I can have it ready in half an hour to an hour, since my last one was this long:
Story Review:
Ok so, you told me to be hard! So, I will try my best, I found one little “Confusing” bit so far, and that was the first scene. Where he says something along the lines of: sir me … and you should use capitals and make it more clean. Example; Sir, me!?

And the place were in the montage of the city, they’re on a bride with lockets on the fences, people start popping up, and to fix that put all the places on one line using;

Example;
&TURTLE stands screen center AND TURTLE faces left AND GIGI spot 5.040 -65 143 AND GIGI faces right

Or something like that with all the characters separating them by AND.

Also, another thing is there isn’t much zoom, which would be ideal to make more things go on at the same time if that makes any sense?

Though that is very good.
Another thing I recommend is what not a lot of authors do, is every-time someone does a talking animation the person clicks onto the next bubble, but they continue talking, so I recommend after the bubble you should do a pose.

Example:

TURTLE (talk_neutral)
I’m so happy right now!

@TURTLE starts arms_crossed

Just so it doesn’t continue talking, and it improves the story quality. And another issue was when she was driving is was a few second before the characters appeared. And maybe make the characters bigger, and it also happens on the next scene for the car drive. And you need to go over the speech and use more punctuation, and also, when they’re at the new house and the dad says “Hero, you on’t know that”

You forgot the d on don’t.

And another issue with this scene is when they walk off-screen into the home, when the dad exits it’s still in zoom. And just a suggestion, when Hero is in her bedroom, when her dad calls her, she walks so I suggest she runs. Just for a bit of a change. And use the fade filter for the bit where she’s in bed at night and use;

@transition fade out white 4
Just so it looks a bit cleaner.

And instead of standing on her bed when she wakes, do her standing up on the floor. And one more thing about this scene, when her dad calls her use the narrator bubble:

NARRATOR (Dad)
|bold| Honey, wake up!

And some more effects, like the colour red and shake animation.
And I found one kinda big issue, where she is off-screen (After she comes out of the shower) for a while and it made me think if it was paused. So you might want to only do it for 2 beats.

And you can use my mirror overlay to add a reflection! Find it on my; Overlay & Background Sharing Thread on my profile.

And the last thing is on the end screen it says
“Any questions, concerns or comments may be said in Q&A”

I want to point out its not in the right place, you might need to reset zoom on place the speech bubble, and when it says “Any questions, concerns or comments may be said in Q&A” you missed the my in-between may be said in Q&A it should be, be said in my Q&A.

I hope you find this useful in some shape or form.
