In the poem called "Poems for Rent" the subject of this poem is about real estate and renting. The form of this seems to be pieced together because the photos were taken by someone and some of the photos were re-created with text inserted in. The audio kind of ties the video together so that you are not just looking at pictures and text. I like the fact that they took and used their own photos which worked very well but I am not sure why they go back and fourth with the pictures from the left to right. A tip that I picked up was to use your own material and not "borrow" and photos.
In the poem called "Everything Sleeps but the Night" the subject of this poem is to show that there are still things going on during the night that people don't see. The form of this piece is interesting because it really doesn't have a story it just looking like a video that was put together. The audio kind of ties the video together because there is no text just pictures. I like the fact that they chose something different that is not as common which worked very well but I am curious why they didn't want to include any text. A tip that I picked up was that you don't have to always use text to tie in with the text.
In the poem called "First Grade Activist" the subject of this poem is about someone's friend that is being teased for being a redhead. The form of this piece is interesting because it reminds you of a story with the text on the left and the video playing on the right that goes along. The audio kind of ties the video together because there it is like an audio book/story. I like the fact that they chose to do a story theme which worked very well but the text does go fast for reader's to read. A tip that I picked up was that you should do a trial run first before you publish so you can see or adjust the text so that the reader has time to read the words.
