What Makes A Good Feature Story?

In my sophomore video production class the teachers chose one video that they thought was the best made out of all the submissions and mine won. In my feature story I made sure to add in a variety of shots and really got creative with most of the shots I captured. I made sure to keep the six shot system active and present in the feature story. In a strong feature story you need to make sure to not repeat the same angles and clips and always remember to get tons of B-roll and keep the audio loud but not blaring. The concept itself needs to be good because it is the overall foundation of your video and you need to really know what you want to achieve from the final product of your video before you even start story boarding. The whole story needs to tie everything together by the use of strong voiceovers that capture the audiences attention when they watch.
