VIDEO - March 3, 2010 special school board meeting to elect first ESC board

I experimented with a live cam this evening. The sound was not adequate so as a result, I ended up editing the b-cam material together. The b-cam is for close-ups and does a lot of moving around. Normally that movement is edited out, but for the sake of audio track continuity I left it in this edit.. Sometimes the cam is left on people who aren’t speaking, but the choice of people it’s left on is random… it just means I was tending to something else for that time period.
