• 4/23 9:35 am - This was beautifully shot and I was impressed by your use of the blood make up in the zombie scene. However, this PSA seemed to end abruptly. You presented clear statistics and a narrative, but no call to action at the end for what you wanted your audience to do with their doors. The animation on the bulletin board was also well done and a creative way to present your stats instead of simple text. For your next cut, in addition to providing an ending call to action, I would also incorporate the natural audio sound of a door closing. With closing doors being the theme of this PSA, I wanted to hear that happen as well as see it!
• 3/7 9:23 pm - Original storyline. Good audio. Well edited together. Video just ends. I feel there was more, but you didn't export out the entire video. The first half dragged out a bit. You could have cut that down so you have an ending. So, what about the door? You said it could save us, but how?
