Judge 1

Positives: Good shot at airport to show refugee. Liked lower thirds. Interesting to hear about hardships.

Improvements: Audio isn't consistent. Music is somewhat distracting. Lighting needs help. Show lower thirds a couple times if you're on someone for a long time. Might help to recap some of longer issues with coordinating text on fullscreens.

Judge 2

Positives: Nice looking lower thirds; good b-roll from the airport.

Improvements: Lighting in interview with Andrew looked dark; audio levels in the interviews was much lower than the reporter track.

Judge 3

Positives: Good content/story and follow through. Perceive through refugee's eyes.

Improvements: Ended abruptly (realizing this was cut to fit time). Could interview refugees themselves.
