Revolutions in general are greatly influenced and by corrupt leadership. For example, the Russia Revolution started with the hopeless Tsar and Tsarina, while in France, it was king Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. All revolutions are a time for new ideas to be created, abolishment of the old political system and government. What I learned about revolutions were all of them ended with hundreds of thousands of people dead and all revolutions are full of sacrifices, loss and pain. the long term effects seem more beneficial and effective than the short term effects. The French Revolution ended with Napoleon being emperor and an orderless country left in chaos. But however, Napoleon had made France into a strong industrial country with strong military power and wealth. But most importantly, all people were free and equalled that they would have never have gotten if it weren’t for the revolution.

The information in the video was easy to understand and supported with appropriate cutouts. Maybe you could condense your information a little bit because the video is pretty long. But overall, good job!
I think your video included a detailed explanation of the French Revolution that was easy to understand. I also think you guys did a great job with the cutouts. The camera was a bit shaky at times, so maybe next time you guys can try to improve that. Good job!!
I loved how you had every label to go with your speaking and I also liked the photos, it was very entertaining! I learned that the French Revolution wasn’t all about people’s head being chopped off and there is a lot of meaning behind the deaths of each person. The background wind noises was a bit distracting however I think it was a very fun informational piece! Good job! 🙂
