Echoing what others have said about MTV editing forthe short attention span, for a glimpse on what your children are being raised on, check out some commericals on Saturday AM.
I was almost blinded by the dizzying pace of cuts, explosions (who knew that breakfast cereal and fruit roll ups were so explosive) and neon colors! Go figure, I'm only 25, and already a relic!This is what your films will look like to a larger & larger degree as this generation grows.
Video games are also largely responsible for this type of visual imagery.
Even look at channels like Bloomberg and CNN, talk about short attention span, they have 15 tickers simultaneously running different info, all with a separate video feed.
