Video - The Extended Family Series - The Other Parent sample (00:35 of 3:00)

 

THE OTHER PARENT
The video explores media’s dual parenting role in bringing up America’s children. By dual I mean parenting parents, through the proliferation of advice (guru industry), and by influencing children through an onslaught of TV, movie, music and advertising images. The TV-Guide-like video is an overload of information, sound and visual stimuli, replicating how varied media sources converge, numb and project messages. 3 mins looped
