Representation issues.
Did you give positive messages… or negative …. were you biased?
Did your package only include boys/girls or both?
Were different ethnic groups included in your plans? If not, why not?
How did your music track add to the mood of the piece?
Were the locations appropriate to the package? Why? Why not?
Was the language appropriate for your target audience?
Was it realistic when compared to a similar professional product?

Technical issues
What were the levels like? Voice? Music? Background?
Did you cut off anyone’s voice when you edited the piece? If you did, how could you solve this next time?
Was the microphone work o.k.? Why? Why not?
Was there enough variety to keep your audience interested?
Was your editing o.k.? Have you used single track editing or multi-track editing?
Have you used sound effects? Why? Why not?
Have you used any actuality in your piece? What was it?


Conventions/Narrative
