Inspiring Videos (For Me Anyway)

I've been browsing the Internet a bit after that last post, and I found a couple videos I'd like to share.  This first short video shows some great examples of scenes from video games that contain strong narratives and recurring themes.  It looks like this was a short project arguing for the inclusion of video game-based projects that focus on the narrative of games.  Though I want to emphasize a lot more in my own video components, it's still encouraging to see!

And just before I hit the post button, here's another encouraging video!  This one is primarily gameplay footage with voice overs and text- definitely something I would like to do.  Also, the video focuses on some of the principles of James Paul Gee, applying them to Western RPGs in order to see what makes this genre so appealing. 

I for one will be sleeping happily tonight, and will be able to sleep even more comfortably once I actually learn how to make videos like this for myself.
