The benefits of AV essay other than entertaining is AV essay use less time in-order understand the point that the author want to communicate comparing to the traditional writing essay.

In today blog I will briefly summaries the argument and critically assess of my chosen AV essay in terms of technique, clarity and originality of the work. My chosen AV essay is an essay about the Jackie Chan my favourite Actor, filmmaker and a director on how he make action comedy. The AV essay that I has chosen to analyse is creating by Tony Zhou.

This AV essay has make an interesting argument about the editing and the shooting of an action scene of the Eastern especially Hong Kong film industry in comparison to the western film industry regarding to Jackie Chan movies and how Jackie make is action funny in the same time as violent. For example there is a comparison between western shooting technique where camera operator moving around to make the the scene more violent because actor don't know how to fight but in other hand Jackie chan is shoot is action scene in wild angle in-order to see every movement of the actor and stuntman because they know how to fight.

The originality of this AV essay is quite original, because no one of done something like this before, there never have anyone who break down Jackie chan fight scene to find out how hoe it been shot and  a humorous the hidden within Jackie fight scene. Other than the originality I have to say that the creator and narrator of the this AV essay has done a great job in clarify their argument on Jackie Chan sense of humour in his action scene, because the narrator has explain everything very clear together with a evident of the particular sequence.

In term of the technique that use in creating this AV essay is quite simple, but yet interesting and very entertaining. This AV essay has use a very simple way of explaining scene by scene, cut by cut of the Jackie Chan action sequence in comparison to the westerner action sequence.

Overall I have to say that this AV essay is very informative and knowledgeable and also entertaining to watch. The Creator has done a great job.
