Zangief Kid vs The Rat (Midterm Portfolio)

This is a user generated video which twists a news story of a bully, beaten by the bullied. Chose this video because I find it hilarious.This video is effective because it has a twist on how people see bullying. Most people see bullying as a child being attacked and hurt mentally, physically or both. This is ineffective due to the fact it strays away from the point of the story and changing it into a complete comedy. In changing it into comedy the essence of the video was entirely changed. When I watched the original video I got a feeling of bravery. I felt the boy's anger when he attacked back. In this video, due to the street fighter sound effects, you just cant wait to see who wins the fight. I can't imagine this video on regular television. If it were on T.V. they would probably try extend it for longer than it needs to be. If it would be made into a television series it would be surrounded by a bullied kid, fed up with is attackers and fighting back. In doing so leaving a great video with a horrible spin off. Media is not comfortable with just a one hit wonder.
