Transitions do not assist in communicating the main idea. There are many unnatural breaks and/or early cuts. Digital effects are overdone and distract from the content.
Tape is edited throughout with only quality shots remaining. A variety of transitions are used. Good pacing and timing.

Images are proper size and resolution. Multimedia elements are appropriate and enhance the presentation.
