Thanks!!

The early ones my buddy filmed and edited himself. Out recent ones we have filmed together and I'm learning to edit.

 

Some members of the Mid Atlantic community will be having a feature video made soon! Filming to occur October 12th. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for trailers and teaser info. I will also share the video(s) on this page.

So, who's next??

 

Sorry, but your trailer didn't entice me. Too many repetitive shots, too slow, no story line. I just didn't get it. Over use of the fade to black. Fade to black is a conclusion of a story, or segment, not a transition to be used often.

 

I appreciate the critique, but then again it is a trailer. And the shots are all from a spur of the moment event. It's not like this was a full planned day of shooting. The trailer video really was nothing more than an exercise to help me training on the camera, and then just something to put together because we had the footage.

But as I said I really appreciate the critique and ill be sure to forward this to my partner.

Ps. What did u think of the other video?

 

I went back to the full length video and found the same issues. I could only stay with it for 2:01 minutes. Fade to black used far too often. Fades and dissolves serve a purpose. Whomever is doing the shooting and editing needs to read an old book called Today's Video. The equipment in the book will be out of date, but the production techniques are invaluable. Look for a Home Editing class nearby and learn to keep your non-full length feature films to 5 minutes or less. You need to tell a story. Try watching it without sound and see what the pictures tell the viewer. Video production may seem easy, but to tell a good story in a limited time takes a lot of planning and post production editing work. Watch TV for the editing cuts. You'll see a lot of straight cuts in most productions. Watch the length of scenes and how scenes are transitioned. Limit your fades to black to end a story line, or just at the end of the production. Fade to black tells me the story is over. The first two minutes I had to fight to stay awake. I didn't have any interest after that time. What story where you trying to tell? What makes your story interesting to someone else?
