• 4/24 4:13 pm - Banana. Only one where I laughed out loud. Original idea. Composition, Music, Audio Levels, Costumes, Loved it!!
• 4/10 10:52 am - This was a very interesting and clever story idea. The story arch was great and kept me interested the whole time. “Animating” the bananas in such a nice and simple way was great! Kudos to the banana puns throughout, that and your dialogue in general was a lot of fun to listen to. Moving forward, I suggest finding ways to build some of the drama in your dialogue scenes; over the shoulder, close-ups of eyes, response shots of hands, bananas, etc, and match that to the music. The tone of each scene, from the multiple dates, to the awkward family scenes, to the end scene with the girl, all can be reflected through the various shots you chose, the music you add, and the pace of your cuts. Keep working! You have a great start here!
