  • 4/29 1:30 pm - Nice variety of shots and great narration over the B-Roll. Really great transitions and awesome pace. Really nice voice as well that helps tell the story. Great work overall!
  • 4/27 11:44 am - Successful - Great cinematography and style. Nice editing. Good music. Good script. Technically pretty solid. Needs Work - This is not quite a comedy, more like an advice video or commercial for Fiverr. You might consider re-editing this into a different format like that. Probably a little too long on run time.
  • 2/22 1:35 pm - Good idea for a comedy. Good use of the dining room table discussion to tie everything together. Nice job with the audio, video and pacing. This is very well done. Great voiceover and use of transitions. One suggestion would be slow down just a little but the fast pace does add to the interest. This is one of the best overall entries.
Judge 1

Positives: This video actually functions as a great ad for Fiverrr. Narrative dialogue works nicely. Solid camera work and editorial.

Improvements: Consider the audience for your videos and craft the story accordingly. Was this ad ad for Fiverr? Your personal documentary? Or guidance for another person looking for job ideas? The communication here was a bit muddled.

Positives: This was really fantastic, in every way. You told the story really well with the VO, but you really nailed it with the visual storytelling as well. Fantastic editing, lots of clever, interesting shots. The drone shot of the golf course looked amazing. The doors slamming in your face. All of it was great. My first job was also caddying, and I similarly knew nothing about golf. It was awful.

Improvements: I would like give you a couple pieces of constructive criticism, but this is very solid all around and I can't come up with anything. You really killed it. Excellent work!

Positives: Really nice transitions in the edits and the audio, the story comes through well because it's apparent that it's true...well done overall

Improvements: Some of the cuts from narration to the main actor seated at a desk sounded jumpy because the audio was lower, yet it did transition well so it wasn't too much of an issue
