a teachertube video....

Though this video deals with a concentration other than English or literature, this video by Jeremy Wetherhold is a brilliant example of a video created from still images and a limited number of sounds. A video of this format could be created in conjunction with any concentration using a program such as windows movie maker. PS I am currently in the midst of a video creation of my own...my directorial debut...and I will be sure to post it upon completion.....
