Mr. Burnett notes:
 * Kudos to Kole and Zach !
 * I added //Team:, Title:, Headline:// and a //line-break// to denote and separate each team
 * Title: what is the title of your project besides Jamestown
 * Headline: Check out headlines from newspapers and your favorite magazines, what does a headline to for a written piece? Is it used to catch your attention, tell the listener/reader what it may be about?
 * Deconstruct raw audio footage:
 * **Purpose and POV**: Is the purpose of the story established early and maintains a clear focus throughout story? Who's Point Of View is at play?
 * **Awareness of Audience**: Who is the target audience, who are your listeners? Are the vocabulary, voice, sound fx used in the story help your audience connect to the story?
 * **Quantity**: Is the story told with the right amount of detail information throughout. It doesn't seem to short, leaving a lot of important information out? It doesn't seem too long, where the listener looses interest?
 * **Voice - Conversation style**: Do the words sound natural, like the performer is speaking to me? Are they being real?
 * **Voice - Pacing**: Is the rhythm and voice inflection fit the story being told? Monotone is not good. The listener needs to "feel it" in your voice.
 * **Sound effects (FX)**: Are the sound effects selected appropriate? To they help fill space, paint a picture of where the story is placed? Sometimes sound fx can help reduce the need for words, the sounds says it all for certain things.
 * **Soundtrack (Music)** - Music is not required but if music is used in parts, does the music add a rich emotional element or tone to your story?
 * **Voiceover Recording Quality**: Distracting background noises are kept to a minimum. The microphone is not too close where it peaks out (red zone). Handling of mic sounds is not heard.
 * **Grammar**: Grammar and usage are correct and contribute to telling the story.
