Among the Hong Kong Protesters as they Fight Controversial Extradition Bill

Description

Hong Kong came to a standstill once again this week after more than a million protesters filled its streets in protest over a proposed extradition bill for the second week in a row. Hong Kong resident Thomas Boarder captured the march and protest on 360° video and made it available to news organisations.

What Works Well

This video puts the viewer on the streets with the millions of Hong Kong residents who marched against a controversial agreement that would have extradited citizens to mainland China.

Level of Guidance

What does this mean?

The Level of Guidance indicates how much the creator has imbued the video with a sense of at what the viewer should be looking.

For instance, a Level 1 video would mean that the camera has been left in place while life happens around it, allowing you, as the viewer, to simply observe. A Level 2 video might incorporate subtle visual, textual or audible hints or simple transitions. A Level 3 video would rely on a handful of hints and transition. A Level 4 video would employ multiple hints and dialogue. And a Level 5 video would rely on all of the above as well as a narrative arc that pushes the viewer forward.

Another way of looking at this would be how much production went into the video if you are considering making one of your own like it.
