Bad Multimedia Project:
This video project consists of a series of videos and a few photos that are clearly shot on a cell phone. While not bad in and of itself, most clips were vertical, which distracts and takes away the full picture of the scene. Almost all clips are in slow-motion and are often repeated, which is a good effect to use once in a while but not all the time. The background music jumps around constantly with no transition, also distracting viewers. Perhaps most importantly, there is little to no context of what is happening and why, with only a few interspersed captions of events and the title itself.
Good Multimedia Project:
This spot highlighting a Thai restaurant in Washington D.C. is crafted very well as an engaging story to draw the user in and build interest in visiting. Interviews are set up with the subject off to the right and looking across the camera, zoomed in to focus on his emotional expressions. The b-roll matches very well with the content of the interviews, giving visual context. These shots are also a good variety of detailed food shots and medium/overall shots of the process of cooking and serving. The music is light, happy, and not distracting. Overall, the context and the story make this an excellent project.
