So basically, for a media project in her BA Film and Television Production course, my older sister has been filming me to put together a documentary on what it's like for me having AS..well it's more like a "Day in the life" kind of documentary. It's called "Asperger's and I"; see preview for details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsaBKoSLqzs

...it's not very informative or a 'full' clip, but it's only so because the documentary is still in the editing stage- plus, more filming is needed.

Anyway, stay tuned for details! :)

Thanks.

Well, first of all, I find this very unpleasant to watch because of all the strange diagonal/sideways camera angles. And of course it's not very meaningful since it's just a short excerpt.

I am however happy about the portrayal of an Aspie who is both not male and not white, because I swear that's what you normally see in 80% of the usual documentaries.

I didn't find it uncomfortable to watch but I did find the aforementioned camera angles odd.

Thanks for your feedback...I have told my sister about the camera angle issue, and I will try to get her to change it.

...and YES, I completely agree with you on your other point! :)

That's a good sign! :) ...but, I am looking into getting the camera angles changed.

Here it is!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOnUPsMWQVw

...It's quite short in both length and in content. -I hope you enjoy it! :)

...Also, apologies in advance for the length of the video; it is in theory only 7 minutes long, but some how it is a 15 minute video.

P.S. I'd like to know what you thought of it- even if you have to be brutally honest. :)

It's a brave thing to do and well done for doing it.

Edited, as I had clicked the wrong link. I too couldn't cope with the camera angles. I stopped it after a very short while. I had to turn my head on the side to try to watch bits and then back up again. Sorry to be negative, I do admire your braveness though because I couldn't do it.

AH...I'm sorry about that!- I did warn my sister about those camera angles, but she wouldn't change them. :(

...But, thank you for your feedback! :)
