Two Map Videos

Global Concepts in Maps is an abbreviated excerpt from a longer educational film about map projections; more information here. I want to see the whole thing, but my, that doesn’t mean it’s good.

The risible style of 1950s educational films is imitated in “Your Map Collection” (part one, part two) a modern production by (and about) the staff of the University of Washington Libraries Map Collection. The sepia filter and sense of humour misfire, but hey, it’s a staff video.
