Entry Description

A complex story about a man who's life is ruined by a cheating wife. There band shots with intense lightning and no added effects to go with the story.

Judge 1

Positives: Good close ups Music follows story

Improvements: Some shots grainy although it might have been an effect. Subject matter a little too gory and mature?

Judge 2

Positives: Good job on articulating your non-narrative story. The character development, and plot were engaging. I was extremely impressed with your music, the band and the song lyrics were impactful.

Improvements: Camera shots were repetitive, but done well and worked with the music and story. Maybe a shot of the band together could have added some diversity, but overall well done.

Judge 3

Positives: Really liked the overall pace of the edit with the quick cuts, especially during the mirror scene between the wife and the band! Good story, well executed.

Improvements: The fight felt a little lacking, but then again those are kinda hard to pull off right. A bit more variety with the band shots. I liked the vocal shot, but with only 1 drum shot and 2 bass shots, it began to become a bit of a distracter from the story.
