I actually enjoy looking at multimedia projects. I've watched many from mediastorm.com. One that I thought was very different was one called 1976.


I love how its almost cartoon-like with the pictures popping up and looking like they are moving even though they are still photos. Even though I don't really understand the situation that Cuba was experiencing in 1976, the images and the way the producers portray the images give me an idea of what the problem was.

One of my favorites that we saw in fundamentals was "Trapped-Mental Illness in America's Prisons." 


I love the music and how dramatic it makes it feel. The video adds to the realness of the situation so that you can put actions to how these people's emotions. I think this slideshow was done exceptionally well.
