Diary of a Dying Man

Unfortunately, this didn't really work for me. The footage didn't seem to match and there were a lot of jarring bits after he goes outside with the back and forth. I really did not enjoy the acting in this at all, either which held it back. The makeup at the end is off and I couldn't even tell if the change was supposed to have fully (or even halfway) happened.
A/V Quality: 8 - No issues.
Visual Editing: 7 - Would have liked to see colors matched up more, smoother cuts between rooftop exterior stuff.
Audio Editing: 8 - Worked, it was pretty good.
Narrative: 7 - Cool idea to make this, I just think the footage was really weak.
Enjoyment: 5 - I just didn't really enjoy this. Interesting idea but I could not get past the acting, and when it's a short centered around one guy talking to the camera, it took me out of it.

I did not care for this very much. The editing and sound are fine; however the basic plot was not conveyed well. The 2004 dawn of the dead footage does not match the other film sources and it should have been over dubbed (with better fitting music, no music or just something more atmospheric to fit), Instead you still hear the scenes somewhat uppity music.
I understand what the edits intentions were, I just do not think it was pulled off successfully. If the clips were arranged in a better order (like the news first, then Andy for a bit then back to the news, the end), and with some kind of better transition between the news and Andy then maybe. The switching between news footage and Andy kept making me think of a viewer just changing the channel on a tv. Great effort and idea, but not executed as well as it could have been – 2 stars
