You did an amazing job on this Heather! Your grandmother is a fascinating person! I was memorized by the way he spoke about such painful things in such a matter-of-fact way.
I felt very connected to your Grandmother as she told the story. You did a great job focusing on a few events to provide the audience insight not just into your grandmother life but the whole generation that was impacted by the Great Depression and War.
The part about your Grandfather burning the letters in the road is powerful image and emotionally compelling.
The music set a perfect mood for your grandmothers words. The camera angle draws us into her face and helps convey the emotional content of her story.
My one thought or suggestion for improvement has to do with ending. It seems like the quote "You don't know you are poor until someone tells you" should have some still images of your grandmother or of the time period and then fade out. Right now it ends a little to abruptly.
I really enjoyed your digital story. The first thing that I noticed was the music. It was the perfect choice because it set the mood. The other thing that I really liked about your story is that you mixed pictures with quotes and switched back and forth to the interview with your grandma. I also liked that she shared some memories that were funny; all of her memories were not sad. Great job!
The best thing about your story is that you combined quotes/pictures with the actual interview. I felt very connected with the story and the music definitely set the mood. Wonderful!
I really enjoyed watching your digital story. Your choice of images really complement the story. The music in the background really enhances the impact and fits perfectly.
You did a fantastic job. It was very well put together and professional. The interview with your grandmother and the pictures were a perfect complement to each other.
