Good/Bad Multimedia Projects Pre-Video Assignment, Easthom

https://www.washingtonpost.com/video/national/high-school-journalists-investigated-a-new-principals-credentials-heres-what-happened-next/2017/04/05/2e3bd994-1a4d-11e7-8598-9a99da559f9e_video.html Both of the top two are good examples; I really enjoy the second example which is about gold medal Olympian Matt Centrowitz, an alum of my high school and my old track team. My good opinion of the video may be biased by my connection to the subject matter, however, the mix of visuals, music, documentarian interviews and b-roll also makes this an extremely attractive multimedia project. Here is a bad example: http://www.capitalgazette.com/sports/high_school_sports/92982517-132.html The videographer could have talked to more players on Southern's team as well as the coaches to overlay new perspectives. The competing Annapolis team should have also been interviewed. Structurally, adding music as well as timing and spacing of sample audio could have been better.
