- 4/17 3:52 pm - Solid job filming overall. This reel would have benefited from several more shots highlighting your control over lighting conditions and showcasing strong compositional skills. You were limited partly by the short duration of the reel and the fact that you kept going back to the scene with the geese. You leave us wanting more...
- 4/15 8:50 am - PROS - Solid Technical Foundation: The reel demonstrates a good grasp of basic cinematography principles, including stable camera work and clear framing. Effective Use of Close-Ups: Close-up shots are well-executed, capturing subject details effectively and contributing to the visual storytelling. IMPROVEMENTS: Creative Risk-Taking: The reel would benefit from more adventurous camera angles and movements to add visual interest and demonstrate a broader range of skills. Lighting Control: Lighting appears natural but lacks intentionality. Introducing controlled lighting setups could enhance mood and focus within scenes. OVERALL: This reel reflects a solid understanding of fundamental cinematography techniques. To elevate future work, focusing on creative experimentation and expanding the sample size is recommended. These enhancements will showcase a more comprehensive skill set and artistic vision.
- 4/9 8:11 am - Nice collection of shots, but the category is 2 minutes to showcase a larger body of work. The shots you showed are full of potential as you shot in a variety of lighting situations from quite a few projects- just show more next time.
Judge 1
Positives: Nice lighting and saturation in the subdued lit scenes. Creative shots exhibit potential.
Improvements: Too brief to adequately showcase cinematography skills. More time needed to build on your project.
Judge 2
Positives: Rozzie, good work on this. every shot is pleasing to the eye. I like how you weren't afraid to extend a shot as you edit. Night time stuff can be a challenge. Excellent job capturing that.
Improvements: consider natural sound, esp on outdoor beauty shots...wind chimes, etc. maybe a little wide, medium, tight sequences. there were opportunities to do so, for instance, witht the ducks. Appreciate your hard work on this, Rozzie.

Positives: Great lighting and use of color throughout the reel! The lighting was well-balanced, enhancing the mood of each scene, and the color choices really helped bring everything together. It created a cohesive and visually engaging reel. Nice work!
Improvements: I’d love to see some more camera movement. Experimenting with pans or even going handheld (if it fits the piece) could add more dynamism and energy to the shots. It would bring a fresh, engaging feel to the reel!
