- 4/25 8:32 am - Very different and nicely done. Has a strong improv feel to it and has a couple of humorous moments. It is visually excellent and the editing is terrific. Hosts are engaging although placement behind a bunch of computers is a little strange. Overall I enjoyed it!
- 4/24 11:43 am - Solid edit, seamless with good pace and flow. Good audio levels. Solid composition on the shots. Creative script.
- 3/11 10:45 am - Positives- creative concept for skits. Camera, audio, and editing enhanced the narrative of these comedy sketches. Talent was professional and brought the script or idea to life. Improvements - the computers in the call center were the main visual as opposed to the talent. Could have gotten a tighter shot or choose a different location to visually show the talent in these scenes as opposed to the computers.
Judge 1
Positives: This piece looked beautiful: camera shots, lighting, editing, everything was really good looking. Talent was very comfortable with the roles and seemed very natural.
Improvements: I didn't really get the humor here. The topic was borderline insensitive. Not sure when this was created. With recent work place shootings and school shootings, the caller's situation wasn't a laughing matter. There are a million made up things the caller could have said. The music in the yoga was very loud compared to the rest of the piece
Judge 2
Positives: I applaud them for their attempt at comedy, though I'm not sure I get it. But I don't always get Saturday Night Live either.
Improvements: I have nothing to add here.
