Judge 1

Positives: So I Googled "Creative Services-animated comedy" and found out that the series is produced by two high school students. The animation is really good. (I hope to see more from this series.) Although quite short, I think this is effective to some degree. I love the dinosaur.

Improvements: As a music video, this needs much more. It's really too short to be a complete music video. I'd like to see more of the characters in different environments--locations, etc.

Judge 2

Positives: Funny to display the characters in the men's bathroom. Smooth transitioning when character slides across floor on a rolling chair. Effects properly done with compilation of characters moving in next cut. Fit the concept of the Harlem Shake videos.

Improvements: Would like to see a key at the beginning and end to give credit. May be cool to add strobe lighting effects during second cut. Would've been nice to see you develop animated characters of your own to make it more creative - that way you could say all of the images used were original.

Judge 3

Positives: Very funny - good location idea. Creative animation.

Improvements: A title would enhance the video and make it look more professional. I'm not familiar with the characters, but noticed the man with the shotgun doesn't move. Fade to black would be better than the harsh cut.
