Judges Comments
A light category, we wanted to see a few more in-depth stories. First place stood out with a variety of different pictures, tight editing and nice order of the story. Second place was nice, but needed a tighter edit. Third place was a good start, but we wanted to see a few more pictures and better sequencing. We liked the opening picture.
