You have another good character here Moonunit and a lot of potential but you have many of the same issues as you did with the last coach profile. Let the story breathe, it's wall to wall soundbites of Houston Frank. Let's hear some nat sound of him with the runners, let's hear him with his wife and daughter and let's hear from the wife too. The open to the video works well; you need to ID Houston the first time we see him because as the viewer I'm thinking who is this guy. You also have some major issues with the shooting and shots that are all blown out because of the sky. Even on a grey day like this was the sky will give you exposure issues so try to frame as much of it out as possible. Also when you're filming let your subjects leave frame rather than following them. Leaving frame gives you a natural edit point and forces the story forwards by making the viewer think "where did they go".

I agree, this is great and very professional. Beyond the level that I could be of assistants. The opening shots and introduction of your subject, the narration, the arc of story, the introdution of the character and his family was a great way to lead in to a heart felt and passionate ending. Thanks for posting. Helpful Not Helpful
