Week 2 Video without sound blog

  I thought the women in this relationship hate each other because there was lots of eye rolling, looking away. The relationships between the various women was confusing at times because they would smile at each other and laugh. The next minute hands would be flying and facial expressions changed. This is definetly a show that you would have to know the relationship of the people to understand the communication.

With the Sound on:

In the case of this show, Basketball Wives I still have the same impression of the relationship of the women because of the mood swings and nature of the conversation. It seems as though they were friends but only when working on a project or without certain other women around. There was lots of non verbal communication going on. I wonder how the women on Basketball Wives feel watching themselves on t.v.
Would your assumptions have been more correct if you had been watching a show you know well?


Write about your experience in your blog, including what you learned about communication from this experience and insights or “aha” moments you believe would be helpful to your colleagues.  I learned from this video that you can really tell the intentions or interest of friends in social groups by stepping back and watching the interactions and facial expressions going on while hanging out.
