  • 4/27 8:48 am - Terrific set and very conversational. Hosts clearly know Star Wars and are very comfortable with each other. Would recommend more cutaways to the hosts and not just the figures but great tempo and very engaging. Well done!
  • 4/26 1:41 pm - Great show idea overall. The anchors were knowledgeable and enjoyable to watch, and brought some great energy while also not getting too in the weeds on the topic. Great job anchors! Your title sequence was fantastic and your set design fit the show perfectly for what you had available. Moving forward, I would work on switching camera angles a bit more to hit the person talking as well as pull in a bit more on the subject (action figures, etc.). Overall, nice work!
  • 4/16 1:20 pm - The blue light reflection on the right side was a bit distracting because of (possibly) someone walking in front of it that would at times block the blue light, other times we’d see it. Would like to have seen a little more of the figurines on the table in front sooner than we did actually see them.
Judge 1

Positives: Awesome title card animation. Very authentic banter, hosts mesh well together and drawn in the viewer.

Improvements: Lighting was too dark. More context was needed, explain what black series is

Judge 2

Positives: Great animation at the beginning. Chemistry between the hosts was good.

Improvements: Lighting was a little dark. It's good to set a mood, but still need to see people.

Judge 3

Positives: Super cool animation at the beginning! Great chemistry between hosts, the viewer feels like they're hanging out with a group of friends talking about something they all love. I really appreciate your dedication and passion for the topic, and trust me when I tell you there is an audience out there for everything! I like the shot variance here, cutting between the 3-shot, 1-shot and the closeup on the figures. Keep up the great work!

Improvements: I know the lighting is strategic and creative, but I would have liked to see the hosts a little better. The shot of the figures on the table works, but it would have been cool to shoot some b-roll of each individual figure and cut to that when each one is being referenced.
