• 4/6 3:51 pm - Great music for this promo. Good use of effects - was not overdone - fit with the music. The shots of the entire team had an orange tint to it - color balance it so it matches the coloring of the other shots. Nice use of the audio from previous games as well as video.
• 2/28 11:26 am - Nice intro shots and use of the shaky cam effect on the fan footage. Good game film. Other than the footage of the team being yellow/orange the overall project is very strong. Nice job.

Judge 1

Positives: Editing - Pace sells the tone. The consistency of cuts, movement, and music do the entirety of the job it they need to do, as far as feel goes. Editing - you could say the post effects are heavy-handed, but sticking with the ragged, jumpy effects for the whole piece turn it into 'style'. The style works for the piece, capturing a tone for this sort of piece that was popular some time ago. Lighting - Consistent. Could be more side on the hero shot's but that's a matter of style and preference. Well lit and exposed.

Improvements: Story - Feel free to get another Hero take on Josh Berry in which he doesn't almost lose the ball. Lighting - Could afford to slow the lights down a bit on the hero shots of a couple of the white guys. Hot spots on the face.
