• 4/24 11:14 am - + Good b-roll of the actual event +Nice interview composition w/ the back background +I like how you interviewed people at the event - Florida is spelled incorrectly. Always make sure to check spelling -Graphics overlap for a moment...between beginning and lower third of first interview
• 4/22 3:29 pm - Good relevant topic, but it felt more like a news package as it didn't develop a consistent narrative as much as a montage of student opinion. The audio with the studio interviews were distracting.
• 3/5 2:32 pm - Positives: Great opening music to set the tone; the b-roll to shows many parts of the walkout with students at various energies, speaking fom their heart; shots of social media are used effectively; Areas for improvement: With this thought-provoking topic, cross-dissolves in the opening sequence would support a more gentle pace; natural audio at 1:36 is not needed as it doesn't add anything, and the music bed at that point almost drops out.
