Features, bordering on mini-docs can be a different prospect relying more on the arc of film making where music maters. Video journalism follows the same line of enquiry, however there are other rules it can break that TV wouldn't. Motion graphics, a branch in itself which you quite rightly mention above, could be one of them. Though if you've been watching Brit Network news interpret the financial meltdown, most of its being done in motion graphics or vertical film making. Visual compositional and mis en scene is most certainly one of the areas video journalism could use to distinguish itself from the status quo of news making. Peter Ralph at shootingbynumbers makes some interesting observations in this area.
