Great Story

This piece is interesting and flows nicely. It takes on a newsy tone- compact and informative. I like David's voicing which is clear and soothing. The sound bites pertain to the topic and the background noise pulls the listener into the story. Nice work.

The piece was well done with getting some backdrop sounds of the workers. The organization well was put and on topic, but i suggest that more could have been said to support the topic. I would have also like some set tone as well. I loved the piece over and well well put together. Nice work.

Compact

Green Jobs for Greenhorns gets right down to the point. There is no filler; every second of the piece is spent building up the story. However there was still more that could have been said. The first three quarters of the piece outlines how younger workers could have an advantage due to the green revolution. Then near the end, a counter argument is made, but isn't supported. I think it would be nice to hear a little more about how all workers could benefit.
Overall it's a solid piece with good narration and interviews, and I enjoyed hearing it. Good job, David.
