I spent a lot of time editing (stitching clips together, choosing hashtags, making captions, and filling out our page).

In doing this project I\u2019ve learned just how much curation it takes to create an \u201cauthentic\u201d looking self. Even for videos that are seen as low effort like lip-syncing to pre-recorded popular audios, there is a lot of effort into recording a high-quality take and then stitching things together well. Though they are short, or perhaps <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">because<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> they are short, TikToks must be edited very tightly in order to keep people engaged and to prevent viewers from getting distracted. How long does a captain need to be on the screen? How high quality do photos need to be? Where does text need to be placed so that it\u2019s easily readable? How much variation can you have between the original meme format and your own content? What should one wear? What\u2019s in the background? What type of lighting? All of these still need to be taken into consideration when making TikToks that are \u201cspontaneous\u201d or \u201cauthentic\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Having put all of our videos so far into one channel, I have concluded that TikTok does not approve of reposted content. Because Katie started making videos on her channel, when I repost them on the @SociologyAtBowdoin account, TikTok does not show the content (Katie\u2019s video about Durkheim currently has 736 views on her account, but 4 on the Bowdoin account). Because videos are made in the app, there is nothing we can do about this other than remake the videos which we do not have time to do. This is a very unfortunate conclusion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Next steps:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finish annotated bibliography\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finish making videos\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Post everything onto the channel<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week Katie and I worked on finishing up our videos.
