    Overall Score: 17/20

    - I like the establishing shot from the dark outside
    - The music to start is really effective, it would've been even more effective to try time that drum beat with the reveal that there was a creepy guy standing outside the window
    - I think it's great that you've really experimented with sound here and tried a few different things. My advice would be to just get some feedback and check that you are getting the desired effect. Some of the bigger sound effects detract a little bit from the suspense. It would be a good idea to really watch suspense-filled scenes and see how artfully and cleverly they use sound. It has to be discreet enough to not notice it but obvious enough that it achieves the result of us getting tense just hearing it with the visual action.
    - the blackouts are effective as an editing style when repeated a few times, that was an interesting editing choice and i think you pulled that off until the end when the cuts became quicker and it was a bit disorientating when you're trying t see what's happening to the main character. This tension could have been better built using slow, longer takes and then speed it up with the chase scene
    - I told the others in your team, i think the emphasis on the little girl is a bit unnecessary as we don't have any back-story.
    - really good idea to shoot to the shot list / storyboard to get all those shots for the chase scene, a pity those weren't in there
    - Title is good but could have been more central as a focus point, credits work to achieve what they need to
