Masque Dance with Audience Participation
Description
Professor Thomas Betteridge, Brunel University London with hellotothefuture.com, shot by seriousdatum.com.
“In England, Tudor court masques developed from earlier guisings, where a masked allegorical figure would appear and address the assembled company—providing a theme for the occasion—with musical accompaniment; masques at Elizabeth‘s court emphasized the concord and unity between Queen and Kingdom.” [Wikipedia]
What Works Well
This video is simple and static, but allows for a very clear view of a modern interpretation of a 17th century masque dance.

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.
