This multimedia project was a captivating piece that incorporated audio and video skills. It told the story of one family from Mexico attempting to migrate to the U.S. Throughout the piece, it really shows the ongoing struggle that these migrants experience everyday. Sleepless nights, hours on foot, continuous hunger – these are just some of the things that the video covers. One person narrates the entire piece, showing the problems that they encounter. The narration adds much description to the piece. The video had some compelling shots; one that really struck me was when the family was walking the streets during the night and the audio that is recorded is a baby crying. Transitions from video to video are clean and easy to follow. The video thoroughly captured the trauma and tiresome lives of these migrants.

Love this concept. Everything about this video is great. I love the idea and how it was composed. The producer really dug deep into Ross MacDonald's life, showing his studio and the process of creating his masterpieces. MacDonald creates the paper that we see in movies. This paper can go from novels to newspapers to notes that instigate an entire storyline. One piece of paper makes a significant impact in a television show or a movie, so I think this was a really creative story to tell. I loved the emotional connection at the end of the video. MacDonald explains how happy it makes him to see just one piece of paper make a huge impact in a movie. This is a great topic because no one really thinks about who creates the pieces of paper plotted in movies. Transitions are smooth and the producer got some interesting shots – shuffling through paper, opening drawers, choosing which pencil to use. Loved this!

Although this was an interesting story, I wasn't too captivated by how it was produced. First, the photos presented of Jacques Bailly when he was younger were in front of bright colors that didn't really support the context of the video. Layered photos or just a classic black/white background would have been better. Also, they should have started with an anecdotal-type of introduction that made the audience hooked to what the video will be about. Instead, much of the video is the man sitting at a desk, flipping through a huge book and pronouncing words. The creativity behind this is lacking. I wish I learned more about how he got into pronouncing words and how this has impacted his life.
