4. Introduction
Social psychology has taught many interesting things about human nature
having respective thoughts and and schematic impression on one object or
subject through mentally, emotionally and physically. Given the scientific
psychological studies based on researches and experiments by psychologists, it
is a way to learn and improve in public relationship between people around us,
having the knowledge of different ways to social communication, especially with
different ethnic groups. Under the basis of human having different environmental
adaption, they will have respective cultural norms and imprints that will cause
them to have different behaviours, personalities and impression of something.
6. Discussion :
At first, we held our meeting on a day which all 4 of us are free. We had our
discussion at the library. We had our brainstorm there and came out with our idea
and we started to include the psychology’s concept in to our video shooting
concept. After confirming the stories line , we started to include talking line into the
script. After adding the talking line , we checked again the story line and finalize
our script . We started our video shooting on the next day. We search block by
block for an empty classroom which is suitable for our video shooting. All of the
scene were taken at the classroom except for a scene which is Hafizi took the
scene at his own room. Hafizi was assigned to do the video editing , Kelvin was
assigned to do the report and Shaun was assigned to do the presentation slide
show.
Scene 1 :
The students were in the classroom. Mr. Shankar would like divide the student in
the group of 4 for project purpose. At the end , Kelvin , Shaun , Yvonne and Hafizi
were put in the same group after a random selection by Mr. Shankar himself.
Kelvin , Shaun and Yvonne talked very loud in the class. Hafizi thinks that Chinese
are very rude because they talked very loud in the classroom. And he thinks that
they are stupid because of their behavior.
Concept : stereotypes
Scene 2 & 3 :
They held a discussion about the project, but after they sit down together , Kelvin
and Shaun started to play Dota while Yvonne play with her phone. Soon , Hafizi
comes in. He looks interested in the games which Kelvin and Shaun were playing.
So he asked them what was the game and what was it about. Kelvin and Shaun
said the game they are playing called Dota and it was a hot game among the
youngster nowadays. At scene 3 , Hafizi went home and followed the instruction
given by Shaun and Kelvin and downloaded dota and try it on. He think that was a
fun and a nice playing game.
7. Concept : Observation influence
Scene 4 :
Hafizi started to mix with Kelvin and Shaun to play Dota together. One day , Hafizi
played Dota with both of them as usual. Shaun was being surrounded by enemy
and he called for help. Kelvin was too far to save him and Hafizi just ignored
Shaun and let Shaun’s character die. Shaun was so mad and started to be racist.
Hafizi get mad and also started to be racist. Both of them went into a verbal fight.
Kelvin stopped them and asked them to continue playing their game and have no
more fighting.
Concept : Racism , Low Self Monitoring , Verbal Hostile Aggression
Scene 5 :
They held another discussion about their project again. Yvonne started to lecture
of them for being too addicted to the game until they had neglected their studies.
The three of them realize how much time they had spent on the game while they
have tons of assignment which haven’t been done yet and the final exam was
around the corner. They decided to stop playing the game and concentrate on
their work more.
Concept : Social Influences
