Time Compression or Expansion: student videos

 Chris Cardona's Jaden is Hungry




Chris Cardona expands time AND compresses time in his video "Jaden is Hungry."  Note his use of his father, son, and himself to portray the same character.  Also note the visual joke in how one minute can seem like an eternity to a child.
 Graysen Ludiker's "Water Pong"
Grayson Ludiker takes honorable mention with his video "Water Pong."  Note his use of repetition and slow motion to expand time for the climactic final ping-pong plunge.
