What was the medium?
What was the purpose of this music video? What are the four main purposes of media?
Who was the intended audience?
What was the explicit (obvious) message?

What is "The Last Post"? When is it played? What is another name for it?

Watch the two minutes of silence with your parent. Ask them if they recognize any of the people or images in the video.
