New beginnings

 Towards production This week I dug deeper into cancel culture and online shamming but specifically David Dobrik who I briefly covered in my other production blog  Starting out  but I also wan to reflect  upon all my research so far as a group and future expectations.  Dobrik has suffered his fare share of backlash within the past few years still even to this day he gets criticised here and there.  June 2017 Dobrik released a video where he pranks one of the vlog squad members into kissing a girl but it was actually a guy, he was blindfolded so he had no idea. Seth Francois stated that this was sexual assault, David took Seth’s response seriously and posted an apology video a week later. David received massive backlash for this incident but nothing major affected his channel, all he did was take the video down and apologise.

 Starting out For our group project we will be researching about cancel culture and online shaming, in my own terms cancel culture is when someone is shunned or rejected from a social circle and this can take place on social media or even your social life, online shamming is the when you get harassed by internet users on social media. Both online shaming and cancel culture has had drastic affects on people but especially celebrity's because they have a huge fan base, the most extremes case of this is the Logan Paul incident. The part that interests me the most is the effects  that online shaming can have, one of them is how your mental health can drop significantly because it seems like the whole world is against you. An example of this would be famous musician Travis Scott, he deleted his Instagram account due to his fanbase turning on him.   Travis dressed up as batman in a brown costume to match the colour of hos cars, fans didn't like this and swarmed his social media...
