Corky Scholl. TV story or a work of art?

Scholl’s hailstorm coverage came out so impressive that for me it set a new standard for visual media. With not a word from the reporter, a baffling, moving and amusing drama unfolds in this TV story. A multitude of voices, telling images, clean cuts. More than one story could be told in this piece, but it stays simple and compelling all the way through.

Scholl’s work is especially interesting when contrasted to radio stories. Radio is a medium of words. Pieces like Michigan Radio’s Artpod create mental images through the reporter’s voicing and soundbites. Pieces like Scholl’s create storytelling through images. Scholl’s is a story that's, literally, untold, but also one that speaks for itself.
