| Comments: |
| Good cinematography, fairly balanced presentation. Could have added more views of buses in busy time to relate “buses” with “people’s demand”. Too long a script though informative. Should be more concise to focus the content and hold audience’s attention. But the cinematography was marked down slightly by
the latter part of the interview. It seems that the two parts are filmed by two different persons – not consistent style. Whilst the filming of the first part is fairly good, the last part of the interviews are not properly done. The camera should not be stationary on him, but should have superimpose his voice on him
talking happily to the student interviewer (not looking at the camera) and/or other background in relation to the content of his speech. Further, when interviewing the old couples Mr & Mrs To, the use of the camera angles are again too plain and not interesting – just stationary onto the old couples, should have
tired different angles of shooting of Mrs To near and far, makes it more interesting, and perhaps interchange with some images of HK’s old buses, and street scenery of the year that she was referring to. |

| The documentary selected a good perspective, i.e., explaining the functionality of the Wetland Park, to express the producers’ thinking of the theme – environmental protection. Important knowledge, such as ecosystem, was well incorporated. The part was beautifully filmed and the accompanying music was well
selected. The script needs more improvement so as to make the flow of ideas more coherent. There are only subtitle at the beginning and the end of the documentary. It would be better to add narration for these parts, especially when questions were raised. |

| This documentary discusses an important philosophical question about life. Meanwhile, it captures two different sides of Hong Kong: materialism and nature. This shows the producers’ thinking of life and creativity. Music was well chose for different themes. In general, watching the documentary is a very
pleasant experience. More editing is needed. |

The team chose a very interesting topic and did some research into making it understandable the social implication YouTube and how it may change the landscape of information being distributed forever. Even though the telling of the story was very plain and straightforward, they managed to do some editing, to
pull in external videos to illustrate their topic. Well done.

1. Voice – over must be loud and clear
2. Good music sets the mood for the whole story / documentary.
3. Excellent camera work (cinematography), script & nice simple editing
4. Interview very long, must be broken up by adding extra vision (e.g. stock footage, etc.)
5. Never use interview that has very noisy background |

The documentary discussed the eating culture in Hong Kong. From the comparative perspective, the producers effectively demonstrated the traditional Cha Chan Tang and its development. The producers are skillful in filming and editing, which lead to extraordinary visual effects. The accompanying music makes
watching the documentary more pleasant.

The interviews were done very well especially in selecting such a diverse group of interviewees. They did showcase a number of different views about this local culture. Two points worth noting: verbal quotes were edited too short and thus difficult to catch and secondly the voice-over is not too clear after
speech alteration.

Well balanced presentation of both food and wedding by featuring a diverse range of different cultures co-existing in Hong Kong. The Interviews were done quite creatively especially the ending. Quite some hard work has been put behind in researching the topics. However, clarity of the voice-over can be
improved so that audience can better understand and follow the story.

It is a current hot topic of the youths today, a topic closes to their heart. It leads them to an interesting discussion. The interviewers were carefully and well selected. The guest ions of the interview are very proper and can reflect the current situation. Use a comparison between the Japanese and HK
Androgyny is a well though planning and incorporates internationalism. The contents are rich and very interesting. The cinematography is very smooth and well shot.
