Feedback

Overall, I think that the feedback we received was fairly helpful. We were happy to hear that most of our peers found our film opening to be humorous.

Many comments included positive feedback on the camera work, where the dramatic use of zooms, reverse zooms, and zoom-ins created a more comedic effect on the product.

This shot signifies the importance of Santa Claus's faults, as seen by losing his most important reindeer. The fourth shot listed is a wide shot of the Easter Bunny entering the conference room and slowly walking out after listening to the commotion. This shot attempts to incorporate humor by providing relief to the tension after addressing Santa Claus's wrongdoings, which could be s...
