Great stuff, Cody. I actually buy that as a movie trailer.
I know nothing about this game's plot, but now i sort of do! That was fun.

You inspired me to write some (inside) jokes:

Notes from the studio execs just came in:

- First the title: Mirror's Edge: Catalyst? Catalyst for what? Also, that's too much of an SAT word for our target demo. Change. Our focus groups show "Edward Snowden's Prism" polling well.

- Not sure about asian lead. See if ScarJo is available and recast/reshoot. We like the look though, so maybe add a part of a math tutor or bad cab driver for this girl (note from PIC: HA! CABBIE YES)

- These stunts seem very Jackie Chan. Check with legal to make sure not copyrighted. Also saw that crane in Bond film. Reshoot that scene on an airplane wing instead; way more intense!

- Explosions.

- What did she steal? Some floor lint? Add one of those matrix hacking screens or something. You do computers, make it look cool like Mission Impossible hacking, not dumb like Mr. Robot.

- Need to see surprise cameo talent in trailer.

- Focus groups wanted to know if she was broken or not. Need to clear this up in trailer.

- Not sure right fade timing on 3rd one. Try 2 frames slower.

- Contract says we need 12 seconds of Mountain Dew placement in trailer. Please fix.

- Overall too bright. See if you can't darken the whole thing and give it that Zach Snyder feel. Also Christopher Nolan. Also Vin Diesel.

- Think I saw lip-flap during combat sequence. Fix.

- Need to add lots of tats to girl to make convict story believable. Use half of gfx budget for this. (note from PIC: NECK TATS)

- Need new cuts by 6pm friday so we can view Monday, thx.

I'm sure you've seen worse :)
