Great way to show the environment, I felt like you were really standing in front of a group of people at a funeral. my only note would be to move your eyeline up just a little.

Nice Mark! Although I hope I place higher..😃😃 Good use of your eyes, while speaking to the crowd. Felt like you were there. Keep going my friend. 👍

Good job! You nailed the technical elements, especially with those fantastic pauses and subtle eye shifts that kept the screen dynamic. BUT...this piece is written as a comedy, and while your intensity was really strong, the delivery leaned a bit more toward anger than humor. I would have loved to see you find some quirky, comedic lightheartedness with tone and facial expressions so that the fun of the script could pop. You have great instincts, and blending that sharp physical control with a softer, funnier energy will make the next version shine!

Mark, Initially I was a little confused about your choice to enter the scene, however I soon realized what you were doing. You are the first tape I've seen that didn't choose to speak from the pew/seat. That was unique.
I wish we'd have seen your eyes look up some from the crowd but I understand what you were portraying.
Look was great, tone was authentic and I especially loved the exit "humph". Good job.

Good energy and believable performance. Not over the top, just the right balance. Loved the Harrumph at the end.

Mark,
Great job! It was subtle and realistic. You had good delivery and it looked like you were seeing the audience you were talking to. Sometimes, to improve a piece you're working on it helps to watch the timing. Don't be afraid of silence and feel free to take time with delivery or between sentences. Let the thoughts come to you. Well done!
