Latino Opinion
A collection of Latino opinions by Ricardo A. López
  • We must stop the negative immigration rage!
    Latino immigrants generally come to the U.S. driven by a strong desire to provide a better life for their family. Their drive is not that different from the motivating factors that impelled the ancestors of almost everyone in this country. The strength of the immigrants' spirit helps them...
  • Stop the Latino Apathy and Become an American Participant!
    This article was first published under the title "A Matter of Influence" on October 24, 2009 in Connections, the newsletter of the Southwest Florida's Hispanic Business Link (See A Matter of Influence). Latinos are beginning to understand the importance of their participation in the United States' social, legal, and political system....
  • Why Hispanics Live Long Lives
    [caption align="alignright" width="320" caption="My mom (at age 80) and my children"][/caption] U.S. Hispanics tend to live longer than non-Hispanics despite many circumstances that negatively affect Latino longevity.  This is a fact that continues to puzzle the medical community.  On the surface it does not make a lot of ...

Using Video to Make Qualitative Come to Life
Presenter: Ricardo López

Video is powerful... extremely powerful! No matter how persuasive a written report can be, it pales in comparison to a quality video clip showing the actual consumer opinion. While many of us have been using video in gathering insight and presenting qualitative research findings for years, there has always been something mysterious surrounding video production. It required technical know-how and equipment that only a handful of us were willing to explore. But technology has made video production accessible to all QRCs who are willing to take a little time to learn. If you have been wondering about how you can use video in qualitative research, this presentation is for you!

The presentation will cover the A to Z of qualitative video production. It will start with the very basics of what needs to be taken into account when you plan to use video in qualitative. It will cover the video gathering basics; from the need to have an operator for traditional focus groups, to new video gathering tools like Flip cameras, webcams, and consumer cell-phone video. The presentation will also cover video editing and using video in PowerPoint presentations, online distribution, and DVD video reports. Part of this workshop-style presentation will be interactive and hands-on.

How come some of the people shown on the left don't look Hispanic?

Hispanic or Latino is not a race.   There are Latinos of many different races and physical characteristics.  For more information see our FAQ article, Why doesn't the census include Hispanic as a race?, and the Latino Blog post Let's Stop Segmenting People by Race!
