critique session for my Hallsville jewelry-maker TV package

I survived the critique session. That's a good news to start with.

Well to be honest I wasn't confident at all with how the TV package turned out. It's not the best "baby" that I have given birth to in my entire life. There were just inevitable situational restrictions that limit me from doing the story the way I wanted it to be.

And I'm personally not a big fan of my own stand up. To start out with, it's not the most enjoyable thing in the world to see and listen to myself on tape over and over again. But I guess picking up the most perfect take is even harder. Because there's almost none of it! Oh well, at least that what I think.

My teacher went over a lot of things. Some of them are:
- I should avoid pop cuts.
- Think tighter. Some of my shots are too lose. All of the other things around my focus can be very distracting.
- I can't be "soft" on my stand up. Meaning that I must not be out of focus while the things around me are in focus.
