First message on video - Awareness of child sexual abuse.
I have been working on a video message and uploading it to the internet and over to my blog. My first rough attempt is completed. In this video I warn parents that sexual predators are after their children. I am joined by my father, Richard L. Cooper. We are helping parents help their children by understanding this ugly reality and find better solutions.
Raise your child abuse free, raise them strong.

Please let me know if you have problems with the video. This is my first attempt, I am still learning.
Thank you for letting me share and grow.

To be brutally honest, I'm not the biggest fan of your blog. You come across so much better on the video and although you were saying the same things as you have in your blog, it didn't seem as though you were trying to scare people as much.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the video, keep up the good work!
Thank you Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteIt is a process and I am learning to make my own path. No one wants to believe it is a common as it is, one in three girls. I am doing my best to show ugly unspoken truth. And offering the solutions I needed as a child. I am trying to scare parents so the will be better prepared and help keep their children. It is a much bigger danger to their children.
Stay strong and heal,

Great job posting the video! I know that takes a lot of courage.
ReplyDeleteIt is scary that it's as common as one in three girls, that makes your message even more important.
The only suggestion I have for improving your future videos is... can you look into the camera a bit more? People tend to believe us more when we look them in the eye.
I wish you all the joy life can bring you. :)
Thank you LaughSing,
ReplyDeleteYes, I do need to look at the camera. I am not use to that, and I kept trying to look at my Dad. I will get better the next time. Now that I know.
Thanks for the feedback. I need it. lol
Cheers,

Great start with the video, I echo two comments, look into the camera more, and engage Dad more. Either do a monologue or have a conversation with him (or both). It's a bit awkward having you talking TO him about this. We assume he knows and that you've dealt with it together, what did he learn? What can he share from the parents perspective?
ReplyDeleteGreat start my BraveHeart Sister, I applaud your courage and your path!

Hi Vicki,
ReplyDeleteThank you, yes I am going to do another video or two with my Dad having a heart to heart discussing the issue from my Dad's direction.
Actually, I was going to do the first solo. Then my Dad started helping with the camera and off camera comments. Finally, I decided to have my Dad on screen with me. And I shot it. So it was a bit improv.
It is my first attempt, I should improve. I am working on it. I just made another video with only me. I think I did better talking the camera. I imagined the camera was one of my beautiful sweet nieces.
Thanks for the encouragement and and guidance. Your comments are right on target. I should have a new one with my Dad sometime this week.
Please stay tuned and keep guiding me. I will improve.
Cheers,
Renee
