In my most honest opinion i thought this story was plain and boring. I think this is mostly based on my interest in the focus statement, but the story never caught my attention. when I watched the story again i decided to watch with out the sound. when i did this i noticed a sign or wide shot of a building before introducing a new interviewer. i liked this because it set the scene and gave you an idea of who was speaking. This also made for some creative shots. for instance the very first shot of the story is a low shot of the Well Fargo sign, then a speaker/soundbite started and you could assume he was from Wells Fargo.
