3.Cropping. / The mirror of nature reflects a subtle space of imagination.
4.Differentiation of speeds. / A sigh of relief.
When the staff tried to scan the passenger’s hand with the equipment to ensure safety, slow motion is used to emphasize the tension by creating a sense of solidified atmosphere. With the red light popping, a symbol of approval, everything was back to normal.
5.Quick motion. / Decreased traffic flow.

Good attempt at going for a coherent color tonality to the collection and to correspond different camera techniques in each video. Nice cropping in Video 3 to document the vehicular speed through the reflection of the puddles. It would perhaps be even more effective if you crop the actual vehicles out of the frame and focuses only on the reflection. For video 4, curiously, the slow motion doesn’t quite convey the tension. How else could you convey the anxiety over personal health safety? Perhaps it is not only a question of the technique but also the perspective or angle from which the video is taken. Consider also highlighting that exchange through focusing on the moment of contact.
