Cinematography

Entry Description

Compilation of Mike Pasternock's high school and personal projects from 2013; shot on a Canon T3i, music video on 6

Judge 1

Positives: I enjoyed some of the shot sequences involving people. Meantime, there was excellent composition and execution on the scenic shots.

Improvements: I'm a fan of seeing things in the context they were meant to be. I just watched a bunch of creative videography but saw nothing with original sound or original music. So I'm judging a bunch of shots that our mostly out of context. A stronger entry would be three unedited sequences from your best projects, original audio that you used for the projects.

Judge 2

Positives: Nice camera work. Very professional looking. Good job editing the shots to go with the music. I really liked your framing and movements.

Improvements: Some sound from the original productions could enhance the music video.

Judge 3

Positives: Good shooting. Good lighting

Improvements: Don't over use a technique. Slider rigs are neat but you can't always rely on having one. these shots are very nice but I would like to have seen a clip from one of your projects not just all your best individual clips.
