    Lost Blonde in a Cornfield

    I'd like to know what you all think of this. I found it interesting, albeit on the long side.

    In your opinion, do you think the images are secondary to the text? How do you suppose these frames would work without the captions?

    BTW, I had the sound on mute when I saw this, so didn't realize there was a voice rambling on as well. I don't think I would have made it to the end with all that going on simultaneously!

    WOW, my head hurts! and where the hell did she get all the fruit? In my opinion, a bunch of very nice photos were thrown into a very poorly produced (though aesthetically pleasing) multimedia presentation.

    I made it about 30 seconds into the presentation if that tells you anything...

    I am curious as to why you posted it.
    Did you do this? Or are you looking do to something like this? Or what?

    I thought it was an unusual project. I also wanted to know members' opinions of the use of text this way - How do you suppose these frames would work without the captions?

    Nope, I have no strong desire to do anything like this
