• 4/22 3:22 pm - Great visual story, built on a variety of perspectives, speed and detail, but not seeing the players and coaches you talked with made it feel artificial and overplayed. In a documentary you need to prove the authenticity by matching faces and voices.
• 4/20 5:26 pm - +Good attention getter! +Good cinematography throughout +I like the structure of this piece +Nice coverage following this story -I would like to see faces of players and people talking at some point. People show emotions on their faces and we miss that when we only hear their VO's
• 3/5 2:05 pm - Positives: Strong opening with a very supportive music bed; great use of text to take you through the day; Areas for improvement: Locate titles where they are readable, or put an outer glow or semi-transparent panel behind them;

Positives: Nice choice of music, pacing and overall editing. The music and the emotions of the story were appropriate and well executed. The sound mix and use of play-by-play was also well done.

Improvements: As much as I enjoyed this story - I fear the viewer would never be able to have a complete connection to it because we never got to know the characters - the viewer doesn't know who is talking, what they look like, the emotion on their faces as they tell this story. Put your speakers on camera so the viewer can follow along better and have a greater emotional connection.

Judge 2

Positives: The storytelling builds tension well. The game play footage is well shot.

Improvements: The audio levels are inconsistent. Use a volume units meter to check levels. I can hear distortion in some of the voiceovers.

Judge 3

Positives: Audio and visual quality were very well. The feel was very inspirational!

Improvements: SUggest using a tripod for some shots rather than handheld. It would have been nice to see the interviews of the audio, even if they were quick shots. rather than just all of the game which ould humanize the players/fans and make us identigy with them more than just hte hgame itself.
