Great B roll footage and a good look behind the way te Spot works. The speaking seemed to go on a bit long, it could have been broken up into smaller chunks. otherwise good job.

At the beginning having the VO over a shot focused on someone else talking is a bit distracting. The B Roll footage was pretty good, nice shots of correlating to the VO and supporting it. The audio level on the VO seemed as if it could have been worked on a bit. All in all it worked out well and came together pretty nicely. Good job

Pros-- Very nice intro graphics, good B-roll, liked the surprise ending clip after the credits.

Cons-- A few shots made me a little dizzy (i.e. the circular planning process shot); would have been a little more varied by alternating interview scenes with different people; mic was a little off in clarity, but could hear what was being said.

Good job!

Great idea, I dont ever watch the spot.
Could have cut the informations up for some dynamic interest.
Maybe some music.
Good b-roll

Good composition and an interesting topic. Ive seen stickers pasted on the sidewalk around campus about the spot but didnt exactly know what it was. So yeah it was very informative and held some creative camera movements like the one in the beginning showing the continuous cycle of production for the spot. I liked it well done.

But yeah, I guess I can agree with you guys about the audio. But honestly I wasn't paying attention to the audio too much - I heard everything pretty clear and I wouldnt beat up yourselves too much about it.

Audio was a bit muffled. Tough break with the mic. I've had issues with those as well. I liked the b-roll that played during the VO. They went together nicely. Overall, great story. I had no idea how these shows got made.
