Look At Me When I’m Talking To You….Or When You’re Talking To Me.

 

I really enjoyed Dr. Campbell’s explanation on the importance of eye contact today. It’s such a seemingly small part of communication that we take for granted, but it’s probably one of the most important pieces of body language we use. A look can say it all, whether it be love or hate, embarrassment or confidence, sincerity or apathy. Morris manages to cut himself out as the middleman of the interviews with his technique and it truly adds to the experience. We briefly mentioned in our group presentation how Morris pulls you in by setting up an interview in which the subject is talking directly to you. Dr. Campbell described the interrotron abit today, but I recall this picture that I found. It may actually make the concept more complicated, but here goes nothing.
