Marlboro Marine

Sinco grew on his Miller, he became emotionally attached and therefore, cared just that much more about his work His slide show told a story and delivered a message through text, audio & image.

The effect of the slide show moves the public. It surprisingly meant a lot in the end because of how deeply entrapped the audience became with Miller. The central message of how difficult it is for him to just get on with life like before, how suicide was a serious option and the feeling of under appreciation ate at him. 

The image that spoke to me the most was the icon for the war. Simply because he's all dressed up & ready, yet still aloof and gone.

The most powerful sequence of images was when Miller was standing on a parking meter and he was saying how he felt isolated & it went to stop motion with blurs of people walking by. When he ended his sentence he was alone again.

The audio aided in telling the story, progressing it & allowing us to get inside Miller's head & feel his pain as he feels it. 

The chronological order of the photos and how it related to what Miller was saying progressed the story.
