Reaction videos have been part of the digital landscape for over a decade. People watch others doing things and film themselves reacting. It has become a lucrative online industry for advertising and content. The people filming/reacting refer to themselves as the creators, rather than showcasing the original authors, song writers, or chefs. They may enhance and exaggerate their responses for their online audience’s fun or entertainment, but the clicks generate money and fuel the genre. Blog posts that react to a recorded or written source are also a form of these reactions.
For this assignment, you will create either a video or a written response that captures your reaction to a video or a written work of your choice. The written option provides the opportunity to practice writing about a topic you are interested in. Both assignment options are for completion points.

Tell your audience the details of how you encountered the piece you selected and who created the original content.
