Peer Review: Katie's Group

When Stephanie and I couldn't figure out how to upload the person we had to peer review's movie, we decided to review another group's video. A girl named Katie asked if we could review her groups video because they didn't have anyone to review or anyone to their video. So our groups exchanged our movies. Stephanie and I watched the other group's film the first time and we had complete forgot to actually fill out our peer review sheet because we were so invested in the movie. We watched it again a second time and actually paid attention to the things we needed to find. The video was the correct length and it did tell a story. We thought the story line of the film is that two women kill men by tricking them into going on dates. The transitions were very clean but they didn't have all the correct titles. Throughout the majority of the film, there was good lighting. However, in the scenes where the girls are driving in a car at night, the lighting could've been improved.

The sound quality wasn't the best in some parts of the film. In scenes where there is noise in the background, the group can use voice overs for the dialogue. The group did avoid filming the tripod, other people filming, etc.. As for camera angles and editing, the group had a wide variety of both. However, some things they could add to the film is an establishing shot, a pan, and a shot reverse shot. Stephanie and I really enjoyed the plot of the film. It was interesting and easy to follow so it kept our attention. Some critiques we had were that they should add those camera angles that they were missing, finish adding all of their titles, and improve the lighting and audio in the car scenes. Overall, we were happy to be reviewing such a good film. We felt inspired by it and we want to use some of the techniques this group used in our film when we do re-shoots.
