Reflect on the class materials in Module 1A

Compare with ‘How to Make Breakfast – The Victorian Way’ and ‘Great Depression Cooking – The Poorman’s Meal’, they are two totally different kind of way and for different people. The first video Mrs Crocombe is busy making breakfast for Lord and Lady Braybrooke in the kitchens of Audley End House and Gardens. The music and frame are combine together that makes people feel artistic conception. The second video is 91 year old cook and great grandmother, Clara, recounts her childhood during the Great Depression as she prepares meals from the era. Learn how to make simple yet delicious dishes while listening to stories from the Depression. The frame of this video is fuzzy without background music. I think the first one have a commercial interest or endorse a product/organization. However, the second video convey to us about the real world. It contains vitality of life so it is a better representation of the real world than the other.
