Deception

The characters are possibly the best from a short film made by Budget Media. George Groziers performance as Jayden Harper is his best performance in a short film yet. The others characters are alright. Simon could've had more development as a whole. The chief and Lesley aren't the greatest characters ever but they do the job. Compared to other short films directed by Jack Vickers this can be seen as the best but also the weakest depending on what you like. For the overall structure and characters this great. But compared to the editing and soundtrack of the Project Thorn films this seems to lack.

Jayden Harper is by far the best character George Grozier has played. His performance brings the character to life. It's nice to have a complex character in a budget short film. The other characters are fine but needed more depth. Especially Joshua Foxons character Simon. His characters idea was good but needed more backstory to make him stand out more. The soundtrack is ok but doesn't fit some of the scenes. The opening is rushed but sets up the whole short film so it works. I just wish this was longer. Act 3 definitely feels rushed compared to the previous acts. But overall this is a very production.
