Studio Mask

Love the cinematopgraphy!

Hands down the best jump scare in the comp this year - well done! Your tone was creepy as, and your school's media area was a cool place to shoot. Very nice.

The story itself, though, was pretty confusing - what we're they trying to do? were they just breaking in to look around? was the killer one of the kids? Was this a trap? Did he become possessed? Why? So many questions!

THE BEST THING: That jump scare was excellent, and overall the monster was very tense - well done!
THE NEXT THING: Story is king! Give us more to chew on and help us connect to your characters.

The shortlist is a mystery; this really deserved a spot.

Shot in a pretty interesting, emotive way for the most part. I was super engaged with the story beats at the start, but the performances didn't sell some of the more emotional segments towards the end.

But overall, really impressive!

Since the movie isn't currently online, I'm writing this review based on illegible notes and my bad memory. Hopefully they haven't failed me!

I was really impressed by this film. You used the location really effectively. The film had excellent camerawork and a great look.

You had a great vision for how you wanted to bring this genre to life, and you absolutely delivered.

Spooky vibes. Great makeup. Fun monster. Intriguing concept. Great work setting everything up so that the creature could pick off the characters one by one.

Trying to remember the film to write this review, all sorts of interesting sounds, visions, and twists are popping into my mind. I don't know how accurate my memory is but clearly your creative vision left a strong impression on me.

Spectacular work team! There was a strong visual flare to this film and some really awesome practical effects that sold the deaths. Great use of location too! The interconnected yet isolating environment of a TV studio 100% lends itself to a horror so it's cool to see you guys make use of it. Well done

Thank you guys for all the reviews

I'll take this feedback and hopefully make an even better film next year!
