With a practice session the day before, we decided to not use a live photograph for the weekend paper, relying on the picture I captured from Friday. It was a relief to me to be able to concentrate on producing a video of the race which I had on our internet site by 5 p.m. that day. I think I’m starting to get more quality into my videos with practice and technical knowledge. Some of the stills we ran were taken from the video tape I shot early in the day. I switched to still images later on for higher quality.

This is off the video and ran as the dominant photograph on A1 Monday.

And this one too, from video and ran large inside the sports section.  I followed this group of kids as they put their hair up in Pippi style using copper wire. Then found them as they were on the obstacle course, following them to the finish. It helped bring continuity to the video.
