- 4/23 3:14 pm - I think you had excellent interviews with a variety of perspectives, I don’t know that they all fit together. Is this a controversy or an issue, or was this just a bunch of e-bike safety tips. Your story never really came out early on to set the table of what the story was so I kept trying to piece it together myself (opposing views or similar views etc). Your B-roll was generally good, but there was not to much natural sound (clicking a helmet on, a bike sprocket, etc) in this piece which is the whole point of the category.
- 3/25 7:04 am - This is a good news package, but it’s not a natural audio news package. The natural audio in the b-roll was not used in any way to help tell the story, and that’s the primary focus of this category. How are you using the natural audio from your b-roll to help tell the story or move the story forward. Your b-roll was good and the people you interviewed were good for this story. It just doesn’t fit the category in the way the category is intended.
- 3/4 11:24 am - Interviews were well framed to discuss e-bikes and safety. I love how you got an interview with your mayor! I was wanting to hear more sounds to support this story- besides the wind outside and the sound of the bikes, what other natural audio could tell the story? The mayor talked about people discussing and educating each other- could you incorporate some of that? This was a great start!
