Madama Butterfly

The animated opera Madama Butterfly was very different than anything i have ever seen. The composition was very moving but the animated visual was a little strange. I thought the sad heart-breaking story between the woman and the sailor matched the emotions throughout the entirety of the opera. For example when the woman and the sailor were making love the music was very intense as opposed to when the sailor leaves the music becomes slower and sad.
I was very impressed by the way the animated story was able to connect the way our emotions felt with the vibe of the opera. What was odd to me was the way the characters looked. They were very strange looking and it made it somewhat awkward to watch at certain points.
Overall i thought Madama Butterfly was a good video to watch because it makes you think differently than how you normally would when just listening to the audio. Putting a visual to sound limits imagination but in this situation it brought light to a sad, but yet common love story.
