DubTV Promo Week Review

For a show put together on one day's notice, I don't think the finished product was all that bad. In essence, a promo week show isn't supposed to be anything more than a bunch of advertisements for things to come, and it accomplished that job wonderfully. As for my role in the Promo Week show, I've been working on "The Classroom" pilot, writing, directing and editing in order to get the first episode ready for the premiere of DubTV. Each week, I'll break down the show using a three tiered system: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.

The Good

• Use of special effects in promo week opening bit; gave the piece some character
• Colorfest ad, shorter than last year's ad and more relevant information
• Beacon cross-promotion was a clever little bit

The Bad

• Hosts looked bored at points, lack of energy in between segments
• The lack of original content; most segments were just taken from outside sources
• Remake of "Late to Class" ran too long, lost peoples attention

The Ugly

• Audio volume in the first segment was low, made it tough to hear
• Classroom promo didn't get people excited about the show
• Title sequence seemed like pretty random hodgepodge of shots
