This is our final cut of our first project. We feel this piece was very successful even though this was our first attempt of using the equipment and resources.
Keri, this is really good. You have used a decent sample size and have some interesting responses. There are some great uses of on screen titles and cuts between shots/interviewees.

In the script for Narnia, these are our list of characters: Mr Beaver Mr Beaver is a comical character, however he also plays a crucial role in telling the Pevensie children that they play a crucial role in killing the Ice Queen and that Aslan is waiting for them. He seems to be the eyes and the ears of Narnia although no one expects it. Mr Tumnus and Mr Beaver seem to be close aquanitances as he gave Mr beaver the handerchief before he got taken. Mrs Beaver Mrs Beaver is also a comical character. She plays a 'typical' 'old fashioned' female as when the children arrive she tells them that she hasnt had time to do her fur, and to "excuse the mess" as if it is her job to tidy the house. She is also the one to tell the children that they are the two sons of Adam and the two daughters of Eve. Lucy Pevensie Lucy Pevensie is the youngest out of the children.
