Haq Pre-Video Assignment

Good video: The video below is a fantastically edited New York Times video about how Hollywood can assist residents in the operating room. It has very clear, carefully chosen audio and multiple angles so that the progression of the surgery is natural and not at all choppy. The interviews are very well-integrated as well. The lighting is clear and the background audio is at the perfect volume, so the whole process is very dramatic. The camera switches to different, unique angles with ease so it doesn't feel rushed but it also doesn't feel too slow. Overall, very well made and told the story nicely. Bad video: The video below isn't terrible, but the angles stay the same for minutes at a time and there's absolutely no variety so it gets very stagnant and boring to watch. It would be a lot more visually pleasing if we could see different shots of the eggs being made instead of the same shot for several minutes of him doing everything at once.
