Lost in the World Questions

1. The general premise of the video is how people are so caught up in their cell phones and their electronics that they aren't paying attention to what is happening right in front of them. Also, everything that they do pay attention to is for recognition on social media and the internet. 

2. Yes, the video is effective in conveying the intended message of how everyones is attached by the hip with their phones because in the video, no one pays attention to anything that's going on in the world around them, except for the one guy who doesn't have a phone. Even when the girl jumps off the building, everyone watches through their phones. 

3. I feel like the video is a little bit of both, a cautionary tale and an examination of our current social situation. It could be a cautionary tale meaning how if you're not careful with balancing out you in life interactions and time on your phones, then that could hurt you in the future. It could also be an example of our current social status by displaying how everyone is always attached to their phones and uses it for so many situations, such as communication, games, and even dating, as shown in the video.
