Below are three examples of good short video stories, in my opinion. It was rather difficult to narrow the field, given the 2 minute rule (plus or minus a second or two), but I think these hit the mark.
http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7366848n – CBS Evening News video the near-miss that was the rapture. It was good because it used the 5-shot rule in terms of technical shooting in traditional interview format, along with computer-generated graphics, and file footage to tell a complete story, along with a number of interviews.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-13487681 – BBC new clip of Libyan freedom fighters in a training camp that’s ill-prepared to fight. Interesting and good because it also uses the 5-shot rule fairly well, and it has one constant narration.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-13507026 - BBC news clip of amusing hoax. I think it’s good because of the interesting cinematography. It does NOT utilize the traditional 5-shot rule, but I liked the imagery anyway, and it was appropriate for this almost farcical story.
