  • 4/17 8:26 am - Story - Creative and interesting topic. Production Value -From the intro to the set design the level of professionalism of this podcast is amazing. Talent - The knowledge of the content and the way everyone plays off what each other says is engaging and creative.
  • 4/4 8:49 am - Great conversation with clearly knowledgeable hosts. The set looked amazing and the detail put into it was fantastic. Cut really well throughout although think it would have benefitted by starting with a wide shot of the set. Audio is great, conversation is terrific, well done!
  • 3/5 10:34 am - I noticed that your camera is not always facing the host/person talking- I noticed this at 2:12 specifically. I really thought your studio was well setup, and stayed very loyal to the theme! The conversations were also very organic-- I did not see the presence of ant scripts, but each host was very well prepared!
Judge 1

Positives: -Set is visually appealing with beautiful lighting and decor -Solid banter between hosts

Improvements: -Because it's a niche subject, not everyone can follow the conversation. Having visuals to reference for each show would be helpful. Maybe a quick clip of the trailer or a promotional photo.

Judge 2

Positives: Awesome title animation, set, sound quality and video quality. Also love the Christmas decorations! All four hosts seem confident and have a great dialogue with one another. With so many hosts, it can sometimes create a situation where you are talking over each other-- but that rarely happened with this crew.

Improvements: While the dark set might make some people feel like they are in outer space, it is just a little too dark and casts shadows on the hosts.

Judge 3

Positives: 1. Everyone had something to add and something interesting to say. 2. There were a number of camera angles used and reaction shots were conveyed well.

Improvements: 1. The cold open was nice, but we were never introduced to the hosts. Even some lower thirds would be helpful. 2. The contrast was a bit too high, and it made it hard to see the hosts faces.
