Okay, so we aren't all perfect.
It is an interesting concept; rather than taking you through an exhaustingly wordy explanation for Web 2.0, and how it progressed beyond the concepts of Web 1.0, a hand drawn and cut out paper girl is going to SHOW you how Web 1.0 worked, and how Web 2.0 differs. It is an individualized approach to the typical dictated attempts to share information, and it gets the message across--mostly.
The video shows the figure setting out the basic elements of Web 1.0; it represents a business meeting, a young girl with a laptop, a family with an iMac, an ambiguous figure checking email, another girl who is looking for video, and so on. It then attempts to represent the shift to Web 2.0 by showing how each of the recipients of the information from the business meeting becomes a contributor of shared information in a shared world by drawing lines going from each to the other. It makes a point without saying a word.
Unfortunately, it gets a bit lost with some of the representations, which can be as ambiguous as the girl/boy checking her/his email. It could have more simply been displayed by having:
Web 1.0 = information ->
Then saying:
Web 2.0 = information -> + feedback <- + sharing! <->
Representing some of those concepts may have been a bit of a stretch, but it would be better than the little transitions(?) that it attempted to make, that left me wondering if the video was going to GET TO THE POINT. The sharing aspect, once it did get there, was pretty good.
All that aside, it did a decent job driving it all home. The sound quality was atrocious, but it gives it a bit of charm. Keeping the seams while removing the atrocious quality would be nice.
