The theme was subtle at first but I got it at the end of the video. All images were of good quality and the image sequence near the end really enhanced the meaning of it being 2025. The edits to the timing were good, there was only one image that seemed to be timed faster than all of the others. My only critique would be the effect on the first slide with your name and the few kens burn which were in there, I don’t think they were necessary as your images did great on their own. I like how you set up your credits as well. You did a great job!
I was a bit confused about your theme until I watched it twice. Not a bad thing, subtlety is nice. I did like how it transitioned into the over-arching message more clearly at the end. The edits were really nice, and I did like how the sounds dictated the cuts. The images were also very interesting as the shift went from retro to modern yet somehow we seem worse off. Very nice message with images that can evoke several different meanings depending on their use. Great job!
