- 4/25 1:21 pm - Nice parody of Ghost Hunters. The script was very wordy. Perhaps some of this was improved? Even so, I thought the narrative bogged down in places. The production value was inconsistent. On the positive, the shots had enough lighting to consistently capture proper exposure. On the negative, the lighting was often too intense and lacked shadows and moodiness commonly associated with horror movies (even if they are parodies). The actor's faces were always washed out due to the lighting leading to a very flat look. Work on using less lights or moving the lights so more realistic shadows happen on your actor's faces. The shots had a lot of soft focus problems Stop down your aperture so you can capture both of your character's faces clearly. The editing had some shots that weren't really necessary and could have been cut out to improve the pacing. Overall, the piece had some nice moments but it was too inconsistent in terms of production quality.

- 4/12 11:48 am - Ghost hunter-type parody with some elements and moments of slapstick comedy. Some one-liners written in that get a laugh here and there. I like the cutting back between coverage shot and cutaways.. Audio needs some work, lots of room echo from on-cam mic possibly? Actors do a good job and deliver lines well, clever ending.
