Autoethnography

From this reading i have learned that filmmakers like Jonas Mekas, George Kutchar, and Sadie Benning used person video diaries to look back on their ethical and cultural views of the world around them. I absolutely love this type of filmmaking, you can express a lot of information within the piece while portraying how they express their personal past experiences prior to the filming. What i believe makes these pieces so mind catching is that you are being able to see within the artists emotions and being able to understand the balance between the audience and the performer. The intimacy between the audience and the performer are what create these pieces to be so constructed fully. Without that connection these pieces could or wouldn't have any meaning. It is noticeably easy to understand and notice the issue they are showing you from these film makers.

Knowing exactly what auto-ethnography is, i am able to love the aspect of reflecting on ones self to find understandings and meanings rather than ethnography to conduct certain "interviews" to gain the understanding.
