comments on romeo and juliet

1) Flipbook

Positives
This is a good idea to dipict what happens in the play. even though it is rather brief, it gets the main pionts of the play across.
Its advantage is that it only takes one person to complete, no acting or make-up needed.
Negatives
The technological making of this type of play is a long and grueling process, having to draw out each seccond of the play induvidualy. It is very brief and with no talking, can become very boring.
Also the presenter should hold the flipbook much more steady in order for it to be easier to read.

2) Scottish puppets

Positives and Negatives
This Production was very funny to start with but soon it became dull and annoying. I couldnt tell who was who, and the back ground was plain and dull, and should have changed with the scene.
Overally i think more thought should have been put into this because the ideas with puppeteering are unlimited.

3) Stop Motion
Positves
Another brilliant idea, almost professionallooking, it gives anew action packed view to the first scene. The filming was extremelly good giving many differnt camera angles, just like in a real movie. The dolls used gave a very modern feel but since we allready now them from other movies, we can take an instant liking or disliking to them.
The musicgives the right impression at the right times, for example, suspenceful when characters are in a sticky or threatening situation.
Negatives
I have almost no negative thought towards this, as i absolutlly loved it, all though since toy dolls were used, there was allmost no flexibility on thier movements.
4) Animation
I didnot like this video at all and have no positive comments to offer.
Negatives
This was boring and stale, there was no motion and the scene was very short.
So much more could have been done with anamatics
