Video Review
Because this is a class, constructive criticism is important as you better your craft. Sometimes people will see something in your movie/video that you missed or missed something you intended to show. In this assignment you will be reviewing each movie in a google form - 1 for each movie. We will screen the movies in class, you will score them and then explain your ratings in the comments section. You are being graded on how you score the movie and justify your rating in the comment section. Comments should explain things you don't like and offer suggestions for improvement. For example, "The audio was too low and I couldn't understand the narrator. You could either up the volume of the speaker or lower the volume of the music under the narrator or eliminate it."

Then watch the video and take the notes from the tutorial video. When you have finished the tutorial, go back out and reshoot they same shots using the suggestions and techniques for good video shot composition you learned in the video.
