Pre Video Assignment, Guichard

Bad multimedia:

This video had a good start with the alarm visuals and the close-ups of the cereal bowl was a good idea but it was blurry. The video is pretty shaky and not well framed. Even though it is filmed by the subject of the video herself, she should have been careful about not cutting her face when she films herself walking, and because she is walking and has no stabilizer, it is very shaky. The panoramic shots of the class rooms are both too short and too fast. The last shot of herself in the night is not focused properly on her face, so it gives her a blurry aspect. I think the idea of the video project was good and interesting, but it is hard to stay interested all along because of technical issues and because she only records her own voice, some ambient sound would have given a better insight on the life of a journalism student.

 The rhythm of the video is very good, the visuals match the music and the voices, it leaves the audience want to see more and to see the full episodes. There are many visuals, and all the shots are pretty short, but because they are well filmed and go well together, it works perfectly. The music is well chosen, it is powerful and at the same time emotional, this video gave me the chills. We want to know more about these 4 women, and even in 1 minute and 20 seconds we get to see that they are strong, determined, but also funny, and sometimes fragile. The multimedia project shows the rollercoaster of emotions thanks to a perfectly controlled rhythm.
