Greenpeace

Greg S. and Nick W.

Greenpeace is an organization with offices in over 30 countries that are dedicated to helping animals and the environment. They have been around for over 37 years and have come together to ban commercial whaling, convince the world’s leaders to stop nuclear testing, protect Antarctica, and so much more. Their fight to save the planet has grown more serious now with the threat of global warming, destruction of ancient forests, deterioration of oceans, and the threat of a nuclear disaster. Through direct confrontation with polluting corporations and governmental authorities and nonviolent protests, Greenpeace actively works to address these and other threats.

Why do you think this is an effective video?

I really like the music I think it goes along with you message. Also the pictures are sad but effective. I learned a lot from this video about both the environment and how I could do my part to help.

This video is effective because it informs us that we are negatively affecting the environment and taking it for granted. The video provides us with specific numbers and statistics to back up its point.

Well said Katie, the group did a nice job of mixing their audio with their message. The combination of the two soundtracks really helped especially the "Jaws" music at the start.

I love how the dialogue matches with the picture it keeps the viewers focus on what the purpose of greenpeace is. Usually when i watch something I cant focus on it for to long and this video was very easy to focus on that made it effective
