Always Room For Improvement
The 4th project ‘Sketchy Students’ has been quite a challenging process for our class to produce. I’m under the impression that the episodes are improving. Each group continues to learn from the process and is gradually creating a better outcome as a whole. I must admit I wasn’t too impressed with the pilot episode but the second episode is definitely an improvement with better quality in production and storyline. There has been plenty of debate behind the scenes on what direction this show is going. It appears that the mockumentary element has all but disappeared which I find a bit disappointing. But the production team are doing a great job with the limited time and resources. Some of the acting has been quite entertaining as well.
The third episode was also an improvement but I think the Imma Nowhere joke didn’t really hit the mark. This character was meant to be someone that never turns up to class then suddenly appears out of the blue. I think we could have written this segment better. But Jordan made the scene quite amusing with his acting skills. I was also surprised to find out that the behind-the-scene footage was getting more views on social media than the show itself. Whether this is a real concern is up for debate. I think it is a worry if people are enjoying the behind-the-scene footage more than the actual show. But if this aspect attracts more of an audience then who am I to complain? In any case it is interesting to know all the broadcasting figures that are now so easily attainable on social media.
