Celebramos los 110 Años del Natalicio de Frida Kahlo

Description

[The Irazú volcano is an active stratovolcano. The last serious activities were in the early 1960s, but there were still explosions in the 1990s. During a visit to the volcano, you don’t have to be afraid of an eruption. It is completely safe to visit the volcano.]

Level of Guidance

Guidance Level 1
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.
