Strengths and Weaknesses of Wipeout

One thing that the group did very well was making each character very distinct in the way they moved and the way they went through the obstacle course. Giving each one their own song to match them was also a good way to make each one unique. It was really funny to watch each one play out and I liked the effects they added. Hunter did a good job as the old man and the fat man - he added a lot of physical comedy while he was going through the obstacle course and really stayed in character. Sarah’s characters (the nerd and the little girl) were also both very funny, especially the little girl at the end. She made her look very happy and carefree. I also likes how her first character kept reading the book until the very end. Jordan did a really good job after he shot himself in the foot - he was very dramatic and the music also made it a lot funnier.

The group could have added more of an ending to the show, rather than just finishing after the little girl. They could have announced the winner or had the person who finished go last instead of having it happen so early on. Some of the songs with a lot of words were a little distracting and kind of took away from the purpose of the silent movie. The ones without words seemed to match the characters better because they sounded less like songs you might listen to in your free time and more like a theme song playing for each character. The words weren’t always relevant to what was actually going on in the movie - like the song from Tangled at the end - even if they fit the mood and feel of the character.
