This is a great classroom video. Moody makes others, but this looks most appropriate for middle or high school classrooms. This tape has great time lapsed photography with views I had not seen before. This will be great to excerpt for a classroom.

This three-part video shows amazing complexity of design in three realms: the planet earth (forces of nature and plants), the animal kingdom, and the human body. If you knew a famous artist and walked through an exhibit of his or her work, but none of the masterpieces noted the artist responsible, that would affect your enjoyment. All the beauty and skill is on display, but your friend is getting short shrift. These videos allow the viewer to both enjoy amazing design skill and wisdom, as well as seeing the Artist getting (finally) proper attribution for his work. Memorable segments are self-planting seeds, trees that daily lift a ton of water hundreds of feet, dancing direction-giving bees, salmon with "noses" that beat any dog, and the human brain and heart. The video came out in the 1990s, so clothing styles and Olympics references are becoming dated.
