Before I say anything, I would like to mention that this video was made for a class I took – History of Asian Americans. I had a group project and our topic was within the theme of domestic violence among Asian American women and children. We needed a “creative portion” for our group presentation so I volunteered to make some kind of cut & paste video, just to be different from all the Powerpointers and posterboards.

What’s important is that I got all of the content off the Internet using Google search with search words like, “Asian American, abuse, domestic abuse and violence.” For the video portions, those were mostly off YouTube. Music is not royalty – it’s just what I had available on iTunes that I deemed able to fit the mood we needed to convey.

And the reason I say all that is because – this is a non-profit, non-official video; I do not own any of this content (however, some of the black & white videos were taken by me) and I give great thanks and full credit to all respectable creators of any audio, images & video borrowed to make this short snippet thing.

This was basically an audience attention getter & a quick info session on our topic.

I did it in a high stress, little time situation, but I figured I’d post it here along with the rest of my videos.

Perhaps a more cleaner cut, original content video will be made in the future!
