- 4/19 9:04 am - POSItIVES: The low, flat shots make the whole piece more interesting. Slap Shot detail is great! Good job limiting to 3 skills, and covering them well. GREAT Audio-- the VO is solid, and the music bed is properly balanced. Night shots make it more exciting! SUGGESTIONS: When going through the specifics of the Wrist Shot, you don't always see what's happening with the puck. Could have used a slow-mo of the wrist action. Also BLACK gloves against BLACK pants, shot at night make it tougher to see details.
Judge 1
Positives: Good clear script. Good camera angles. A nice demo piece.
Improvements: Hard to see some of the instruction as the dark night and the black gloves and other black items all blend together. Could have been a bit longer to cover items in depth. This seems cut off at the end.

Positives: Great job with the nat sound, but try to make sure that it always matches what you are doing. One of the best ways to do this is to put a lav on the top of the skate. This will give you crisp audio. I like the script and the words that you use for this video. I like the lighting at night and the variety of shots that you use. It is hard to shoot hockey videos, but you do a solid job with the camera work. I also think you do an excellent job of offering the backstory of the game.
Improvements: You miss some steps in the video. There is really more to the slap shot than what you exhibited. At times, I think you miss some parts of the process. I mentioned the nat sound above, but I would make sure that you focus on trying to match it up more smoothly with the video being shown.

Positives: The narrator has a love of the sport--and that comes through. For a video like this that is a bonus. Great edits and transitions--hockey is hard to shoot, so this adds to the video. Appropriate use of slo-mo.
Improvements: Vary the transitions a little-don't rely on the quick fade because it signals finality
