  • 4/28 8:50 pm - + Creative graphic. The talking and walking/explaining is an interesting style and works well for this topic - Would benefit from more than one interview. Story is lacking, mostly just a show and tell of the program and space.
  • 4/5 8:50 pm - KEEPERS: Cool concept in terms of showing off cool classrooms at school. The graphic introduction was well produced and I was impressed with the quality of the audio in this piece - particularly captured from the teacher. IMPROVEMENTS: Work on your editing skills and pacing overall. This peace needed to be at least 30% shorter. If you're trying to create something based on the style of something that already exists (MTV Cribs) make sure you watch and scrutinize how those episodes work. As a case in point, your piece needed flashier jump cuts, and transitional elements that moved the teacher to the different areas of the room: primary classroom, dark room and green room. The journey into each of those spaces should have featured a new song, jump cuts, speed ramps, etc. that invoke the MTV cribs style. The piece also needed some sort of an ending from your teacher: "This is my crib. Thanks for visiting. Now get out and if you want to come back, take my class." Again, follow the MTV Cribs style for this. Good foundational piece with a lot of potential. Keep working on editing pacing and transitional work!
