Topic-Related Video Today

So. . .

For todays assignment, we will look at a video and give our thoughts on it. Well, thats the instructions in a more simpler sentence.

Task 4: instructions
After you clicked the video icon,
 Find a video about your focus in the assignment. You will not hear it.
 Just explain what you see in the video.

Above is the full instructions. Because I am doing this in-class, the sound is disabled. Well, for appropriate and obvious purposes.

I decided to directly insert it from the "toolbar" in the editing New Post page.

Well, sometimes words and sounds can paint a more understandable picture. . . especially in this situation. . .

So, it starts off with a cultural historian talking. This part was clearly useless so I skipped it. Then there is a random spinning birds view of a city. . .looks like a large one too. . .more talking. . .then there is a scene of a mob gathering in the streets. Then there is an airplane view of a train moving across a landscape. Then there is another sky view of a street with. . .cars and people. People walking. More street views. Papers flying. Oh wait. . . thats money. Not paper.

This is really, really, really. . .leading me nowhere.

Okay, after the flying money, there is more street views. Then there is the talking man again. More black and white street views.

I am going to stop right now.

 Just explain what you see in the video.

Oh. Now for the explanation:

. . .Uh. . .I saw some black and white filming of depressed people walking through the streets of New York. I did not learn much from this, but at least I saw quite a little bit of footage from the 1930's. But there is only the sound to blame. If everyone in the classroom would be blasting documentaries from their school computers, there is not any hope for myself.
