  • 3/7 11:39 am - Inspiring story. The interviews at the pool were visually creative but audio was distracting. Footage of PT was powerful and really enhanced the story. Need more light at the interview location as well.
  • 3/5 3:59 pm - Audio in the interviews is not great -- would have been better had you used a microphone or interviewed them outside of the pool. The pool is great for a background, but if we can't hear the story, it doesn't matter. Good use of natural sound and b-roll. The lighting is a little dark throughout. This is a great story to cover, and I think that, overall, it is done well.
