RJD2 Vid-
This video was extemely effective in making the point of matching images with a musical beat. It did have a music video quality feel... but, that was not a problem considering the imagry shown in the mini montage, was of politcal and social sustance. Which gives the musical video an added layer. The quality of this vid was well done, it takes alot of work to make images in such a timed format and to blend them in well with the backgrounds. I'm assuming that this was created in adobe after effects??? If not after effects then some other program that uses motion capabilities.

This was well done film that used a time based photograpic moving format. I really appreciated how personal this piece was, it really peeled layers off the artist and displayed who he really was. I would have to say that he should have tried to experiment more with other ways to voice himself besides using voice over. I found his voice to be distracing at times making the pacing of the piece lag. Or he could practice more with his voice over and make it with more clarity and annuciation.

DjRabbi: The overall message in this video was a big hard to evaluate. This is mainly due to the subtitles on the bottom screen. There was so much information displayed all at once, it was hard to concentrate on what was most important. I think that if there was a voice over with text that displayed main issues of importance within the text. The voice over would help the flow of the piece, creating a more tangible experiance for the viewer. Otherwise, the message I did gain from this video was very informative. I really enjoyed the sound score.
