We felt like the entries in the category were solid overall. There was a lot of good storytelling, but 2 stories stood above the rest. “The Envelope” was a very well-done piece. We thought the photographer did a great job chronicling a non-visual, but interesting story. There was good story structure, especially considering it was a nat package. Also, a nice job capturing emotion and natural moments at the end. But, we all felt “A Sentimental Journey” was clearly the best story we saw. It was simply beautiful.
It was carefully crafted and sequenced...you could tell a lot of thought went into each shot. The sound was clean and crisp and consistent throughout. The shot variety was great and there was a clear beginning, middle and end.
