emergency folks illness level lower point room treated treatment
If you don't get treatment early, the illness progresses to the point of emergency intervention. Then we end up with folks in the emergency room who could've been treated at a much lower level of intervention.
amazing attack cell effects equal films great lesson low matter medium moment money phone poor process prospect rather realized seemed small sound special spielberg steven stories thinking tons turned video view
At first, I was overwhelmed by the restrictions of the cell phone medium: small size, low video resolution, and poor sound quality. Only in the moment when I realized that I shouldn't view the medium as restricting, but rather as liberating, did I come up with my idea. I started thinking that, with the cell phone as my weapon, I could attack a story just as well as Steven Spielberg can. He may be able to do amazing special effects and use tons of money to make his blockbusters, but with only a cell phone, we're on equal ground. Suddenly, the prospect of making cell phone films not only seemed liberating, but a whole lot of fun. The process turned out to be a great lesson for me -- great stories are great stories, no matter their size.
