Historic Quito Ecuador

Description

Join me as I walk the streets of Historic Quito Ecuador and explore some of its famous landmarks! We’ll visit the Basilica Del Voto Nacional (Basilica of the National Vow) and take in a stunning panoramic view of Quito from its tower. Then we’ll walk through the streets of Quito on our way to El Panecillo, where we’ll get an up-close view of the Virgen de Quito statue.

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.
