Aaron...

You had a great feeling throughout this video. I think the biggest thing that I caught was some focus issues. I loved your shot compositions. Your camera handle the receptions dance lights very well, in turn it gave you some great looking party footage. Good job!

Hi Aaron.

I think you have a lot of good potential.

I think a lot of your shots look too messy i.e. (focus issue, shaky, color issue etc)

However, I see some nice moments and some great storytelling effort in there.

So I think you need to improve the way you shoot in terms of composition, stability, color, audio, etc etc and keep on polishing your storytelling mindset.

Thanks for sharing

Thanks for the feedback! :)

I will definitely take your suggestions to heart. Like I mentioned, this was our first opportunity to use the glidecam and I obviously need a bit more practice with it.

As far as "composition, stability, color, audio, etc etc", were there any specific clips that come to mind that need work/attention to more than others?


Thanks again!

01:13: the color on that outdoor scene looks out of place compared to the other footage.

00:32: very shaky shot of the shoe. not sure if thats glidecam or not, but I wouldn't really put that footage in. same goes with all the glidecam shots, but I guess you can't help it :) but I do like the dance party glidecam shots, its rather shaky but full of energy and happiness. goes well with the song.

02:03 the bride doesn't have a very pleasant teeth, I would cut right before you close up on her profile

and lots and lots of focus issue.

Like I said before, I think you have great storytelling potential. keep it up :)
