  • 3/7 11:07 am - Story was unique in the angle you took. The use of natural sound enhanced the story. Footage creatively matched audio and loved the "focus" audio matching the dancers "focusing." The variety of shots in your footage also enhanced the story as it would have been simple to just get the team practicing but having close ups, medium, & wide shots helped execute this story. Writing was excellent.
  • 3/5 3:34 pm - I appreciated that this story didn't just cover the dance team, but what makes their current situation unique. The voice over is clever and well written. The b-roll effectively illustrates what the dance team is capable of. A good variety of wide, medium, and tight. Selections of sound bites were well chosen. Good work overall!
Judge 1

Positives: Nice job invovling different subjects who had slightly different perspectives of the dance team. Good broll! way to visually represent your story well!

Improvements: did a good job with the story- i would have liked to see the voiceover be a little less "newsy" and more casual and engaging

Judge 2

Positives: Well written and well executed.. This package employed excellent use of sound and visuals.Good start and finish, Good right/ left balance in interviews. B-roll supported narrative well.

Improvements: Narrator's inflection can be improved. A bit "sing-song." Can improve with a little practice.
