Free Essay On A Rare View Of Polar Bears

In this video, Bob Simon explores new high-tech techniques that modern wildlife movie makers use to capture pictures and scenes that are breathtakingly clear and of high quality. Specifically, the video tells of how the ‘spy-cam’ techniques have been used by filmmakers to bring viewers unseen-before views of polar bears in their natural habitats. The video clip combines high quality, cleverly organized scenes with the narration to introduce the viewer to these techniques which offer the audiences a rare chance to experience bears (and other wild animals) closer than they ever did before. Simon says that these new ‘spy-cam’ cameras enable wildlife filmmakers to show polar bears undertaking their normal, uninterrupted lifestyle. The scenes of polar bears in their natural habitats, captured up close using the high-tech spy cameras, speak of the power of the said techniques filmmakers are using. The movie is breathtaking and interesting to say the least, attesting to the efficiency of the said ‘spy-cam’ techniques.
I think that this video goes a long way in exploring the way wildlife movie makers have leveraged the spy camera techniques to bring their audiences rare views of animals. The video does this by showing high quality streams of polar bears going about their life. Simon does an outstanding job in making this video, as is evident in the quality and organization of the movie, and the powerful, thought-provoking manner in which he presents it to the viewer. The views of polar bears are especially great and I was tempted to review the scenes to get a second glance. Short as it is, the video clip keeps the audience glued to the screen and by the time it is done, the viewer thinks that it was a worthwhile ‘watch’.
