- 4/30 2:06 pm - + You seem passionate about the topic! Good job finding "archival" footage. -b-roll is mostly from outside sources, I believe. I'm not really sure that this is a documentary. It is mostly a narration with archival footage. You need interviews.
- 4/13 12:59 pm - KEEPERS: This is a really well done found footage documentary. The narration is well written and well performed. The layering of the broll, animations and imagery is captivating. The imagery filmed by the documentarians was also done well. IMPROVEMENTS: As much a I really liked this piece it needed more original imagery and production aside from the editing and the voice over. It's cool that you were able to create this documentary on a subject you feel passionate about but it needed to be taken further from a production standpoint. Could you have interviewed people you know? Sought out street artists or visual artists in your school to speak on this topic? In short, it needed more produced unqiue voices than just the omnipotent voice over style lent by the production. There were two instances when you used snippets of interviews and cut them into the piece. Who were those people? Lower third identification would have helped immensely here because I don't know who those people are or why I should care about their thoughts on Banksy. Overall, this was a really cool piece but it needed more original production elements to make it a true, original documentary.
