  • 3/7 11:55 am - Informative piece. Very well written package with an interesting angle of how the construction effects the community.The footage is creative and matches the audio. In the future don't have the interviewee hold the microphone. Either hide it or have it our of frame,
  • 3/5 4:12 pm - Also, great use of natural sounds underneath interviews.
  • 3/5 4:12 pm - The opening shot could have been adjusted for the light on the reporter's face. B-roll fantastically matches the story. Interviews are well shot and responses are chosen wisely. Great variety of perspectives and opinions. Well done!
Judge 1

Positives: great broll- especially the drone! your timing was really gerat as well for the editing. liked that you did interviews with different takes on the construction. way to present both sides of the story

Improvements: there was some fuzz in the audio during some of the interviews

Judge 2

Positives: Good information. Relevant topic. Good job using active shots.

Improvements: Narrator loses energy in VO's. Noticeable when interviews come right after narration and their level of energy is more forceful. MOS's - content is good. Background noise is bad. Too much ambient sound. Next time if the mic doesn't isolate the background noise, change locations.
