- What details about the Holocaust experience became clearer or more vivid for you because of the video?
- Describe the video techniques used to tell this story:
- Camera angles
- Graphics
- Interviewing
- Excerpts from the book
- What is the "madness" the Oprah and Elie Wiesel speak of at the end of this section?
Answers:- The way how everything was programmed and why the Jews didn't know what to expect became more clear, because i thought that some of the Jews knew that the camps they were at were death camps.
- Camera Angles- the angles in this documentary are very impressive, like how they had the angle of the train door closing from inside, and the angles of Oprah and Elie Weisel are walking from a far. Graphics- the footage of the bulldozer moving the dead bodies and the pictures of all the victums were very graphic and very vivid and bold. Interviewing- I like how it was just like a walk in the park and a friendly conversation type of interview, they both looked relaxed and comfortable with each other which made the video more natural. Excerpts from the book- i like how they made it detailed with the subtitles and the voice over of Elie.
- The madness that they are talking about is like, how can a human be inhuman and how a person can just easily kill millions of people and not hear any commotion about it right after it's done.
