    • This pod is about a hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark called The Hotel Fox. The hotel has 61 rooms designed by 21 artists from all over the world. The hotel is basically an art gallery you sleep in. The pod is three and a half minutes long and follows the hotel manager through different rooms in the hotel as she shows off some of the art and outlines the philosophy behind having the hotel setup the way it is.

      The filming-style is done entirely on-the-shoulder and gives the audience the feel that they are literally being taken on a tour through the hotel, which I think is effective for the piece. The music is used effectively, especially when it is synced with B-Roll camera movement.

      I think the piece would have benefited from more quick cuts between shots of art in the room. It would have gone a long way to show viewers more of the art and to make it feel a little quicker and less like a tour.
