- Homework
- 5 pts: Pacing (Is it so slow the audience gets bored? Is it so fast the audience misses things?)
- 5 pts: Audio (Is the dialogue clearly spoken? Do other sounds drown the dialogue out? Do the sounds help reinforce the plot?
- 5 pts: Visuals (Title & credits? Can the audience see what's going on? Do the shot choices direct the audience's focus in ways that help move the plot along? Are the transitions distracting?)
- 5 pts: Video should be a documentary of a parent or guardian doing something interesting.
