News Story Reflection






"Patriots stunned by Chiefs in season opener, 42-27" By: Meghan Ottolini 

In this video I liked the reporter's lead into the story. I thought she did a good job at drawing me into the story. I also liked how the lower thirds looked in the video. I enjoyed the clips of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick speaking about the loss and how they flowed into the story.

There were a couple of things that I would have done differently in this video. I thought she should use b-roll that had movement. She mainly used pictures and I slowly became disinterested in the video. I also believe that she could have been more energetic with her reporting. She had a good voice overall but I thought maybe she could have sounded more excited.

In my future videos I will likely implement a strong lead to grab the reader/viewer's attention. I think that I have learned that while doing a standup I should sound excited and not have a boring voice. I also will try to avoid using a bunch of pictures in my videos so I can prevent the viewers from becoming disinterested in my videos.
