MMEA Fest

Does this count for points? Students, think first before asking your teacher!

4/30 2:20 pm - This was a really solid, funny PSA! You did a nice job putting it together, and there was a good mix of shots, text, and visuals that kept it interesting. The extras helped fill out the classroom and made it feel more real, which was a nice touch. I also liked the reaction shots from the teacher and students—they added a lot and helped balance the serious message with humor. If you tightened up the timing a bit and added a few more dynamic effects, it could make the jokes hit even harder. Overall, great work!
4/27 11:07 am - Your use of graphics was fantastic and the tone, from narration to reaction shots of students, was serious while still hitting a comedic level. Really nice work all around. While this is funny there is also a serious note that runs through. Nice work What worked best was how clean and sharp everything was, from the shot types to the editing. I particularly loved your reaction shots, be it of the teacher or the class. One of the issues with this video is the pace / timing of the humor feels a bit slow and "behind the beat", so to speak. For instance, because it's humorous the slow fades of the cropping at 46 seconds slows things down, or the titles coming up at a slower pace without much audio effect slows down the pace of the video. While everything is sharp, from the filming to the editing to the sound design, the humor could be amped by the pace and speed and effects. Keep up the great work!
