Is kids beauty pageant good or bad?

Purpose of this documentary

The purpose of this documentary is to show people if children doing beauty pageants good or bad? Or is it just something that parents make their children to do. Does it help children boost their confidence or just damage their self esteem? Should children be allowed to do beauty pageant or should it just be a thing for adults? Also this documentary will show the in-sight of a kids beauty pageants, the clothe make-up, fake tan and money spent on a pageant but also the tears, anger and frustration. 

 Sad faces & Fake smiles

Many people think they're evil, claiming that the beauty pageants are more for the parents than for the children. The kids did not want to be in the beauty pageant, and it was obvious, but the moms threatened and intimidated them into going on stage. kids pageant should just be a hobby and not a life time thing. If they don't win, they might take it personally and get hurt feelings. The child might end up feeling unattractive.

However some children love the idea of child pageants it's the whole point of getting all dressed up and having fun. A pageant girl usually learns to be comfortable in front of strangers, giving her self-confidence a big boost. Pageants can be a lot of fun for kids. Most pageants sell foods that kids love, including pizza, hot dogs, popcorn, candy, and other snacks. Child pageants can teach kids to be gracious winners and good losers. They'll learn the aspects of rules and fair play.
 
In conclusion i think beauty pageants are good when parents can handle defeat and show their children how to show good sportsmanship and just learn from their mistakes instead of getting all frustrated and showing a negative vibe to their children. Some children don't want to do the pageants and when they get forced into doing it, it shows on stage from their facial expressions that their unhappy. Children should do beauty pageants but from their own will and not get forced into doing something that they don't want to do.

Comparing and contrasting clips

In the four clips i have seen i will be comparing and contrasting the videos to each other i will mainly be talking about the effects, music, background etc.

Danny Macaskill- Industrial Revolution video was quite simple and straight forward, the music was also like the video simple. The scenery was in a industrial place therefore the sight of the video was quite nice. The music also flowed nicely with actual video.The video didn't really have a story line to it, it was just a man showing different kind of tricks that he could do on a bike.

Which contrasts with the next clip Concrete circus- Keelan Philips Bmx release was more of a story of a guy who was visualising how he'll do the tricks he wants to do on the bike whereas the first clip it doesn't have the story line but also the scenery is different as the first one has a nice background with a lot of greenery however the other one is darker. Similarly they both have the music that go with their video but also the they both our about two great bike rider doing tricks on their bikes.

The next clip is Martin- A skate illustration is quite similar to the Industrial Revolution clip as both the scenery's are based outside but also they both have no story line it's just them doing a whole lot of tricks and they both have lots of long distance shots whereas the Keelan Philips Bmx release most of the shots in this video are close up.
