choices of how to write the paper
In the essay written by Safiya I can see shes taking her points and views consisting on the Tachyon part of the ARG. She makes Tachyon look like a hero fighting against evil which in this case is OpAhid. Safiya makes her seem like a spy or "James Bond" like character, reporting all her information to the head quaters this being the "YouTube" bloggers. She also makes Tachyon seem like a mystery to all the viewers a person without a past, a simple somebody who is there but at the same time isn't. Safiya chose to make this paper similar to an autobiography of Tachyon to make people understand that besides the main characters Bree, Daniel, and Jonas, there are others fighting this battle against Opahid and they are making a difference.
Audience- tried to be as discriptive as possible
Put out her personal point of view
Went the episode that best explains her essay
Criticism: Should've talked a little more about the main characters of LG15 to make the reader understand why they need her help.

Who Can You Trust?
In the world “Lonelygirl15” it seems impossible to trust anyone. But how can one blame them, being lied to by almost everyone, from old friends to even parents and family. Trust is a way for people to build a relationship with one another; people can’t be friends unless they have trust in one another. In the case of trust for the characters in LG15, they need the help of the devoted viewers to figure who is trustworthy. It can make one become extremely paranoid, and take steps to drastic measures.
How can one blame Bree for acting the way she did towards Jonas? Well, this is the same person who told them in when they were roaming the streets and were eating out of the trash, this shouldn’t be his reward for that act of kindness. Even though Bree thought it was the right thing to do, Daniel thought different. When hearing what Bree had done to their host he quickly went to make things clear and try to help Jonas. The conversation that went on between Jonas and Daniel was intense. The way one was able to tell how angry and insulted Jonas was from even being compared to the Order. The chairing was shaking in anger as the conversation went on, the yelling and power that was coming out of Jonas put up a great case. Seeing Jonas strapped to a chair in his very own house made Daniel realize that Bree was really going crazy. The tone and language that went on throughout that conversation was powerful, as if Jonas was begging to be believed for who he really is. But to Bree the evidence was too strong. Daniel kept on contemplating in his mind whether or not to let Jonas free, and what affect and harm in would it put on his relationship with Bree.
While viewing this episode one can truly see that the tears that come down from Jonas’s face along with the fury expressed in his voice seems all too real. Which makes one wonder has Bree gone insane, taking her friend hostage, or is she just playing the game the smart way? Jonas took them in when they had nowhere to go literally nowhere, was it an act of kindness and hospitality or a trap? The fact that before this act of craziness Jonas was there for Bree when it came to rescuing Daniel, and helping her out when her father was killed by “The Order”. Bree needs to remember Jonas was running away from the order as well, and has just as much fear in them as she does.
The ARG or Alternate Reality Gaming in this Episode holds so much information towards the episodes to come, which most viewers helped write the storyline for. The ARG is the new wave to the future of media how else can a TV show get so many viewers pleased and interested than by getting their thoughts and ideas put up in front of them and preformed by their favorite characters. This time around the media is in the hands of the viewers and it couldn’t get any better. The people are starting to get more control than ever, the future is held on their opinions. But how long will this last for can this be a phase or an age that will evolve to greater lengths.

Little films and new media being marketed
The form of this new media is both a new form of both cinema and Television. The “YouTube” media is a new way for people to watch television, by giving people a chance to see new faces and new ideas. The new websites, which offer us actual Hollywood movies to watch from our computer at any time possible also show a new way to watch and enjoy cinema. Both cinema and television are finding new advancements to be distributed, and also be create.
It is true that the perks of the film market is the comfort of being able to watch the film at a time that is best for you. However, television today is also like that. With new technologies such as Tivo and DVR you can watch your favorite television show whenever you want. Elaina
I am not quite sure how seeing new faces and new ideas is likened to the idea of television more than cinema. This idea can be likened to Cinema also. Jen
I wish that you showed more ways that YouTube is a new way to watch television, because I don’t believe that “giving people a chance to see new faces and new ideas” is a good argument for these videos to be likened to television. I do like that you showed how new websites are broadening the way we watch videos. Matt
I agree with you with these video show new face to views. Like LG15, she pretty close to Hollywood movie star because her video are fake, lots of people wish can see her in the threater. Ling

When reading or listening to someone who has authority in that knowledge?
Qualities in which can be expressed as being an expert in a certain field can be with age, strict knowledge of the field, and with experience. A person who I think has authority is my film teacher Rachel Lyon who has creates many documentaries and has produced many as well. So when she teaches our class about the production of the film and how get your film out there, I play my utmost attention to everyone she says and believe that what she says will happen. I think I have authority when it comes to editing movies, I have been doing it for the past 4 years even before the “YouTube” era. And seeing my audience’s reactions help me realize that.

Lonely Girl 15 starts off by showing the audience that the star of the show Bree is a typical 15-year-old girl or so it seems. The viewer may enjoy the show by thinking that she seems to relate to her, but as time goes on Brees personality and conflicts start to shift away. Through the past 30 episodes we have seen Bree go from typical sweet innocent girl, to rebel, and drama. The transition occurs as more conflicts begin to happen with in her life whether it’s with her parents, or with Daniel. Near the end of the first 30 episodes Bree starts to realize there’s more to being a teenager then obeying her parents and talking to a purple monkey. She realizes the partying part of teenagers, and she can’t get enough of it, and is upset she was missing out on it.
