Entry Description

Rachael and Michael Sepe describe living with their daughter Scarlett, and her diagnosis of SMA.

Judge 1

Positives: Good use of photos/video. Good shots of the baby to establish story.

Improvements: Music audio conflicted with their VO and narration. Audio seemed hollow at times. Sometimes music was distracting - should have been brought down in volume.

Judge 2

Positives: effective use of pictures and video in b-roll; good information with fullscreens at the end.

Improvements: Music sounded weird in certain spots, like it was being sped up or as though there were pops in the song; I would have bad the last picture of Scarlett be a picture of her smiling.

Judge 3

Positives: Good content. Good documentary of real symptoms.

Improvements: Overuse of side blurs. Sound could be crisper.
