locked to the framing of the video camera. With still images, the eye roams. It stops and moves and stops and moves. Frozen gestures and expressions kick off a cognitive process – thinking – that moving images simply never do. Something similar is true of good audio. The best audio blends reportage (‘being me, being here’) with the kind of aural cues that make audiences think and wander off down their own pathways while still engaging with the sound. Put the two together – great audio documentary and great still images – and you have something that is potentially MORE than great storytelling. Benjamin Charleston Friday, September 27, 13
