The organization of the leads for the broadcasting video has almost the same lead as the print but the print includes more information and facts at the end of it.

The print contains more information and facts. They both hit the main points of the story but the video gives the fast what you need to know points. The article goes more in depth of what they did and what they plan on using this for. The story talks more on what the navy wants to use it for. I think they were about the same length. The article may have been a little longer.

The video had sources listed at the end of if. The article quotes from Dr. Gemmell throughout it.

The person who narrated the video was also the person who wrote the article. The video also listed people who did the photos and video.

I found the video more interesting because while the person was talking I got to watch the movement of the jellyfish. That also helped when they were explaining how they move and what movements save energy. However, I found it interesting to read what the navy wanted to do with the research.

Watch and read it here.
