Thanks for your thoughtful response.

I don’t think we really disagree (though I enjoy a little argument now and then) because in your explanation of wide shots and establishing shots you’ve gone way beyond what I suspect most non-video teachers who assign students to make videos teach. And it wouldn’t take long to teach these concepts to students either.

Sorry about the shortened carnival deadline (you made it in under the wire) but it just means they’ll be a second carnival sooner than later. Come back again Wednesday when this first carnival posts.
