  • 4/24 2:12 pm - This definitely has some potential, and the idea is very cool. Some of your lighting and close-up shots work really well and show a real understanding of video production fundamentals. The biggest critique is that the story is a bit confusing and the action and shots happen at such a clip/pace that it's hard to tell who the main character is, who we're rooting for, and what they're dealing with. Slow down and ensure that a world has been built up for the audience before introducing drama and a problem. As for your footage, try getting straight-on "talking heads" when filming dialogue so the audience can clearly hear and see who is talking and what they are saying. As for your lighting, ensure that a person's face is well lit when we want to see and hear them, and shadows can then be used as an effect or to create a different impact. Overall, nice attempt, keep up the great work!
