Entry Description

The story of the Bagpipes and Bonfire Autumn Celebration that focuses on the Scottish heritage of the area.

Judge 1

Positives: Beautiful camera work and shot choice. Using nat-sound to tell the story worked really well for this.

Improvements: More soundbites to better explain what this tradition is all about. Many of the shots were of the same subject. Try to find the little things as well as the big picture to help enhance the sense of scale.

Judge 2

Positives: This video was shot and edited flawlessly. The crowd reaction captured the feel of the audience. The shots of the parachuter were eyee catching.

Improvements: Although I felt the video was descriptive alone, it could have used some narration through voice over. The bagpipe audio was a bit hot at times.

Judge 3

Positives: VERY well shot... great eye for catching light in shots and movement! This piece kept my attention the entire time visually.

Improvements: I felt I could have used some soundbytes from someone or some vocal element to help explain what was happening and when. For instance, the bonfire at the end - I wasn't sure the meaning behind it.
