I like how much swoon made us feel like she was one of us. Also how she expressed her feelings and was not scared to say what she had to say.

Swoon is so cool! I really liked what she had to say about getting started with life. I love how her easy going nature is reflected in her work.

Swoon is one of the coolest people in the world! She is someone who everyone can truly relate to and she came off as really down to earth.

I really liked this interview. I thought that Swoon seemed really comfortable and totally in her element. I liked the incorporation of the footage of Swoon's existing work and of her actually wheatpasting some of her art.

Really well done!

It's good to see young people talking and interviewing with a well know street artist in a relaxed environment. Her work is really interesting and what she said at the end is so true.

I really liked the snowball metaphor that swoon made. Sometimes its best to just stop worrying about the future and instead just do what you love and see how things play out.

I enjoyed how swoon was so real and answered the questions so truthfully. I liked watching the video because swoon made me feel like she was talking to every child. I am going to foolow my dream little by little thanks to swoon. : )

I loved the video! I never really knew that printing had to do with street art! I always pictured street art as grafitti or something like that. I'll be looking out for this when I'm out on the town :)
