Big Opening Weekend

Shot composition is sometimes crafted to the mood and purpose of each scene. Clever and creative shots and angles are used for the majority of the film. Visually interesting and memorable for most of the film.
Indy Buzz

Some clever and creative shots and angles are used, but more attention was paid to WHAT was shot than HOW it was shot.
Rotten Tomato

Little, if any, attention paid to shot composition. Shots and angles are boring. Viewers don't want to continue watching this film.
Director Notes
Audio and Lighting

Box Office Gold

Dialogue sounds clear and crisp. Music and sound effects suit the cinematography, character, and mood. Lighting is always suitable to the mood of the scene, and technically well done.
Big Opening Weekend

The majority of dialogue sounds clear and crisp, with few audio problems. Music and sound effects suit the cinematography, character, and mood for the majority of the film. Lighting is frequently suitable to the mood of the scene, and the majority of it is technically well done.
Indy Buzz

Dialogue is overpowered by background noise or audio buzz. Music and sound effects are in the film because the team liked them, as opposed to helping tell the story. Not much attention was paid to lighting, but the viewer can still see most of the action.
Rotten Tomato

Dialogue is difficult to understand for the majority of the film. Little to no use of music or sound effects. Audio was not a priority in this film. Footage is too dark to be seen or overexposed for the majority of the film.
Director Notes

Big Opening Weekend

Most costumes and props are suitable to character, time, and place. Most props look real.
Indy Buzz

Little attention was paid to planning costumes and props, but the end result isn't too bad. Some props are inappropriate, or look too obviously fake.
Rotten Tomato

People showed up in clothes. That's it. Props are missing or poorly chosen.
