So people moan on here about stodgy direction on the news and when they try something different they should be sacked. Are you from the Daily Mail?
No, I'm a Times and Guardian reader, myself. I think you'll find there is a difference between a good shot and a bad shot. MY OPINION being that some of the shots that were used earlier this week weren't best suited to the studio, to Kate or to the style of programming. I am by all means an advocate of new shots in the news and to be more inventive, less formulaic, but my taste for those shots wasn't very warming. You'll find that I was rather tongue-and-cheek with my last comment in the quoted post above, also.
Some really experimental, original shots on the News at Six tonight. However, I can't say I liked any of these non-standard shots. The close-ups with such a perspective that made Kate look like a giant, and another which showed the inside of the desk. The director shouldn't be on the Six again!
