When Alex and I presented the first edit of our sound piece to the rest of the class we received a variety of mixed opinions on our piece. Although we aimed to have repetition at the start of the piece to gradually speed up, many people felt the pace was not fast enough and this is something I agree with when reviewing the piece. We realise that we will need to record more sounds to add into the piece and speed up the pace even more to create the sense of tension.
When reviewing the positive opinions from our class, we found that many people enjoyed the concept and understood the overall idea we were trying to get across. Some people commented on the clear quality of recordings at the start of the sound track when presenting the morning routine. I am pleased to find out that many of our peers were in favour of our concept and how some comments revealed that they enjoyed being surprised with the disequilibrium at the end.

In terms of the negative points, we found that the majority of the comments pointed out how the pace should be sped up in order to create a more tense atmosphere; a criticism I agree with when reviewing the soundtrack again. Another criticism I agree with is the uncertainty some of my peers had when listening to the atmosphere recordings halfway in the narrative. Although we felt these sound bites fitted well in this part of the narrative (before the disequilibrium) I was then able to see from the audience's perspective how it may seem out of place. These sound bites could still be used on the soundtrack but maybe as a background track to other parts of the narrative. I feel the criticism from my peers was very useful as many of the comments pointed out weaknesses that I could see myself, yet needed to see from another perspective in order to improve them/
Overall Positives:
- Good Idea/Concept
- Clear quality recordings for the morning routine
Overall Negatives:
- Beginning and end sounds need to link together more
- Beginning routine should be faster
