Digital Media, like all other things, is great in moderation. The ability to instantly access information pertinent to us is a very useful one. As technology advances, though, we have to avoid becoming reliant on it. Unfortunately, with the new digital age, we are becoming progressively worse, or less receptive at least, to human interaction and face time. While chatting on Facebook with a friend halfway across the country is great, we have to also be able to go outside of our rooms and have conversations with people physically in front of us.
But don’t get me wrong, the advances in technology are great. In the film school alone, I get over 20 emails a day about meeting times, classes, shoot information, etc. Being able to quickly access this information is almost a necessity here. Plans change very quickly, and people need to be informed as quickly as they can be.
Overall, Digital Media is not a bad thing, if we keep in mind that we still need to talk to people in person.
