It usually starts with a statement of the general area of concern and ends with a statement of the problem, issue or subject addressed in your final project in specific terms.

Project Execution: This section identifies and explains why specific media elements (text, audio, infographics, photographs, video, etc) were used to tell specific parts of the story (interview, action footage, b-roll, natural sound). This media selection should be based on the qualities of the medium and the story segment presented.
