"In my personal statement I wrote about short youtube videos that I make, as I find them a lot more interesting to look back on then a collection of  arbitrary photographs. I think this is because you can really remember the moment with a small moving snapshot, and also because I am very careful to pick a song that I was listening to when I was filming, as I believe songs can really aid to transport you back. I think what I find so amazing about these videos is how much feeling there is in them, which I think is a crucial element in all aspects of art - for you, it will just be a video of friends, but for me this captures a moment in my life that I will never get back - of all my friends being within 1/2 hour of eachother, and able to meet up often, something we will lose in the coming years. I also find that I am able to appreciate everyday beauty when looking for things to film - where I live looks unarguably beautiful in these videos. I also picked these ones as the sun is shining, which is a nice reminder on these dark autumn nights."
