In class on Friday we we're able to explore the winning video by, Lina Sattarin. It was about sophomore, Abby Rist, and her love for golf. It started with a strong opening shot and voice over. She used the rule of thirds very well and made sure her shots were visually appealing. Lina also made sure her editing was precise so there would be no jump cut and that her video would flow. At the end of her video she had strong voice over with a memorable clip of Abby hitting the golf ball with the Nat noise in the background. Overall her video was very well put together and she did a very good job of collecting Abby's love of the sport. Below I have written a list of tips that I collected from the Honorable Mentions in my class:
How to get the appropriate out come to your feature story:
1. Have a strong beginning shot and voice over
2. Used the 6 shot system (using a mix gives it more variety and makes it more visually appealing)
3. Make sure you have Nat noises (Nat: Natural noise)
4. Have a good mix of B role and pieces from your interview. Note: You can use your subjects voice as a voice over under B role
5. Make sure you don't have any jump cuts try to edit your video to the best of your ability.
6. Don't forget to have voice overs of yourself speaking about the topic throughout the video.
7. Make sure you don't say I, We, or your name in the feature story.
8. Have a strong ending with an impactful saying from the person your interviewing or say something to sum it up at the end of your video.
