Hi everyone! I would like if somebody would review my story : Roommate Nightmare. IT tells about a girl whose parents pass away and she gets their house. Only problem is that the house feels too empty. I had a big cap between updating so I want to know if that is too noticeable.
So the story name is Roommate Nightmare and the author is Aleksandra18. The genre is romance/drama.

I just read your story. Generally I love the idea of it and canāt wait to see what you have in mind for future episodes. There were some parts that seemed maybe little too rushed. Like the party scene in episode 3. And I noticed that in episode 1 when Mother was ranting to Alana she was just staring at her. Of course that may have been what you wanted her to do, just stare but I feel like that slowly zooming on her face while her mom was ranting would have made that part more interesting. And I really enjoyed the Q&A in the end. I would have preferred the Q&A to be in maybe the third episode not the first. It just made me kinda confused. Overall I really enjoyed this story!

i had the QandA originally in all episodes. then i moved to episode 3 but then someone told me to put it back in episode 1 
. and which scene are you talking about? when Alana is sitting on the couch? or When the mother walks away? the party scene was a bitch rushed - but it was essential to the plot, thatās why i moved it so quickly.
& thank you!
I think it was just before she walked away. And your story only had these few small things that I noticed so donāt worry about them too much.

I just read this and I really liked it! You have used a lot of effort for small details and I think that is really great. Only thing I noticed was that in episode 3 when Main Char goes to the graveyard and there is a text effect, the reset missed | in the end so the word reset is showing and the text effect didnāt reset. I really think this is a great start for an interesting story.

Hi!
Ep 1.
I love how you started the story. There were a few grammar errors. Punctuation.
When you showed the crash site, I suggest panning the area first then have the MC walk on to the scene or run with a shocked expression and then she starts to cry.
So when you transitioned to this house. Pan first and then have her enter or you can add so seconds so it pans slowly. Like pan to zone 3 in 3 after she enters the scene.
The thought bubble where you give us the option to choose how to response. I think it is too far from the MC. Didnāt expect a choice so I really like that.
Also the scene where I was talking to Natalia. You keep panning from one side of the room to the next when we are talking in the living room. I suggesting that you put Natalia to sit in the couch in zone 3 and the stays in zone 1 couch. You can cut from zone 1 to zone 3 while they interact.

hi! this is your review! but before i start i wanted to let you know that this isnāt me being rude AT ALL! this is just my opinion on your story! please do not take it personally! iām just fulfilling a review! i hope this helps! and i cant wait to read your review for my story as well! 
Episode 1
- i donāt like to start the episode out with CC iād rather get to meet the characters first, and then get into the cc part. so that the cc eases into the story. but thatās just my opinion, you donāt have to change it!
-
episode writer grammar lesson 101: donāt mess up. iām obviously kidding lmao have you read my story!?!?! there are SO MANY grammatical errors okay hereās the thing. I donāt care like at all ab grammar. but there are SO MANY people who care SO MUCH about grammar. readers and writers alike. so, moral, just be sure youāre putting commas where they need to go, and periods where they need to go as well! youāre missing quite a few of those. also, there are a few typos, like āyou can forget this hole thingā when instead you should say āyou can forget this whole thingā punctuation is key!
- less narration. we as readers like to see these things happening. so yes, itāll be a lot of directing, but being able to watch these things happen without all of the narration will make the story much more interesting to watch.
- add sound! i didnāt have sound in my story because i didnāt want it, but youāll be amazed at how many people will tell you they read with the sound on, so you should use sound!
- why are we zoomed in on the couch during their convo at the houseā¦? directing mistake?
- you should use instant zooms more often. make it more realistic. so like &zoom on x y to 100% in 0 (0 being the amount of seconds, which is none, making it an instant zoom.)
- why are we soooooooooooo zoomed in on the floor?
- yeaā¦ weāre zoomed in on the floor for like 80% on the epā¦
- also, please lose all of the narration. it really does take the reader out of the story. and makes you lose the āim watching a movieā feel.
- this episode was very short.
- i like the flashback concept while the mc is in jail. very creative. but maybe, you could have her be telling the story to another cellmate instead of the audience, to make it more realistic. and then do the flashbacks. ya know? just an idea.
- i think there should be more character development of the mcā¦ we donāt really know her. and the first episode is where we really need to learn about the characters.
Episode 2
- refer to the cc note i made from earlier in this ep too.
- you should use sound.
- so when a character gets done talking they either keep talking (because its a looped animation) or they have this wacky expression on their face because they werenāt instructed to do something after their dialogue line. so be sure to add a &CHARACTER is idle_happy_loop animation or something like that to avoid this from happening. and to make sure theyāre ya knowā¦ breathing even when theyāre not talking.
- donāt add more than one line of dialogue to an animation (unless itās looped) otherwise, the character will be done speaking and weāll still be reading dialogue lines. when you break up the lines, break up the animations as well.
- if you ever need help with grammar or words to use or anything like that, you should check out grammarly.com
- refer to my zoom note i made earlier here too.
- why is the bff walking backward to the table?
- why is the mc not looking at her bff when theyāre having a conversation before they sit down?
- (this note is specifically directed at the opening club scene, but is also a note for other places in your script as well.) use the ā&ā command more often. especially with animations. because when you use ā@ā and itās not a directing command, the script will wait for this to happen before it does something else. but if you use ā&ā then it will do multiple commands at once. so for example: &CHARACTER is idle_happy_loop is much better than using @CHARACTER is idle_happy_loop
- dylan walks backwards into frameā¦
- when all the characters are in the club scene the spot directing is a bit off, because the bff (forgot her name) is standing directly in front of natalia, so we cant see her. try redoing that a bit.
- the directing in the scene outside of the club is a bit strangeā¦ like anna is standing across the screen from the mc, and then sheās talking to her facing the wrong way, and then they go and hugā¦ iām a bit confused.
- also, what is happeningā¦ i-
- i feel like episode 1 and episode 2 should be combinedā¦
- donāt narrate that she told us ab her parents. show us with dialogue. also, very strange place to have this serious of a convo.
Overall Thoughts
Okay! Hi!
This isnāt going to be very in-depth like I wouldāve wanted, but I have to go soon, so I canāt do a ton of explaining!!! But anyways. Your story has some potential! Okay so first. Plot. I feel like I can see where itās kind of going. Thereās not much happening yet, and I think itās because there has been no character development. We donāt know these people. So what I would suggest is to make episode 1 longer. Add some more character development. Maybe she could start the story off by getting arrested, and then we could see what sheās like in jail. And then maybe she makes a potential friend in jail, so she starts discussing how she got into jail with her, and then we get into the flashbacks. Just so that we could have some more character development. This would also, help with less narration, because you had quite a bit of that. All in all, the first episode is what makes the reader WANT to keep reading you story, so it has to be THE BEST! Next. Directing. So, directing wise, there were quite a few mistakes if Iām being honest. But thatās nothing that time and practice wont fix. In my opinion, watching Joseph Evansā YouTube tutorials are very beneficial! So you should try those out! Also, iād add cc to the story as we meet the characters, so that it transitions into the story smoothly. Ya know? Finally. Grammar. There were also quite a few grammatical errors in this story as well. Like missing punctuation, and misspelling words, or using the wrong words. But, then I went to your profile on the app and it said that you were from Finland! So, first off, Hi from america! And second off, I realize that English probably isnāt your first language. Which is totally fine! I think that you should totally check out grammarly. com and just copy and paste your script into the site! Itāll help for sure! Overall, I think youāve got a good foundation laid out so far. Just some more edits to your story, and youāll be on the right track! Iām also pleased that you have not used an authors outro, or intro so far! And that your story has potential! So yeah, I hope this helped you and I hope that you learned something! Thanks for letting me do this review!

Thank you for your review! I sometimes get really confused with English since my firts language is finnish and I also speak Swedish. For example the word whole is hela in swedish and koko in finnish. But thank you for the gammarly.com tip, will be using it a lot! Also the it actually makes a lot more sence if she speaks to sole friend or something and not just to the audience. But not sure if I should change that bc then people who are in chapter 9 would get confused. But I will definetely change the club scene. Again, thank you for your review!
