Many of these questions are subjective and about your personal interpretations. Breaking them down a little might help you.
1.At the beginning of the video describe your thoughts on the mood of the environment?
Look at the images and listen to the sounds. The mood of the environment could be anything, like lonely, scary, desolate, dystopian, mystic, or nostalgic. It's about the feeling of the place.
How does it make you feel?
This is something only you can answer. How do you feel watching and listening to it? Maybe you feel uneasy, peaceful, worried, or confused.
2.Describe in 2 or more sentences, the colors that you SEE in the sky and the landscape?
Start with the sky. What colors do you see? There are a lot, and they change. You can use descriptive terms, technical words about the saturation, or metaphors. Then, do the same with the landscape (the scenery and ground).
3. Describe and use specific evidence that shows Juxtaposition (putting two different things side by side that don’t normally go together).
Pay attention for images (and sounds) that don't usually go together. For example, does the moon belong with that sunrise? Describe what you see, explain the two things that don't go together, and why.
4. Describe and use specific evidence that shows Dislocation (when objects are placed where they shouldn’t be).
This is similar to the last question. Find an object that isn't where it should be (what about the people?). Describe what you see and how it is showing dislocation.
5. Describe and use specific evidence that shows Transformation (turning something familiar into something unusual and disturbing).
Look for things that have been changed in some way from what you would expect. Maybe something stretching, twisting, or discoloring. Describe what you see and how it changed into something unusual.
6. Did your mood, perspective and thoughts change since the beginning of the journey? Explain in two or more sentences.
This is something only you can answer. Break it down into pieces and watch again if you need to. Refer back to question 1. What are you feeling now? Do you have any thoughts about what you just saw? Did it remind you of anything, make you wonder about something, or give you a new idea?
