Judge 1

Positives: good energy nice intro great packages

Improvements: set looks very flat (lighting) audio has interference during anchor segments

Judge 2

Positives: All of the package segments have solid editing, ensuring the pace of the story and retaining the viewers' attention.

Improvements: The audio was recorded overly, which peaked the levels. Remember to do a sound check before going to broadcast! Your anchors could have used a bit more rehearsal time, so as to tighten their cues between lines.

Judge 3

Positives: The news packages were very well shot and looked great. The news team seemed to function well together and obviously had enthusiasm for their work.

Improvements: The news packages looked good, but often did not have much story behind them. The lighting for the anchors in the studio was rather cold and harsh, and clashed with the smooth, well lit images captured for the news packages.
