A story recommendation from Julie

A story recommendation from Julie:

Hi Michael,

Below is a link to an example of what I consider a well told story.

Why did I like it?

The “making a difference” feel good stories at the end of the broadcast are a welcome change from economic doom and gloom.

It inspired me seeing those kids learn the classic ballroom dances.

It presented a taste of civility in an inner city chicago school.

Loved seeing the diversity of students dancing with each other

And of course: they were all so darn cute in their formal attire!

    I would also add that it’s a good exam­ple of how you can pan and zoom in cam­era when appro­pri­ate. Generally bet­ter not to, but they use pan­ning to enhance the shot. Also a good blend of wide, mid and close shots.

    To add to Kelly...I appre­ci­ated the var­i­ous shot angels (straight on, from above etc.)
