  1. Good idea and a decent product.
    There are a couple of issues. You don’t have to show the same thing twice as in Caleb getting his hair done.
    Also, the photography itself: if you show the Uno face-off between professors and students , show the drama! Show someone thrilled that they won or dejected that they didn’t. Show something happening. Still photography requires these little milliseconds of time because it does have audio, nor does it have an ongoing narrative, as does Video. See what I mean?
    Also, the skateboarder. Good subject… but not from behind. Show faces and crop tighter. The subject doesn’t tell its own story… you have to use everything we’ve learned to make it happen: Composition, Light, Angle-of-View, etc.
    I think you have the start of something here that’s good… but work on these details, OK?
