People are overly influenced by what they see on TV. It's as if we are there little robots as you see in the video and they are brainwashing our minds into thinking we want to be like that person. How far will you stretch yourself to be someone you're not?
In this video "Doll Face" it begins to give you this creepy feeling. Then a black and white TV appears. As they show the TV you see a metal box appears to be a jack in the box look alike. Then this mechanical robot pops out with a human face. As this face pops out she focuses on the TV. As she is watching this TV she sees how on the TV the person appears to have makeup. When she sees that she does the same thing and put's on makeup. It's basically herself in the TV and her images as a person. The images get in more detail and more human like, she gets angry because she feels ugly and wants to be like who she sees on TV. As we get more into the video at this point she is just experimenting but you also notice she is getting more skillful and changing her image with no questions asked. The TV moves more and more back which is showing the moral how far will you stretch yourself to be someone you're not. At the end of the video she was stretching herself so far just to be someone she is not to the point that she broke herself. That's when the TV came off and showed another TV watching the mechanical robot and TV.
People are overly influenced by what they see on TV. It's such a true statement because as you seen in the video the robot was just doing what she saw on the television. She was being brainwashed by what the media thinks she should look like. She was stretching herself to be someone she is not which led her to breaking herself. So ask yourself these questions Do you think you're influenced by media on TV? Do you feel you have to be somebody else to be accepted in this world even a different race?
I agree with you on this because I know it's true. Many times people get infuenced by what they see in the televison. Your blog made me realize if I'm doing the same thing. I know I don't even watch tv but I could be doing the same thing without noticing it. I like were you pointed out "The TV moves more and more back which is showing the moral how far will you stretch yourself to be someone you're not." because media is trying to change your image into something you're not. I believe its not only in the televison where we get these ideas it's anywhere. I recommend you to read my blog post on "Doll Face" too because even though its the same blog we have different information that can make us over think the situation. If you see on "Facebook" or any other social networks you'll see that people talk about their looks and appearances and how they change overtime.
