Peer Review Blog

    On Monday, I peer reviewed group 8's final task. Technically, it was really good. The sound was clear and consistent. I didn't have to turn up my volume to understand anything and there were no jarring, sudden noises. The lighting was, for the most part, not too intense. I could easily see what was going on in the video. However, in one scene, the back lighting was a little too strong and made the focus of the shot dark and hard to see. The transitions were clean and varied. They also had a variety of different shots which made the film visually interesting. The "directed by" credit wasn't at the very end, though. It came up a while before the film actually ended.

   What I liked most about the film was the acting. I thought the actors did a good job giving the characters personalities. I understood the relationship between the characters and how it lead to the conflict of the film. I thought about the suggestion I wrote on the paper and decided that the ending wasn't actually a problem. Not understanding the ending could just be a personal problem. Plus, it did leave me wanting to see more, so it's not entirely a bad thing. Instead, I would suggest changing the scene where the younger sister is hit by a car. The sped-up footage looks out of place compared to the footage immediately before and after it. I think this could be changed by making the shot shorter or having the actor run faster.
