• 3/4 12:42 pm - Exceptional camerawork. Creative, clever concept and execution. Love the smooth camera panning at the poker table. Variety of shots, camera angles, locations, camera movement etc. Definitely a top music video.

Judge 1

Positives: Some wonderfully disturbing imagery. Dynamic and professional camera movement. Super interesting locations. Very nice performances.

Improvements: Some of the coverage didn't match the professionalism of most of the other footage (namely the car scene).

Positives: first up, your video is better than the bug filled original. I enjoyed this very much. The visuals were haunting and scary yet you were totally drawn into the story and each character. The camera moved really well within the spaces you shot at. The card game in particular. The speed and pacing of the camera movement and the editing make a bunch of different shots stand out

Improvements: Could have used another location or substorm to break things up a little better. The story was clear but you kept going back to the same familiar visuals. Not a terrible thing, just an area you could have went even further. Minor sync issues throughout. Not too distracting though.

Judge 3

Positives: The creepy atmosphere is fairly consistent, and really comes together in certain setups, like the poker scene. Your choreography, camera work, lighting and performance all shine there and were bewitching! Some nice editorial as well in cutting between the different setups.

Improvements: The scenes of the conflicts with lovers were a bit less special, but I suppose they needed to be more in the real world. Even so, they could have been a little more stylized and I found them removing the spell that the more magical scenes created. The bloody scene seemed a little over-the-top. I guess she killed them all? Wasn't sure, and fake blood is always a tricky place to tread.
