.
**The best thing about your story… I really liked your video when you showed the audience what was on your desktop. Love the classic Star Trek stuff. I'm a huge fan. In 1994 I went to the (then) larges convention ever! I'm not sure if it is possible but if you could find a way to stabilize your webcam when your talking I think it would take away some of the roughness your referring to. **I would like to know more about…. you were pretty thorough, so I'm not sure what content you'd need to add. **One thing you should think about changing is……There is an odd transition between your stills and your webcam section. I think you lap over top of what is being said in the recorded stills with the webcam. I think it would be kind of cool if it is possible to add video game music like Mario. But I don't know if that is possible to find. **Another good thing about your story is….. it is a unique topic. No one's story is going to be like yours, which is what is going to pull the audience in.
The best thing about your story is the interaction we had with you using your webcam. It was interesting to get a firsthand preview of your desktop and what you experience through your home screen. I would like to know more about specific video games that you were drawn to as a kid and perhaps ones you engage in now. One thing you should think about changing is adding some examples of how video game has helped shape your personality and how you have evolved as a person and avid gamer. Another good thing about your story is your variety of pictures.
The best thing about your story is the community network. I like how you gave examples on how to actually get into the game community. You might consider adding why you are drawn to specific games. Your transition from explaining the process from desk top to where you went to school can be a little smoother, maybe include some graphics to time line your transition. I am not a gamer but I do collect DC Comics. I like your story it is unique.
Sean, I like that you really want people to know more about what "gamers" do as a way to help replace judgment with understanding. I like the fact that you also incorporated live narration with your story. The biggest thing you need to be aware of is that its not always easy to see your computer screen or the details you were explaining. I'm sure you will get that worked out. I'm not sure exactly what your dramatic question is, but I do get the real sense that you feel the negative stereotype that many have labeled "gamers" has to change. That you believe through education and understanding those judging from the outside may change their opinions. I think anytime there is prejudicial judgment it's a form of bullying and by developing a story to fight that bullying takes courage. Thanks for being courageous!
The best thing about your story is that you us a look into the gamer's life. I love that you showed us different places that we can go to play with other gamer's. I would like to know more about the games that you like to play. It will help your audience connect more. One thing that you should change is made adding things of the games you played. Another good thing about your video is the narration is very thorough.
