Winol Review

I have a feeling im going to sound incredibly mean, but here it goes;
The negative aspects of the bulletin weren't to do with the content of news itself, but more so to do with the technical aspects of it. Being quite a perfectionist (obsessive compulsive) when it comes to the fine tuning of a media production,  the most annoying thing was how unprofessional parts appeared, first being the camera work and editing. Cutting between shots within the first minute or so could be considered quite confusing and at various times there were gaps between the clips (Turn snapping on!) the only real indication of the story changing was the spoken headline and the banner. The banner itself is one of the first things I really didn't like; it seems to ruin the frame being a block of white being there in the corner and is really big.
In one of the stories the reporter was using a scrunched up piece of paper which was in the frame, looked a little messy and at other times clips in the VT's were too long, focusing on one image, or cut while they were moving which I found a little bit disorientating.

The news stories I found most interesting were the university applications declining and the zombie symposium on wanting popular culture to be taught. The sports stories seemed to also be a lot more professional than the other stories.
Previous Winol bulletins I've seen have seemed to hold more interesting stories (the big wide worlds fault not Winol's) as well as better produced on a whole.
