Directors Ariel Schulman and Henry Joost sure do love to contemplate the way technology informs the identity of modern day teenagers. Just as Akira Kurosawa frequently utilizes samurai in his tales or how Kathryn Bigelow examines the complex nature of modern-day warfare, Schulman and Joost seem to have a fixation on the way teens love their iPhone and internet judging by their past work like the 2010 documentary
Catfish (which I haven't seen as of this writing) or the teaser trailer for their feature film
Paranormal Activity 4, which centered on creepy things happening during a teenage girl's Skype call.
