Dramatic Narrative

Entry Description

The message of this dramatic piece is to recognize that even in those moments where you might wish it would end, there is always peace and harmony, sometimes we just need to look a little bit harder for it. Life might be tough, but it is meant to be lived and enjoyed.

Judge 1

Positives: music. some good camera shots.

Improvements: text or dialogue might help better convey storyline.

Judge 2

Positives: Important message that life is tough but worth living. Good camerawork and use of music to enhance mood of the piece.

Improvements: Pretty frightening seeing her lying on the tracks. Hope you used every precaution to prevent a tragedy in the taping of the piece. Be careful out there. The synopsis told me major theme but not sure I would have understood it totally without the tipoff in the summary.

Judge 3

Positives: unique story told without words Visual pursuit of the "alter ego"

Improvements: stronger music choice to accent the concept... a little more "punch" at the end to let the audience realize the change in life situation..
