battle front homework.

Chosen Campaign.
- Who wants to be a size zero anyway?
By Rachel Philips.


Socks & The City from Battlefronters on Vimeo.



The video is about encouraging girls to be happy with the size they are instead of trying to make themselves thinner.  It's about how girls should eat and enjoy the way they look rather than worrying about what they want to change there bodies and the way they look. 

It's quite comedic as its called socks and the city after the show sex and the city however they are the four friends but as socks. 

The most effective thing is when the 'people' or 'socks' are saying what they want to change about themselves and how stupid it sounds especially when the girl say she's giving up oxygen. It's  using puppets instead of people which i think makes it a little less appealing as it kinds drones on. Also when there is writing it seems it goes on a bit too long as its held on the screen for quite a long time. I think it needs to involve more information on the given subject as it does kind of lose sense of what its about.

However i think its a good video as it is quite a strong subject and shows that its okay to be curvy and that being a size zero isn't sexy. it also says how one of the peoples husbands/boyfriend likes her with a bit more meat on her.
