MUFFIN AND PIE cover image
Consistently amusing camera angles. Extremely expressive characters throughout. Mirrors what a lot a kids go through: competitiveness, sibling antagonism, an overly peppy Mom, detached Dad. Family reunion is full of cliches but it is all so broadly drawn and so over-the-top that it's hard for the protagonist to take herself, or her family seriously. Sound quality uneven, otherwise, good production qualities. Excellent sample of student work.
