Both approaches certainly have their charm...the 'reveal' when having to scroll in chapter 1 is pretty effective. I assumed you chose the 2x4 in chapter 2 merely to give this chapter it's own unique character. Honestly, I can't pick one over the other..heh I'm too blown away to choose to be perfectly frank :)
I love the screen style, Rami--I think it fits the silent parts especially well, and gives the story a more zen-like flow, if I may be cliched about it. WONDERFUL.
I think this new format works better, not so much because of the less scrolling but because the images are bigger, clearer, every detail amplified. Our visual intake is affected by the change (for the better).
I'm really enjoying the shots of the animals as well. It lends a subtle, beautiful touch to this otherwise harsh story.
