Audience positioning is always an area that students struggle to comprehend; it's not sitting on the sofa in front of the TV! It takes into consideration who we side with in a narrative, balance, bias, what we are(n't) shown and so on.
The video below takes this to a new level and literally positions the viewer as a refugee using their phone to escape atrocities and striving for something better. The use of a point of view position allows full engagement; the verisimilitude of the device, messages, whatsapp etc doesn't allow your focus to deviate and is very clever.
The video is best viewed on a mobile or hand held device.
