Feedback of Final Cut
People said that our music was one if the best things in our was the soundtrack, however the volume was so loud that at times it dominated the voice-over. It was advised that we turn the soundtrack down and turn up the voice-over. However people thought that the voice-over needed to be longer in places, like after the first line. Another problem observed was that there were too few shots in general in our sequence. Having looked at these We agree with the sound criticisms, we know the soundtrack and the voice-over drowned each other out, especially at the first line. It also was an unnaturally quick journey from the hallway to the classroom.

Character Comparison
These two character are ones that we think resemble our main character. The one on the left is from "10 Things I Hate About You" and the one on the right is from "Drillbit Taylor". The first is "Michael Eckman", and the second is "Wade". Wade is a nervous, skinny, pressured and fairly stereotypical nerd, who is bullied, pressured by his father, unsure of himself, wears glasses and has a crush on a fellow student. Michael Eckman, is a more "nerdy" character, who is obsessed with technology, as well as being the former head of a technology society at his school. We took most of the character "Wade" and combined it with the "extra nerdiness" of Michael. We took the romantic theme from both, as "10 Things I Hate About You" is a romantic comedy. We took the description from "Wade", with the costume from "Michael". With all these things we made "Tom".
