All about three videos and my Capstone!

The first video that I watched while researching different PSA's was called, "PSA on Radiation Therapy." The video had people drawing while they were talking and it was very interesting to watch. The people in the video went into detail with the subject they were talking about, but it wasn't boring at all. It was captivating and kept me interested, so it gave me some ideas on how to keep people's attention in my video. The second video I watched was, "Are you ready to be a hero?" I liked the title of this one as well as the way it was filmed. Everyone that spoke in the video was standing against a solid wall with serious expressions. The seriousness in the video made my heart jump out to what they were talking about and caused my emotions to surface. The third video was simply called, "Yoga" and was interesting because it gave visual demonstrations. Everything was done in unison to the person who was talking in the video with the person giving demonstrations. This video was serious but to an extent because it also had a playful touch to it.

My Capstone project is over the side effects of Chemotherapy. Even though Chemotherapy fixes one problem, it causes another; side-effects. There are many different side-effects caused by chemotherapy and I want to try to find a way to minimize them and even prevent them if possible. My solution  is to create an experiment; take six people all going through the same treatment of chemotherapy and give three of them Pranayama treatments. Pranayama is a type of yoga breathing treatment that reduces stress. I will take the other three people and monitor their side effects without the treatments and then I will compare the two groups to see if it minimizes the side-effects or not.
