Hi,

I'm very new on this site. I always liked to take videos of my kids and sharing them with my foreign family members. Lately my community is encouraging me to go out and do it for others too.
I'm a stay at home mommy of 4 little kids between ages of 9monts and 7yrs. I have very little time to learn every day, but I think this one came out pretty decent.
Please watch it and let me know what you think and what you can advice to me!

Good job. I really don't have any thing bad to say.

I'm wondering thou if could of added a little of the live audio to draw the viewer in?

Keep up the good work.

I have my second bar-mitzvah in Oct.

Very good job Detti ! you've been doing this how long :) Definitely better than the majority of the birthday videos i've seen in my lifetime. Never really seen or filmed a barmitzvah so i don't know what to expect, but you captured the moment really well which is the real deal in videography...

Absolutely pristine Detti!!!

I have been doing weddings for years now and last week booked a barmitzvah!! My first ever so your clip has been really helpful in knowing what I'm expected to shoot...the lady mentioned the traditional dancing and now, thanks to you, I can see what it's like!!!

With mine they are not doing any "getting ready" video at all, just filming the reheasal in the Synagogue (you are not allowed to film the real thing) and then I'm doing the celebrations afterwards complete with the traditional dancing, speeches and then they will revert to Westernised dancing after 10pm

Keep up the good work!!

Chris
