Amazing job- great variety of interviews- very well structured script – excellent job on your narration. Audio sounds good – b-roll is relevant
to your narration. C-span clip weaved in perfectly. Very informative and well researched – just a great job!! Super impressive work –
especially considering all the challenges this year.
