VJ-06. Human Interest Feature
These stories are similar to a personality profile, but they’re focused on groups, issues, events or experiences rather than an individual person. They may appeal to the emotions of the viewer with inspiration, motivation, pathos or humor. They may emphasize a new element or fresh angle. The stories should capture the viewer’s attention and arouse curiosity. These stories may include interviews, sound bites, voice-overs, dramatizations, graphics, b-roll and stand-ups. Lower thirds are important for identification. Sports-related feature stories must be submitted into the Sports Feature Story category. Submit a URL to the entry.
