1st Place
Ted Nelson
Judges Comments
- This was an overall great piece. Good job all the way around.
- I think the close shot should have been the chair with a line to that. Other than that the story was very well done. Nice editing, pacing and shooting.
- Loved the gopro use throughout, really liked the shooting. Really nice job.
2nd Place
Stephen Clapper
Judges Comments
- Great shooitng and good pacing. Good opening shot.
- Really liked the opening shot and the pacing throughout the piece. Thought it was kind of jaring jumping from inside to outside, but still a solid job.
- The open standup and following shot, make it different. Too similar with the foreground. I like the church angle to the story, but it seemed to go inside and outside too much. was hoping for a stronger close. good effort.

Judges Comments
- I would like to have heard from the city. holding someone accountable. too one dimensional. i could tell you were running out of video toward the end. you did a great job on your end, but you have to get the other side to tell a complete story or show the viewer you and your reporter made an effort.
- Very nice job in a tough situation with no video. Really liked the sequences and nats, seemed liked you shot it everyway you could.
