3/10 12:47 pm - Strengths: Beautiful shooting/broll. Framing is awesome! Very professional. Work on: Storytelling. Needed a stronger lead to set it up as a stand-alone piece (without an anchor intro) Minor technical improvements: slight upcut at 1:23. Also: mismatched b-roll; I wanted to see the founder when the script mentions her at :05 - I thought she was the cashier? Also, at 1:43 any video that matched better? Minor fixes would have made the story much clearer
2/26 1:25 pm - The opening is confusing, almost like I missed something. You reference a person and then immediately we see a different person being interviewed. The audio for the interview is not great. It sounds like the front mic was used here. Is the person they are talking about who started this still alive, this wasn't clear. I think the visuals are quite nice but I think this leaves a lot of questions.
