Peer review blog

Reviewer #1

The first reviewer praised the foreshadowing at the start of the sequence, when the kidnapper is visible in the distance behind Jasmine. She also enjoyed the scenario with the empty swing, which led to the kidnapping. However, she admitted that she didn't really get the concept of Jasmine's revenge in the last scene. I believe this is due to our decision not to have Imani hold a knife in that scenario for safety reasons. I don't think we'll solve it, but we'll compensate with voiceover. 

Reviewer #2

The second reviewer said they enjoyed the entire movie. They did not suggest any specific improvements. However, they noted that the second part of the sequence appeared to be a little off. They said it was more unprofessional than the first.

Reviewer #3

The third critic stated that they loved the actors' facial expressions. They did express a desire to hear additional diegetic sound throughout the sequence to break up the music played. They believed that this would create some of the sequences. The second half of the sequence appears to be more indicative of a kidnapping, as Jasmine expresses anxiety. I believe we should add some screaming, crying, and/or whimpering from Jasmine throughout the sequences.

Reviewer #4

The fourth and final reviewer said they enjoyed the moment in which the abductors acted. They did suggest that we give some backstory on the abductor. They wanted something similar to how we provided context on Jasmine. Though this could be an intriguing concept, the sequence has already reached our time. There probably wouldn't be enough time for another 2-4 scenes to add some backdrop.

With the reviews that are presented we will be making changes to make our film brighter!
