Examples Of Three Minute Wonders

Example One

This 3 Minute Wonder is about a young man called Robert Garza, who has been in prison for 5 years after series of murders. It shows him talking to a interviewer off camera, telling him about the his life on death row and how if affects others. He also talks about the 'Last Supper', which is the last meal a convict eats after he is sentenced to death. It's very powerful in a sense that it the opinion of the death penalty comes from one individual and from what we see, he looks like a normal person until we are told what he did, at the end of the video. It is very clever as this video only uses 7 shots, and are used very effectively.

Example Two

This 3 Minute Wonder is about a women from the Philippines who works as a night cleaner at a train station. This video gives the audience an insight in this individual's life and gives some personal stories. She explains how she would love to get on a train and feel what it is like to be wealthy. This video and what this women says, makes the audience feel sympathetic for her and is supported by slow music and close ups of the individual.
