Girl Sneezes 12,000 times a day

The video starts off with the camera looking leveled with the grass and looking up at the girl. After she throws the ball to her dog there's a close up of her petting the dog. There's also up closeup head shots of the little girl and her mother talking to the camera when answering the questions of the interviewer. Then there are several jump cuts to different shots of her sneezing. The girl is seen jogging up steps, outside on the lawn again and in her kitchen.

The camera man/woman is constantly alternating between medium and closeup shots. He or she also alternates the angles of the shots so the viewer gets different perspectives.

Slideshow story

For my slideshow story I will be focusing on a sales associate at South Moon Under, a retail clothing store at the Kenilworth Shopping Mall. This store has very high end, expensive clothing, but you also get your money's worth of service. The sales associates are basically trained to be a customer's personal shopper. Although the customer may pick out a few items to try on, the sales associate that is helping them will then pick out other outfits for the customer to try on. This sales associate is more hands on than others in other retail stores like the mall.
