Positive Comments
We especially like the close up shots of Michaela and Chris because it helped reflect the reactions and the feelings of the characters.
-Ashley T. and Michaela C.

We liked this comment because we like our close ups and thought that they fit well.

We really liked the close up of the chew, because it helped emphasize the idea that they were going to chew the stuff.
- Kelsey and Kaycee

We liked this comment because it was something we planned and weren’t too sure about. But we’re glad it worked and that people liked it.

The first music came in right in the beginning and it was intense.
-Isaiah and Caesar

We especially like the extreme close up of the dip because it helped emphasize the idea that what they were doing was wrong.
-Jake and Alex

You could have had them meet up with Michaela and them smiling or some form of acknowledgement that they're good friends not trying to do anything wrong.
-John and Joselyn

we especially like medium shot that showed all of the students with the can of chew.
-Jacob and Morgan

Suggestions

You could have had them meet up with Michaela and them smiling or some form of acknowledgement that they're good friends not trying to do anything wrong.
-John and Joselyn

We liked this suggestion because it was something that we may have been able to do at some point. We also agree that this would improve our resolution.

Possibly make those go a little slower so that people can read it.
-Ashley T. and Michaela C.

You can add to the resolution by showing what happens when the students go back to class.-Jacob and Morgan

We liked this suggestion because we had thought about doing this but thought our video would be too long. If we could we would definitely add this.

you could make the sound louder so that you could hear the dialogue better. –Jake and Alex

1. the val
ue that we are trying to represent is courage. We wanted to show that it always smart to do what you honestly feel is right. Even though there are many pressures (Chew), you can always hold on to your own morals and do what is right. "Its not always cool to do whats right but its not always right to do what is cool." With this we hope to show people at this school that you can say NO!
2.My group has done many things well in this video. We took advantage of our different types of shots and applied them to this film. We used such shots as Close up, Medium, Long shot and others. Also we took advantage of music and setting in thid video. First off we used a couple types of music to show the different themes and strong points of the video, such as playing the bluegrass music during the scene where the chew is pressented, and The metal when we are ditching the class room. Next the setting helped us show the points we were at. The classroom was obvious and really helped show the fact that we were ditching. The scene in the alley showed a tough and rebel-like place where there was a feeling of wrong-doing.
3.We still need to complete a few things. We would like to go back and take a few more shots to maybe show a different vantage point of feeling during the film. Also we need to maybe work on the transitions a little bit more. We can add some more to the classroom scene if we have time, like maybe put a little more suspense in the ditching part..... Maybe us getting almost caught or questioned by the teacher or a campus supervisor.
4.We are Most in need
of feedback on the different types of camera shots and angles we used and possibly suggestions on new ones we could add or change in our video. We were also wondering if the music fit in the scenes that we put it in and how to add or fix it to make it better. What would be a good title for our video or is one really necessary?

5. A challenge that our group had was finding music to fit our video and all of its scenes. we took a while going through all of the sites suggested on the class blog. We didint know which would fit the best. There were a lot of ideas throughout our group but in the end we ultimately chose the bluegrass and metal to show the tone or mood in the scenes where we have the music or actiong describing our value
