  • 3/23 11:14 am - Strong opening / Grading story- solid fundamentals / Inauguration story- screens in background of interviews distracting- not much of a story; no student footage besides interviews / Lot development story- good fundamentals / Impressive weather- is it necessary though with smartphones everywhere? / Rough transition to sports; Sports anchor’s back is turned too far away from us; great set and graphics! / Great remaining segments, skateboarding / Very impressive show!!! THIS IS student broadcast journalism- no frills, no gimmicks, the real deal!
  • 3/6 12:07 pm - WOW! Fantastic work here-- this is an excellent presentation and incredibly professional, well done! Stories are timely and informative and well-produced. I could easily see this show being inserted somewhere on cable TV and fitting in with other professionally produced news programs. Talent is exceptional- I will be showing this to my classes as an example of what we are trying to achieve-- you guys should be proud of your work, it's not easy to put a show together like this and do it so well! GREAT WORK!

Positives: I liked the opening, using footage to cover what you're talking about - I'd start though on the person talking...if only for a few seconds. Very clear information from the anchors - good job. Good variety of reporting, human interest, informational.

Improvements: Watch everyone's talking cadence. It gets a little sing-songy. I really liked the piece on grades, but I felt like nothing really came from it. Remember to resolve your stories in some way. Even if it's to say: no big decisions yet, but... Your weather person needs to cheat a little towards camera and take a minute to look at the camera throughout the piece.

Positives: The anchors seemed really comfortable on the desk I liked that you had sports and weather in your newscast The reporters did a nice job

Improvements: I felt the Trump package need a little work. You mentioned riots but I didn't see any video of riots.
