Good inprovised stuff.Maybe funnier if a bit or a lot more extreme.Nerdier looking and sounding maybe.Good luck.

I didn't find it that funny, but I thought it could so easily have been a bit of a hoot. I felt there were loads of missed opportunities for making it funny, simply by actively mocking the guards and revealing their total incompetence. You've got all the set ups in place - but you just haven't made use of them. For example, in the scene about the trees being planted to break the fall of any student who jumped out of a window, it was crying out for a visual gag of some kind - perhaps a partly dressed dummy hanging upside down from a branch and going totally unnoticed by the security guard.

I don't think the inclusion of props would have called for any great subtlety - in fact, the more overtly placed, the better. In the scene by the bins, for instance, any number of suspicious objects could have been tossed in or fallen out.

I think you needed to be bolder - it was too under-stated.

I thought it was very good indeed, nice example of character and unreliable narrator humour.

Maybe it's a little to self indulgent and slow. But on the other hand its slowburn.
I liked the wrestler reveal.

Hey guys, this is all SO great. Thank you so much!
