I thought this piece was very different and in some ways experimental. The use of spoken words and the text on the screen reinforced the messaged that you were trying to put across, so congrats for that. Really great piece, quite original!

I like the fact that Bianka's story was central to the experience and that the visual aspects supported the story without being distracting or typical. (I'm assuming that on your rating scale a 5 is the best rating?)

Your voiceover is powerful. The audio recording is excellent - your vocal delivery is really strong too. The visual aspect, I'm not quite as excited by. I like the idea of highlighting certain words in your text to accentuate them, but I think I would have preferred a more image based approach (I really like the images of you and your family and the other images that you shared in the second half of your movie - I would have liked to see a bit more of this in the first half). Great job - very powerful and well executed!

I liked the look you took with stereotypes in this piece. It was well done and a good personal story.

It's a good request to others to look beneath the superficial and see what's actually there.

This digital story is so deep. Everytime I watch it it makes me so proud of all of the work that we do at Youth Rights Media. This film just shows how you could never tell what's going on inside of a person's head just by looking at them. Keep making them films Binky! Good job!

Amazing narration. Simple and elegant presentation. The narration almost more than makes up for scarcity of many visuals; if anything the combination is even more stark.
