Mhm.
00:01 - 00:02
Hello.
00:02 - 00:06
Um For my culture jam assignment she was to do this add
00:06 - 00:11
on Xbox which originally was just the Xbox one jump in.
00:11 - 00:12
That's their slogan.
00:12 - 00:15
Um and the picture of the Xbox console of the
00:15 - 00:18
little connect device up top and then the little controller.
00:18 - 00:19
Um
00:20 - 00:23
Xbox is one of the leading console systems for gaming which is produced by
00:23 - 00:27
Microsoft and has been globalized to users in over 140 countries around the world.
00:28 - 00:31
Um And it's constant like these that are contributing to
00:31 - 00:34
the shift in popular culture of global online communication but
00:35 - 00:38
really negatively impacting in person social skills.
00:38 - 00:41
Um Gaming addicts spend more time in their virtual
00:41 - 00:44
realities in developing real life communication and social skills,
00:44 - 00:46
not to mention how it's affecting education.
00:47 - 00:50
Um For many people,
00:50 - 00:53
video games are an exciting hobby to escape reality and enjoy a
00:53 - 00:57
variety of virtual identities and activities and as fun as this hobby
00:58 - 01:00
uh could be outlets.
01:00 - 01:05
Let's to escape reality can become extremely detrimental to a person's health.
01:05 - 01:08
What is merely just games have become recognized and
01:08 - 01:11
and compared with other outlets of escaping reality,
01:11 - 01:15
including alcoholism, drug abuse along with other addictions.
01:15 - 01:17
Um in 2011 there's a study
01:17 - 01:21
from Yale University where researchers associated extreme
01:21 - 01:26
gaming habits with other forms of behavior like higher rates of depression,
01:26 - 01:29
anxiety, fighting drug use and obesity.
01:29 - 01:33
Another study in 2011, published in the journal comprehensive
01:34 - 01:36
psychiatry revealed that the area of the brain
01:36 - 01:39
that influences the desire to engage in gaming
01:39 - 01:42
also regulates the desire for drug and alcohol
01:42 - 01:45
use specifically feel good chemical called dopamine.
01:45 - 01:49
Um the reason I'm telling you that is because all
01:49 - 01:53
of these mental health effects um kind of compound and
01:54 - 01:58
may affect people's real life communication skills and
01:58 - 02:04
people with increasing anxiety and depression going on in our culture. It's
02:05 - 02:08
it's affecting a lot of uh communicating.
02:08 - 02:11
So I use this Xbox bundle ad that was intended
02:11 - 02:15
to entice its audience to jump into this bundle,
02:15 - 02:16
deal to buy the Xbox, uh
02:17 - 02:19
the connect council and the controller
02:20 - 02:22
um and I included,
02:22 - 02:25
I photoshopped the picture of the couch which I added behind the controller,
02:25 - 02:30
along with the words that I added up at the top, complete the bundle,
02:30 - 02:32
which really just means like by the Xbox and
02:32 - 02:36
accessories and the couch to really complete the Xbox bundle
02:36 - 02:40
um jump in which is Xboxes slogan
02:41 - 02:47
um I added added jump in addiction or jump into addiction
02:47 - 02:48
um
02:48 - 02:50
because with a bundle like this along with the couch,
02:50 - 02:55
you'll be playing it on uh like nonstop welcome to your addiction.
02:55 - 02:55
So,
02:56 - 02:57
um in conclusion,
02:57 - 02:59
um I chose this piece for my project
02:59 - 03:03
to show the reality of the consequences implications
03:03 - 03:07
that video gaming can have on society that is currently a problem in our culture,
03:07 - 03:10
because it's only really negatively affecting how
03:10 - 03:13
people uh learn and develop communication skills.
03:14 - 03:16
So yeah, thank you
