Finn, this is an interesting choice of video - a pastiche of the scene with Omar in 'The Wire' right down to the cheerios! You apply some theory effectively, although to secure a L4, I would expect to see more detailed semiotic analysis of different visual signifiers such as the crying, the dressing gown, location etc. Also, how do the two texts link? While the video is comical, is there any kind of different, more social commentary reading here? Also, why his face in the cereal?
