    The Classroom (rough cut)

    This is a movie about a teacher who decides he could get more work done if he didn't have any papers, HW or tests to grade and how the class reacts to this. The video, right now, is just clips in sequence (no extra sound, effects, titles, transitions, etc.). Still quite a bit of work to do before the deadline.
    rough vidI have uploaded the low quality version, because it's still pretty long and needs a fair amount of trimming.

    I liked the humorous approach (always engaging) and the learning subterfuge was very clever. Some nice camera angles (high as the books come out, in the desks, in the closet). I know this isn't the final pacing, but I would make the editing as snappy as possible; give us no time to get side tracked; show just what's necessary and then on too the next. What standard is this addressing?

    Classic Erdos. I thought the camera in the desk was great. Are we on for basketball during the LA block?

    Very creative! I like the camera shots. Background music and tightening up the clips will help. Can't imagine why students would actually like to learn!! Ha Ha! Less tests would definitely be better.

    So, are you still in the closet? Good idea, all that is left is to clean it up. Adding some cool transitions will help too.

    Vintage "The Office." Funny stuff!

    Really liked the shots from inside the desks and the high angle of the students pulling their books out of their desks in unison. I can tell you put a lot of thought into the concept. Looking forward to the final product.
