DIMANCHE GRAS

CNMG thanks for giving us live pictures of the Dimanche Gras show, but your director and producer seemed not to have been working in tandem.
During Sekon Alves' performance, there was one point when his back up dancers were performing, but the director chose instead to show us the band for a very long time. Why?

Then during Leslie Ann Ellis' performance, she was pointing out several icons of Trinidad and Tobago and her performers all sat behind her. When she spoke about each one individually and they stood up, instead of calling for the cameramen on the left or the right of the stage to pick them up, all we saw was Leslie Ann standing at the front of the stage. Do you know when we finally saw them? When they were walking off the stage, with their backs to the camera.

There was also some drama to stage left at the start of Cro Cro's performance, but the director kept us on a wide shot of the stage for the entire time, so whatever was taking place was lost on the tv audience. We only got a close up shot when Cro Cro took to the stage more than a minute later.
