Communication

For this assignment, I decided to observe a show called "Love it or List it" in the HGTV channel because is one of many favorite ones to watch, besides it makes me dream about the home of my dreams. The part I saw on mute and then with volume was toward the beginning of the show. This is what I observed:

I can see the man and the lady going to a house, getting in and looking around, the guy as he moves his arms when communicating, his facial expressions are very clear to read. the lady is talking to him but he does not have any eye contact with her. Sometimes the lady is left talking alone as I can tell her lips are moving. He always has a smile on her face. As they enter the bathroom, their look on their faces seems of surprised and there is head nodding. The scene goes to where they are talking to another couple they each are talking one at a times and listening carefully as well.

As I watched the same part with the volume on, they are both talking about the house and what types of work she had to do in it to make it more efficient for the people living there. She kept telling him that she will make it to where they don't have to sell their home. He in the other hand kept criticizing her time and they amount of remodeling needed which she might not get done therefore he is certain they will list it for sale. In the scene as they enter the bathroom, they were surprised although as they nod their head was because he had told her how much money it was going to cost. The lady  was wondering how much money she would had to get it done. When they are talking to the other couple, in fact they were the owners of the house and they were discussing the money for remodeling their home as well as what they wanted in their home. Everyone as they talk are quite and listen carefully to each other. For me, it is very interesting how much we can assume a conversation by its facial expressions, body posture, and  hand movements and sometimes be wrong about them.
