Nut Graf
A Nut Graf is the second paragraph or part to the story line. The first paragraph or intro talks about the main points of the story and gives the reader a good sense of what the story is going to be about and background information about the story. The nut graf is a summary of what happened in the situation and why the story is so important. It is not very long, maybe 2 paragraphs. It gives the reader a sense of what happened while the first paragraph explains wha the situation is.
A nut Graf is important because it is what grabs the reader and makes them want to read more to find out about the story. It has facts and important resources of where you got your information but the most important thing is to not give the ending of the story away. The point is to draw the reader in not make them stop by spoiling the ending. Another thing the nut graf does is answer any questions the reader might have while reading the story to make sure they fully understand what is going on.

Video Analysis
PART ONE
Video #1 A. Sam Adams
B. Biking
C. Didn't like where some of the objects where placed in photos, wish there was more action in some, bad lighting, photos don't look realistic
D. Liked Shadow and jay walker in 2 photos
E. The photos were ok, some of the photos didn't do anything for me and didn't grab my attention. The subject in some of the photos were not clear to me.
Video #2
A. Justin Mott
B. Poverty
C. Wished the emotion in some could have been more grabbing, some photos had bad intentional blur, some photos were confusing and didn't know what they were looking at.
D. Some photos had really good emotion, like how the photographer was trying new things with his photos, good composition, mood and light
E. I liked this photographer because he could really capture and tell the story of poverty in other countries and doesn't shoot the ordinary things in life.
Video #3
A. Melissa Golden
B. Old People & Make Up Day
C. Out of focus, missed important parts of photos, too much stuff in the background, distracting power lines in photos
D. Good portrait photo, captures full story in photo
E. I did not like the photographer because it took them a very long time to actually present and show their theme and story. Many photos were boring and never got any of my attention from them.
Video #4
A. Carlos Delgado
B. Hardships and Hard Times
C. Cluttered background, exposure of colors are too bright, can't see faces
D.
E. Many photos were very cluttered with items in the background or foreground. Levels of composition in colored photos were too bright. Many items in photo seemed unrealistic.
2A. Nice color composition, photographer seems to be doing activities along with the people in the photos. very creative
2B. I liked how the photographer really got into the action and wasn't afraid to get dirty. He made the viewers feel like they are in that moment and experiencing that time in the past.
3A. The looked at the story line and if the photographer followed their story or if the story was easily noticeable. They also looked to see if the portfolio was put together nicely and flows with the story. Along with that they made sure no photos were fillers to make the portfolio seem really long.
PART TWO
2. I did not agree with the women being attacked by the goose. The photo didn't make me feel anything and didn't make me want to look at it many different times. The sumo wrestler should have been first because there was line sin the photo from the escalator and also had emotion from other people in the photo. And it made me want to know more about the story and makes me have a lot of questions about the situation.
