Also, I held a focus group where I had a few people watch it and then do a short review on what they thought about it. One of the reviews I have was from one of the girls. They said:

"Overall, the project was enjoyable to watch. The part of the video that really struck me was the slow and fast motion sections. The slow motion start to the project was a good way of introducing the characters. We really got the chance to analyse the characters e.g. their appearance. The twist nearer to the ending of the slow motion section was funny to watch. The music in the background suited the slow motion as it reminded me of beach scenes when movies introduce characters.
Another section I enjoyed was the fast motion bit. It added a sort of comedic element to the whole thing. The way fast motion was used showed the characters being chased in less time than the usual pace, making that section shorter and therefore less boring to watch. It helped me as the audience engage with the piece instead of skipping it or loosing interest in the video. The music also supported the faster pace because it was quick and kind of rushed. This supported the chase showing how they were in a rush.
The way the new student was presented was done cleverly too. The use of worms eye view showed how the student is taller and bigger than the rest of the characters, exaggerating their size. I could tell that this was the aim, to make the character look bigger than the rest. The use of worms eye view added to the introduction of the new student showing the perception of the characters of the new student.
Different elements used throughout the video made it enjoyable to watch and the music added to the video. Overall, the video was funny and had a good storyline that followed through throughout."
