Video: Just Being There
The story is in third person point of view. The narrator is part of the action of the story, but it is coming from him.
It is the narrator's voice that we hear.
Element #2:
"Sometimes, grown-ups make bad decisions. These decisions may result in life-changing losses for children."
Element #3:
The emotional paradigms portrayed in this story are death and loss.
Element #4:
The effect of the voice from this story is very powerful. There is a genuine concern sound in the voice. The voice also gives off a sense of being lost and confused.
Element #5:
There is a soundtrack to this video, and I think it represents the message very well. The music is not fast-paced and upbeat, but it does have a positive rhythm that highlights the children being able to work their way through the dark occurrences in their lives.
Element #6:
The sequence and transitions are expertly strung together. There is a brief moment where the screen is black, and the narrator is just speaking. This is such an important part of the story, where the narrator is discussing the question he was asked and how it made him feel. The lack of an image gives the viewer time to focus on the question and how it makes them feel.
Element #7:
The narrator uses a nice pace in his storytelling. He gives pauses to give time to reflect and he repeats important phrases (like "I just sit and listen").
