Comments: First thought after listening to it...What the hell just happened? At first it seemed like a mish-mash of SFX, music, and random voices. It took me three listens to get a loose grasp on what was happening. Here are some main points that need improvement- Acting was over-the-top... I got so lost in everything that was happening that I actually spaced outt he first time listening... everything was too loud which created a lot of clipping... when the shark(?) santa flipped out, the guy who screamed a couple of lines did that whisper scream which made it unbelieveable... diction was a bit sloppy. Some final thoughts- Don't rely on randomness and SFX to make your skit funnier or to make it sound better. It muddles everything. Rely on the voice. Some good points- I'd much rather have the over-the-top acting than monotone. Learn to tone it down a bit and get into a realistic character. This had the potential to be very funny. Again, cut back on the SFX and music, and becareful being so random. It can backfire.
