This week's WINOL News was definitely the best of the semester so far, most of the problems with the previous week's bulletins had been sorted.
The first thing I noticed about the bulletin was how relaxed and at ease Gareth looked whilst presenting, he didn't stutter over his words and didn't stare straight at the autocue either.
However, the 'chat' with Rebecca wasn't so good, mainly because she was talking as if she was reading the news and not talking as if she was just chatting to Gareth normally (unless that's how she speaks?). What I would say is that she seemed to know a lot of facts and figures about unemployment and she seemed to have learned the script well.
The interview with the Councillor was good e.g. good camerawork and there was no background noise.
Most of the packages has good camerawork especially the stories early on in the bulletin. However, the camerawork in the Estonia report and the car park report wasn't so good, with 1 or 2 bits out of focus and sometimes grainy. For some reason in the car park package, there were random views of the road and there was a bit of camera shake in this story too.
The package about the University's new app was good, except for some background noise that sounded a bit like white noise.
The sports (football) news was good. Totton's 1st round FA Cup match was covered and all the goals were shown, some would argue there were too many shown. However, as it was the only match shown and the fact that Totton won 8-1, I really doesn't matter.
At the end of the news bulletin I noticed that the camera was either zoomed in further or moved further towards Gareth because he seemed to fill the screen more!
Overall, a very good bulletin!
