The in studio debate was a good idea and made a change from the usual introduction of a package. The questions are good however it didn't come across as natural coverage like Gareth and Becky were having a conversation. I think this was the idea however it was just Becky reading from a sheet and came across a bit strange to me.
Lou's Package is very good, however to a simpleton like myself it is a big confusing. I'm not really sure about services being cut and merged I think it is a bit hard to explain to your average Joe. The first interview is framed well, however the second is a bit awkward the man is sort of staring in to no where towards the camera he needs to turn to his right to be better framed. But over all a good package.
The pedophile story is a bit long, Flick delivers the information needed very well and is well framed in the shot. However there is a lack of cutaways which is understandable, but it makes the package drag out a bit, possible better in a OOV. Also there is a shot of the court that pops up after Flicks sing off, maybe a technical issue.
The parking story is a good local story, all be it a bit dull it is relevant to our audience a good mix of shots keeps the viewer interested. Lee has done well to get the interview, who gives a good quote asking why the prices are being raised giving his opinion. The interview with the councillor gives balance explaining the reason for the rise.
The festival story Good use of natural sound at the start. And lets face it, it is a shameless promotion for Winchester University.
The University App is an interesting story, and maybe could of been made in to a longer package maybe with some vox-pops as this story directly affects students. This appeals directly to our target market.
SPORT. The Totton package had to dominate sport as it was such a big story. It was well covered and edited. Stefan Brown interview was good, but as Angus said, he had set a world record for the fastest goal ever scored off the bench so this could have been focused on more. Possibly with a follow up feature after scoring the hat trick.
The final story is good again some shameful self promotion but still a interesting story. The shots of Aaron talking into the microphone then talking over that from the first part of his interview was a bit confusing. The interview with Joy carter was well framed and it is good to get her opinion the charity radio show.
ICE HOCKEY- Much of the same from me again. I feel I am starting to master the ice Hockey packages. As it was low scoring game I didn't get a chance to use a score counter in the corner. I did a feature where I travelled to the Bison's home ground and did two interviews and got on the ice myself. I decided to make it funny as it will be better to watch. I did a fast paced scene of of me putting the gear on then cut to a slow motion of me walking out of the Bison curtains. Then a few shots of me falling over! I made sure that I over did it with the comedy side so that it was obvious it was a jokey thing rather than serious as it couldn't be half serious and half funny as I think this wouldn't look right. For one of the interviews I asked about the fighting aspect of the game as this allowed me to put archive footage of fighting over the interview. This made it a little bit more light hearted as the cut aways were interesting as the subject of fighting isn't too in depth and I think is interesting to the viewer. The only thing that I was not happy with was the amount of time I had on the ice. I would have liked longer and to got more shots of me doing different things on the ice but we simply did not have time. Furthermore I tried to get some shots of the camera being sprayed by skates but it didn't work and again we didn't have time to film it because we could only be on the ice for 15 minutes.
