One Comment
I had to postpone watching the recorded Hustings, and did so yesterday evening (ie Tuesday 8th). May I gently and tentatively offer a minor criticism of the set-up?
The unchanging picture I got on the screen lacked visual balance. We were presented with what seemed to be a large man in a dark suit, and two women — more colourful, but rather further from the viewer’s vantage point or ‘seat’. Visually, the figure ‘nearer’ to the viewer dominated the screen.
No doubt a coin had been tossed, and all, in terms of procedure, was completely fair. But I do suggest that visually it was, literally, somewhat one-sided. May I suggest that some thought is given to that before the next such presentation. In all other respects I thought it was excellent (except that on my computer I wished i could have made it a bit louder.)
