Media Awards 

Second Level South:
Firstly, I liked Second Level South because of the narrative, it followed a funny storyline and had me engaged throughout. Furthermore, I liked the way the shots were placed, e.g. the over-the-shoulder shot of the character talking to his friend then straight cut to a wide shot of him where his facial expressions are visible. This shot then jump cuts to the character he called and this is a good example of editing. Additionally, the use of the wipe cut during the conversation helped engage the audience and explain what was going on.

The Experiment:
I liked The Experiment due to the narrative as it was unique. Similarly, the use of jump cuts to different parts of the story and memories helped create drama and tension and mad the audience engaged. On the other hand, the use of the non-diegetic sound, voice over, made the audience understand the thought process going through the protagonist, who we have not yet until towards the end. However, the fact that we have heard her voice, shows her importance and also makes us focus on everything that is happening and follow the narrative.
