Great video! You have all five elements, and the definition was explained very well. The role play was also really good and the costumes were cool. Sometimes it's a little bit hard to hear you, but other than that it's really good.
hahah hi bowie! it was very clear cuz u talked so slowly. Not the best quality video but I can still hear you. A very serious face. LOVEE THE LITTLE SKIT that was so cute. Perfectly relating back to the middle ages and morality play
Hey Bowie,
I thought your video was very well done. It met all of the components required and I thought the conversation part was really clever.
:)
Great! That skit thing was very creative! You also had all the requirements. Although I think you enunciated it a little too much, so it started to sound unnatural, like you were speaking to someone with bad hearing. But yes, nicely done.
Good job! Like everyone already said, you had all 5 of the required parts so your video was easy to follow, but it was a bit quiet.
Hi Bowie.... I have to comment again for humanities, :D . but once again good job, all 5 elements , but you should be a bit louder and speak a bit more enthusiastically. but definitely Credit! :)
Hey great job, it looks like a lot of effort and thought was put into it. You have all the elements needed, and the middle-ages part is great. But as denise BH said, there are a few times when you are inaudible and this confuses things. But besides that, great job. Credit!

Hi Bowie! I really liked your video-- you included all five elements and had a great costume-monoskit example related to the medieval times which was very entertaining to watch. At times it is a little hard to hear you, so possibly enunciating and speaking louder would make the video clearer. Great job overall!
Great job! It was creative and fun to watch. The skit was well planned and the word was well explained. it has all the required elements and was unique. Starring, Bowie...Bowie...and Bowie. Smart work. =)
