Do you really need to see what their doing? Are there >not enough references around for that to be picked up? Overall, I agree with your self-crits. Working on the show? I re-looked at your images. I can sort of see how the kids might be working on a show now. I didn't pick that up at all from just looking at your images. In alt #1, I didn't pick up that the poster on the wall was in any way connected with what the kids were doing. Is alt #2 connected, too? What about the main? I see a connection between alt #1 and alt #3. I agree with having a blank hall be better. I'd like to see a lower camera angle, shooting up into the girl's face. Show us that her eyes are open and that she isn't just sleep painting. :) I figured the kids were creating signs for a pep rally or something similar. Decorating the halls with the normal school spirit posters. If they're putting on a show--and you want to communicate that--you might want to think about a more blatant way to show us. >> Regarding Xtol.

Neopan 1600 in Xtol 1:3 is wonderful. I expose at 1600 and use 12 mins @ 70 F. Four rolls in a 1 L tank with 250 ml of Xtol.
