Marlboro Marine

1.)
A. Placing separate audio with different videos or pictures that had no sound, editing pictures to make it seem like they were moving, and inserting text where there was no audio to explain what had happened or what was happening.
B. The added power to the slideshow made the video very dramatic and emotional. It was meaningful because of the way his voice sounded while personal pictures were being showed.

2.)
A. The picture of the dead person under dirt and debris. It is powerful because that is what is expected to be the main reason for soldiers to be so traumatized once they return from war.
B. The most powerful sequence of photos are the ones from the first video. The pictures show things from war to him getting married, but the audio shows his real feelings and the truth behind the pictures.
C. The audio makes the pictures seem more real. It feels like we know what it's like to be in his situation or we are at least getting a feel for what it might have been like for him. It also makes it very emotional.
D. The images are all similar or related in regards to his life. It shows us certain pieces from his life that led to his decisions and feelings.
