Good variety of camera angles/shots. (1:08 seconds in)

Editing matching the style. (1:34 seconds in)

Cons:

Bad acting (19 seconds in)

Digi Pak and poster focus group breakdown

Pros

Mise-en scene matches my genre (32 seconds in)

Liner pictures that told a story (46 seconds in)

Good thought about how to show story (58 seconds in)

Easy to understand story that links to my music video through good references (1:05 seconds in)

Good shot types/clear images (1:30 seconds in)

Good amount of informative information so that picture wasn’t ruined(3:02 seconds in)

Cons

Topless shot might be confusing as only one actor different have top off (1:38 seconds in)
