Does a stylized cinematic look have a place in solovj'ism?
Cliff Etzel
journalist techniques in a video produced by a shooter who has no
journalism experience. Yet, he equates his montage as journalism.
I had posted a well thought out and civil comment that expressed many
concerns, but it seems Dan Chung, the owner of the blog has chosen to
censor my comments - probably due to the fact that I raised serious
issues around the ethics of the video piece.
Instead, I will post the link to Ron Dawson's blog that still shows
the video and my comments for the time being - they can be read at

It's a shame Dan chose to censor what were very valid points I had
raised regarding this - but since I don't shoot with a Hybrid DLSR for
video, I'm getting the sense of exclusion due to not towing the Hybrid
DSLR Video party line.
Interesting divisions in these times indeed.

"cinematic vision" to what is essentially a serious journalism topic?
IS there a place for this as we move headlong into the 21st century of
the new paradigm of solo video journalism? IS this the new form of
documentary vision we will be seeing more of as solovj's express some
form of personal vision/creativity?
