Judge 1

Positives: Very clear, concise storytelling – well-paced and rhythmic, with impactful camera movement and sound editing. Great job!

Improvements: Dialogue recording/mixing could be improved to give the piece some extra polish. Red font treatment could be stylized in an alternate way – something more minimalist may fit the tone of the piece. The current font/color makes the film look more like "pulpy" horror.

Positives: Cool idea

Improvements: Camera sound effect going too long Why such a different video ratio?

Judge 3

Positives: Great plot. From the minute they mentioned murders and you see these two girls in dresses, you instantly want to know what happened. Also, seeing two people in the graveyard look at each other, you established a connection right there. I wanted to keep watching to see how they were involved. Are they bad guys? A suspect? The victim's friends? etc. Nice job!

Improvements: Small smalll detail but I would find a different font or one that takes up more of the screen. Try and match your acoustics directly to the movement. Fast cuts, and more of them -- adding more video can make something look more dramatic. Try filming things from multiple angles. It will take more time but definitely pay off
