whoa! that was a trailer! - fantastic imagery, the music was menacing, impending, the whole clip was an intense taste of something to come - I'm gobsmacked!

there was a shot of the church at 1:14 that had a distinct vignette - it stood out more than I expected

apart from that it was fairly average :-)

I think I need a cuppa tea and a good lie down now

Hi Paul,

"I think I need a cuppa tea and a good lie down now"

Thank you for your comments, have you recovered now!,lol.....

Seriously, thats what I was hoping to achieve on this particular edit.

Now I just have to get on and edit the whole thing...motivation....it's warm outside....too nice to be stuck indoors by a computer editing.....

Cheers,

I really like your trailer, especially the dancing shots. Being Greek myself I know how important is the dancing part (especially the traditional ones, zeimpekiko, kalamatiano, and tsifteteli) in the whole event. I am sure you enjoyed yourself while filming this wedding. When I film Greek weddings I also have a scotch now and then and sometimes I also dance a traditional dance ot two...

Hi Stelios,

Thx for your reply,

Wow!!!
A very distinctive work, nothing like I've seen before! (a second part)

A great first part, but the from around 1.20... cutting was top notch, put to a musical score...which was...should I say "TOO BIG" for the kind of content and storytelling context?
No doubt, will remember it for unusual approach in choice of the soundtrack, score.

Cheers!
