Melinda, I really enjoyed watching your remix!
I like the structure of your remix that the quotes and footages are linked together (e.g. after watching your remix a few times, I feel like the quotes are not only for the specific clips after that, but also all other footages, which hold the whole remix together in my opinion. And this somehow reminds me of how I read Ways of Seeing). Also, the use of Battle Hymn of the Republic as both the beginning and the ending makes it complete, it's interesting how the same song feels so different and brings different emotions (e.g. The beginning feels positive and hopeful, while the ending feels somehow negative and tragic).
(Just a quick question though, are all words in lowercase on purpose?)
