1. I thought the way they shot the story was good. when they interviewed someone they always used rule of thirds. and they had a nice mix of action shots to go with the interviews so, it wasn't boring that way. one thing that i didn't like was the background that they used when they interviewed the girl it wasn't a good background, but when they interviewed the dad it was a nice background.
2. the story was inspirational how she can do all those things with only having one arm. it really makes you think about your own life and how petty some of our excuses are. when she is going out and starting on the volleyball team with only one arm, and she dosnt make an excuse for when she messes up.
A-roll; interviews, voice overs, and natural sound

story on David Haeg
Connor Mills
Hour 1
4/12/2013
Focus: how David Haeg is making a difference.
In a world filled with hate, and
wrong doings it is great to know that there are people out there that are
trying to combat that, and trying to make the world a safer place for us all.
Take David Haeg for example. David is shining light in this often dim world,
and I say this because of his work as a police explorer. Now for those of you
that don’t know what a police explorer is it is pretty much a police stations
subdivision, and the whole goal of the explorers is to train teens to become
future law enforcement officials.
Every
year the police explorers hold an annual competition between all the different
explorer divisions. Last year the competition was held in Denver, and while
they were in Denver the batman premiere shooting happened. Now david’s
subdivision took this shooting to heart and decided to raise money for the victims.
He and his fellow explores did so by standing on a street corner for hours upon
hours collecting money from people who passed by. They ended up raising fifty
eight hundred dollars for the victims, and they were the first people in the
nation to donate to the victims.
