After presenting my work for D&AD to my peers, I received feedback on what worked well, and what could be improved.
I found that my use of multiple software (Adobe Animate, Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro), although laborious, works in making the scene immersive.
I also found that the scary baby, might not be as inappropriate for the audience as I thought.
My peers also confirmed with me that the angry pacing to and fro looks fine as it is, but might need improving if I have time.
I have also reconsidered how effective the name "Hugathon" is in conveying it's message. "Hug day" and "Hug Festival" have been suggested.
