2028 Summer Olympics
I recently watched an explainer video by Cameron Markray, who did a rundown of the 2028 Summer Olympics. As someone who doesn’t watch the olympics, I liked that he gave me a rundown of Information before he dived Into the topic he was Interested In which was the “no new build” strategy that the city of Los Angeles as hosts are taking.
The Information he gave was so Insightful and gave a different point of view of what’s happening at a city level during the olympics. One note I would make Is, he started off well by showing different visuals, but halfway through the video he kept one Image up, which can sometimes be a bit boring.
I think If the video had been more Interactive, It would’ve been more capturing visually. But overall the Information he’s put out was something new I learned about the upcoming olympics In L.A.
