My project on the state swim meet. Only partially finished, not fully edited down, and there is no audio put to it yet. You may want to mute your speakers in order to avoid the white noise background. The story is located here: State Swim Story A total of five photos ran in the paper: an action as a refer and then four on one page snuggled in there with an ad. I fairly displeased with the design and the overall publication outcomes of the project, however, hopefully, it is salvagable for my own uses.
