It was very intense footage. Scenes of clips put together, they all fit very nicely. And everything was cut really good togetger. The footage was also very clear, you could see everything perfectly.
Dramatic music was used throughout the whole entire Doc. They used appropiate music for each different thing they wanted, every different scene. They even had footage in colour as well, having war footage in colour, I would really think would be hard to have. Also with the music - they had to remake all the sound effects themselves, so they have to put a lot of hard work into this doc. They interviewed people that actually paticipated in the war - which makes the doc more interesting and more realisitc and adds depth - and for the people that participated in the war - to tell their story adds a lot of emotion, and you could almost begin to imagine what they have been through - and the people they've seen die and lost.
The tone of the doc, is sad ( the greatest generation ) You feel sorrow for them.
The angelation of shots is very nice, and cut well together. Very smooth tranistions into new ones.
Good shots, mixed with the horror shots.
Telling their stories really hits home.
Lot's of hate, destruction, explosion going on in this doc. But is to be expected in a War Doc.
Back then people would have thought their whole word was coming down on them, all the fear they felt and went through during thr war. All the horror.
WWI was just the beginning and lead to another war WWII
The music adds a lot of depth and some dramatic effects. - having the narrator talking through the whole entire doc. The sad stories that are told - adds intensity. Nice shots of the cities - which relates to what each person says to relate to their story as they tell it.
Seeing the actual people in the war from today from back then adds a lot to the doc - and all the clips are old, and have no sound.
Seeing young soliders - not knowing what they are doing - with rifles - everything. The untited states, wasn't exactly the real thing back then. (they were a joke)
As the doc goes on - it gets a lot more intense - showing real grim footage of people dying, being hung, shot, and treated like their nothing - all the canadians faught hard for our country. And died doing it.
All this sends a really grim message.
One of the biggest mistakes in the war, was the attack at peark harbour. Government and everything was falling apart. And some people have no clue what is going on. Everything is at stake - peoples lives.
So much stress - for EVERYONE.
This doc was super well made.
