  • 4/27 8:38 pm - Story: Yessss, Dum Biriyani! The style and story of this demo worked well together. It was fancy but funny. The steps written were clear. The voice over brought the comedy, so I thought it was helpful to have just the clear steps written for people to see. Sound: The music and vo fit well together. The one part with the boiling water did get to my ears, but t'was the point a bit, methinks. Camera/Lighting/editing: The lighting was good, your shots were framed well and the shots you selected were good for the story you told. It was pieced together well and I thought having a QR code to scan for the recipe at the end was clever.

  • 4/20 6:31 am - Good Close-Up camera shots at the beginning of the video to catch the viewer's attention. Good animation of the onion at the beginning of the demonstration. Good high angle and Close-Up camera shots throughout the demonstration. Music selection works well with the images you recorded. Voice-overs are well done. Very well done production. Keep producing more videos.
Judge 1

Positives: Smartly written script. Good editing with veggie auto-chop. Thorough explanation and easy to follow.

Improvements: Speak a bit fast sometimes. Lighting a bit dark in places.

Judge 2

Positives: I like the opening shot and the movement of the red onion to the board. Great job with the onion slice shot. Great script with some funny lines about bullying and vegans. I really enjoyed this video and thought it was creative and shows the viewer what needs to be done for this.

Improvements: I wish you used some natural sound in this video because it would have added a nice layer to the video. The music might be a little distracting, but not too bad. Great job on this video
