The 6 best comments:
-The most important sound effect was the beep after when Dillon spat the apple out. It was very funny. John and Joselyn
- Over all we think you did a good job you made a value hilarious and random. Michaela C, Ashley T
- We especially like the extreme close-up of Dillon's eyes. Brad and Chris
- We especially like the extreme closeup shot of Dillon because it helped emphasize the idea that the apple was bad. Michaela and Cole
- the rapid zooming in and out on the chocolate milk Kelsey
- the close up on the kids knees when he came out of the bathroom Kelsey
-the rapid zooming in and out of the kids face at the end of the film Kelsey
Suggestions:
-One edit you could change wene jake is comeing out of the bathroom an he said something i could not hear him. we felt that point was right there it was good. Jake and Alex
- There wasn't any music but we suggest maybe a strolling type of music in the beginning until the guy gives the apple to Dillon. John and Joselyn
-. If you could re-film your shots some things that you could do would be to speak louder when filming and make the opening shot less shakey Kelsey
- The credits were not done. Sabrena, Ashley P, Eddie E

The positive comments that were most meaningful to us were from Kelsey, John, and Joselyn. (two different posts, not a pair saying one thing).Kelsey told us that she liked a lot of our angles and our zoomingand that was helpful becausewe weren't quite sure if anyone would like them or if it would even be effective at all. In addition, John and Joselyn told us that our beep sound effect was cool, and that helped us see that kids our age like potty mouths.
The two best suggestions we got were from Jake and alex,  and John and Joselyn.

Jake and Alex suggested that we turn up the sound because they couldn't hear the funny parts. We agree with this suggestion, and our plan to address it is to turn it up!John and Joselyn suggested that we add music to our walking part and just to add music in general. We agree with this suggestion, and our plan to address it is to possibly add some tunes that fit with our video.

Dillon and I did ours together.
1) What value are you trying to represent?
Our group's video represent the value of honesty.
2) What do you think your group has done well?
We really like all the different shot we've used and the story. We had to edit the script a bit because some of the props were hard to find. (pepper) Marleen likes all the acting, it's cute.
3) What do you still need to complete?
We still need to edit in some things. We used words Dr A didn't like so we're going to fix that sooner or later. We also have to do our behind the scenes and stuff.
4) What are you most in need of feedback about?
We want to know if our video is a bit too bold, boring, too much or just right.
5) Identify a challenge your group discovered and faced in creating the film. Focus on a challenge about how to best tell your story. Describe how you dealt with that challenge, including discussions you had, things you tried and decided to leave out, and what you ultimately did to address it.
One of the challenges we had was we couldn't find Dillon a best friend. We found Jake and that was pretty cool. We also didn't really want to use a tripod but Dr A said we would lose points if our video was shakey. Another problem we seem to have is that we curse all the time so we have to edit it out or just re film everything all over again.
