It works well as a parody because it copies the original so well--nicely done in that respect. There are some laughs here too because of the writing and the timing of the piece. Hats off to the teacher in the interview for "getting it" and the lead does a good job with his delivery throughout the piece! I don't think that anything could have been done to improve the piece, it only leaves me wondering are there more episodes! Good job!
  • 4/19 9:29 pm - Great job with this parody. It was extremely well written and performed. The production value was good in terms of shots and lighting. Production audio was captured well and mixed well. I don't have much to say in terms of improvement here. It was extremely well done. That being said, this isn't a comedic narrative in the traditional sense and was probably better suited for the TV Show category. The production value, good as it was, was not very dynamic or challenging. It's not a dig on the work, I simply question this submission's placement into the comedic narrative category. I did like it and it was very well done.
