Peer Assessment

In todays lesson we did a peer assessment. Two peers from my class assessed my film for strengths and weaknesses.

• Transitions are clear and simple so it reflects the Social Realism genre.

WEAKNESSES:

• The font doesn't look very professional.
• The audience feel obliged to read them, so maybe make them a bit quicker.
• The film name needs to stand out more - make this a different font to the others.
