Smile Would LOVE some opinions

Hey everyone =)

Basically a friend and I are writing and directing the pilot episode of an Australian teenage drama at the moment, called "The Flip". We've had some interest from production companies here and will be pitching it to the ABC in January. We've uploaded a few promo clips (not to be used in the pilot) just to give people a taste of the characters.

If I were to pitch it to you right now... it's East Sydney and West Sydney, the street kids and the upper class... and how they come together through relationships, challenging social expectations and perceptions.

I'd LOVE some comments/feedback (be gentle) on the promo videos/characters and any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Not being facetious, but there's an "upper class" in Australia?

Upper Class Down Under - just means rich.

The actors look convincing... not that I know how Australian teens act.

Tone down on the frenetic, five-cuts-a-second, MTV style editing though. It's really obtrusive.

Looks quite good. I agree that the jumpcuts are annoying though.
