The documentary evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of a mobile phone documentary. The strengths include well-framed interviews where the subject looks at the camera rather than the interviewer and edited questions and answers that make sense. Weaknesses include music that is too loud with distracting lyrics, a boring reflective background for the interview, a remaining jump cut, similar cutaways, and shots that are slightly out of focus or wobbly.

2. Strengths
Interview framed correctly; Off centre, medium close up, subject looking at the camera rather
than the interviewee.
All questions edited out correctly and answers made sense on their own.
No background noise is heard in the interview.
Cutaways used are relevant to the topic.
Cutaways mainly hide jump cuts.
Interviewee is sat on a legged chair.

3. Weaknesses
Music bed used is slightly too loud and song choice has lyrics which are distracting for the audience.
Song choice also has explicit language.
Background of the interview is boring and also reflective.
One jump cut left in the final product.
Cutaways are very similar.
Interview is distracted by item in their hands.
Some Cutaways contain very cluttered backgrounds.
Some shots are slightly wobbly and out of focus.
Mobile phones used in Cutaways are hindered by the screen brightness meaning they are un readable on camera.
