Rough cut feedback

On the day we reviewed eachother's rough cuts, it gave me quite an insight into how much work I had done in relation to other groups.
From what was gathered after that activity, we have discovered that some of our work is in need of shortening, or indeed adding some variation to- some work will need to be mixed to make the scene more interesting for the audience, as some themes and shots perhaps continue for too long, and seems perhaps too static.
Fortunately, we have recieved much praise for the music and the camera work, however, there is much editing to do, as it appears to be our weakest attribute.
However, things such these were all expected from the beginning and will be dealt with and will be finished indefinately in the next four lessons.
However, there is one thing that was not expected, and that was the degree to which the change of scenery was taken- it appears as though whilst the first half of the peice was acceptable, there was a heavy contrast present in relation to the second half, which seemed to be "an entirely different movie altogether".
This is troubling, as it may lead to some kind of delay to the date at which this peice must be done by.

I have chosen to ignore some criticism because the comments made did not reflect on what my envisioning of the final peice to be, comments such as "the plot is confusing" and "the diagetic sound is poor" is irrelavant to me, as i do not intend for there to be any diagetic sound that was recorded at the shooting day, and not all of the shots were shown on the rough-cut quicktime file.

More work shall follow.
