Nonverbal Analysis of Female-Male Interaction in TV Show “Friends”

This exercise is going to be a nonverbal analysis of a conversation.
You will choose a short clip from your favorite TV show in where there is a female-male interaction. For example, the scene could show a couple resolving a conflict, friends involved in a romantic talk, a boss and his/her employee discussing about a work issue, siblings taking part in a family argument, etc.  After finding your short clip, you will observe the chosen TV interaction without sound. You will then explain the interaction through an analysis of female-male non-verbal communication. If possible after you have made your analysis, re-watch the conversation before putting your observations in writing.  As part of your written analysis, you need to incorporate at least 8 terms from the list below that correspond to the textbook chapter on female-male non-verbal communication. Please highlight all the terms you have chosen in your paper. You will be evaluated on how well you apply and analyze terminology.
