- 3/27 12:59 pm - Works well - Good shot variety. Interesting change of story structure. Fun idea to include "what if" scenarios. Good pacing in the editing. Pretty good performances from the talent. Needs work - Somewhat interesting premise with the kids trying to see what's in the folder, but it wasn't strong enough to carry the film. Also, the ending was entirely disappointing because of that not being resolved.
- 2/28 11:54 am - This was a good effort, but I didn't quite get the story. Some technical improvements could make it better. Too much head room 1:35ish - 1:50 Audio was too low around 2:25ish-2:55. and again at 3:57- 4:20ish Some of the edits were too tight, slightly "upcut".
- 2/21 1:15 pm - Camera: Camera work was proficient. Lighting: Lighting was sufficient. Sound: Sound mix was a bit inconsistent. Editing: you had a flash frame (frame of black) at 1:56. Story: mockumentaries can be awesome, but this one felt like more of an inside joke. Mr. T didn’t seem believable or realistic, because the person playing Mr. T is a kid. It would be one thing if you had used gray hair spray and make up to make him look older, but the kid just looked like a kid.
