"Bus Uncle"

1How many viewers are estimated to have watched the youtube video?

There are more than two millions viewers have watched this video on youtube. And the viewers were not only form Hong Kong, but also foreigners over the world. Many viewers shared this video so that it spread on internet quickly.


2. How would you rate the video?

a) Is it of high quality in technical terms? Is it interesting aesthetically eg camera angles, use of light, the narrative, and so on?
I don't think that this is a video with high quality in technical terms. The camera man only tried to record the issue, but not film something aesthetically. No matter the camera angle,use of light,sound,narrtive......were not plan before. The camera man just use a mobile phone to captuere the issue. We can see the frame is raw, the quality is low. Therefore, it is totally not aesthetic.


b) Does it raise interesting socio-cultural issues? 
Yes, of cause it did. This video reveals the social problem in Hong Kong. People are stressful, like what the Bus Uncle said in the video, that is "I have pressure. You have pressure too." It is really what Hong Kong people want to yell out too.
The public noticed this issue and paid attention on this. Everyone use the sologn of Bus Uncle: "Not yet resolved". It brings funny and relaxing feeling to the public. This issue might be a bad experience to the two men in the video, but the video brings happiness to the public. Everyone talks about this and laugh on this. What a tough "pressure"!^^

3. Do you think it deserved the attention that it received from the internet community?
Yes, it deserved. The video shows the reality of Hong Kong society. It can remind Hong Kong people not to be angry easily. And they have to reduce their pressure and enjoy their life. If not, they will become the other hitted "Bus Uncle" all over the world on Internet.
