  • 2/19 10:14 am - This is a strong production that captures the piece being performed in a creative way. The camera cuts and angles highlight the more interesting elements of the dance, and all the tech crew's choices (red lighting, music, etc.) are brought to life through the production and direction of the performance.

Positives: Thank you for allowing me to view and judge your video. Stage productions are one of the hardest things to video record because you don't control anything - including the lighting, colors, or audio. I think you did very good work. I am a photojournalist and photograph a lot of punk and alternative concerts. I can certainly under stand the extreme difficulty of photographing a show with low red lighting. You did a great job with the lighting you had to work with.

Improvements: I might have shown the crowd in one clip

Positives: -nice job doing the best you can with a dark performance -great job transitioning to different shots smoothly

Improvements: -this was a really tough shoot because it was so dark, try to switch shots with purpose! If they are too dark, try to leave it out of the rotation

Positives: amazing camera placement not only get the faces of the performers but also catches the formations. The coloring and using of negative space helps set the tone of the piece great zooms, and overall motion shots to match the dance movements

Improvements: Not enough cuts to match the beat. needed twice as much cutting needed to cut to side shots in time, felt out of beat

Judge 4

Positives: Good job cutting cameras to the pace of the music. Cameras did a great job on focusing on the action. Really like the side angle shots.

Improvements: I understand the dark mood for the audience, but it was too dark for cameras. Needed some white or some other color light mixed in throughout the whole piece. Could use some more closer camera shots. But overall a good job.
