This documentary will explore blogging and social media use among teenagers. It will examine how anonymous commenting can enable bullying, how blogs allow self-expression, and both the positive and negative impacts of focusing on attractive "famous" users. The documentary will feature interviews with bloggers and explore issues like insecurity, pornography on blogs, and how beauty is portrayed online.
2. This documentary will be about…
• Anons (anonymous) how they can be
fun/interesting YET be bully’s
• How it’s the new trend
• How it makes teenagers feel and how they are
able to express themselves
• How it shows fashion, new music, photography
and even porn
• Is it better than going out?
• How beauty is shown but yet how it gives positive
pictures/comments on how everyone should feel
about themselves
3. Aimed At…
• Blog lovers
• Social site lovers
• Teenagers
• Adults
4. Anons
Anons are anonymous, on your Tumblr
page anyone is able to ask questions to
you, either as anonymous or as your
login. It seems to be that anons are seen
as internet bullies as they say things that
they can’t say un-anonymously. It’s a
problem because some people will take
it seriously and feel really hurt by it. For
example I have seen many anons saying
‘die whore’ to girls who are completely
innocent. It’s a disgusting thing to do
because the anonymous person see’s it
as a joke.
6. Interviews
I will interview blogger lovers to
see how they feel when they
blog and what they love about
it. Does it express the quiet
teenagers and make them feel
better about them selves
online? To see if any of the
bloggers feel down whenever
they see pictures of ‘tumblr
famous’ people reblogged all
over their dash. Also to see if
they would prefer to stay in and
blog then go out with friends.
8. Social Sites
Social sites are like fashion, for a long while it
will be popular and everyone will be on it
but then after a while everyone moves
onto something new. Tumblr’s one of the
first different social sites because it’s a
blogging site, you’re able to create your
own page, blog pictures, videos, gifs,
songs, and reblog other people’s stuff.
Pictures from Tumblr end up on other
social sites such as Facebook, Twitter and
even Blackberry Messenger. Recently it’s
becoming very popular as it’s the new
trend.
10. Insecurities Can Kill You
• Does Tumblr show what you’re really suppose to look like?
• Do the ‘tumblr famous’ people put you to shame?
• Does seeing 100+ reblogged pictures of only attractive people
make you feel ugly?
Exploring on how beauty is seen on blogging sites.
11. Acceptable?
On most teenagers Tumblr
pages there are lots of
pornographic pictures
uploaded and it seems
to be ok and normal in
Tumblr life.
Is this normal?
Are bloggers too used to
it that its acceptable?
12. Positive
Its an open minded blogging site, pictures of people
fighting illness’ such as Cancer, it shows that people
are supporting. There also a lot of quote pictures
that talk about faith, hope and love.
13. Location
Busy areas where there are lots of teenagers and
home location with a computer to show
evidence of Tumblr posts.
