I have left you a review in the game itself, but accidentally it got deleted, so I will write it here instead. I find this to be your best work so far. The quality of the sound recording is of better quality than in your previous work. Did you change the technique, microphone or something?

You have a very pleasant voice and can control it quite well, while being immersed in the interpretative reading. Your voice is probably the best one I have heard on LBP2 so far. And you really give additional depth to the movie. (Which is why I also contacted you on PSN. )

The scenario itself is well thought out, and it works rather well. I feel that it could have used couple more scenes in the middle, the purpose of which would be more meaningful transition to the flashbacks. Maybe more elaborated character background? But then again, the effect of the short and condensed feeling would be lost, so I am not all that certain on this one, but one can always ponder.

Regarding the issue of subtitles, which I saw you touched upon in previous topics, please use them in your next levels. They are not distracting if well synced. I mean the limitations of LBP recording have to be accepted. It is an unavoidable fact that voice quality is not all that great, due to which some words can be lost and/or muffled. Subtitles would help to deal with this issue. You don’t want your viewers to struggle and focus all their attention on deciphering some words, while loosing the flow of the story.

I look forward to your future works.

Edit: Oh yea, do some Greek tragedies.

I very much liked the idea of an actor getting in touch with the humanity of that scene. Very nicely done. As you asked for suggestions, I'm a fan of classical theater so Shakespeare (done well, which you did here) is always welcomed. At the same time some funny stuff is excellent. Mix it up do some of both, so long as you enjoy it too.2011-02-24 10:36:00

This was cool. I thought it was a big improvement on the Hamlet film, just because you managed to create more variety/interest for the viewer. Giving the speech some context was nicely done and definitely gave the final speech more impact.

Well done. You've carved yourself a unique niche in LBP with these films. Stick at it!
