Documentary

Entry Description

"Cheer Club - Where EVERYone is welcome." An original documentary.

Judge 1

Positives: Like the pep squad shots. Good to mix in photos with b-roll.

Improvements: Leave the titles up longer at the start. Audio was mono for a large portion of clip. Music was a bit distracting in the background. Tight shots or interesting angles would have helped tell story. Picking better spots for interviewees.

Judge 2

Positives: Great story, nice to see footage of the cheering.

Improvements: Interviews needed improvement with lighting and white balancing; would have used a lav mic instead of a handheld for the interviews; music at the end over the cheering footage should have been dropped and only nat sound should have been used.

Judge 3

Positives: Good interviews of the cheerleaders themselves. Creative content.

Improvements: Music overpowering at times. Sound was inconsistent at times.
