Pitch Feedback


  • variety of footage - good - should be from various angles.
  • use of text - for info? or could be more visually interesting?
  • different perspectives from different subjects? - different gymnasts? friends? family?
  • music- good choice of using instrumentals - not to interfere with interviews
  • editing of music- will be effective to best show off routine - get response from the audience
  • audience- interested in gymnastics - people interested in training - how to broaden range of audience 
  • Look at more documentaries, not just dance documentaries. 
  • Suitable name 
  • intense/ interesting
  • dramatic music gives an anticipating effect.
  • unique idea
