  • 3/19 2:43 pm - Great video overall! While the camera shots were decent, you could include more extreme close-ups to clearly show specific details, such as where the pry bar goes on the duck head. Additionally, some additional lighting would help illuminate the shots inside the tire, as they were difficult to see. To ensure that each step you explain is captured, avoid relying solely on wide shots and include text for each step to provide a clear visual guide.
  • 2/28 9:08 pm - Great use of camera angles and different shot compositions. A couple of your close-ups were a little out of focus, but overall your camera work is solid, especially with some hard inside of the tire shots. Voiceover/script is good, but your audio was a little hot (music audio seemed mixed well). Editing and lighting was well done. Nice work overall on this video!
  • 2/28 3:56 pm - Voice-overs are well done. Good variety of different camera angles throughout the video. Good use of Close-Up camera shots. Music selection works well with the images you recorded. Great demonstration video. Keep producing more videos.

Positives: The video presents something the audience is likely unfamiliar with in a way that is easy to follow. The video is well paced and the visuals complement the voice over. Additionally, there is a wide variety of shots the show each step and keep the viewer engaged by presenting new visual information.

Improvements: While there is good use of close up shots, be careful when shooting into a darker space. It is difficult to see inside the tire at 1:24. Either bumping the exposure while not blowing out the background or using an additional light source would remedy this and make it easier to see what is being done. Be careful when punching in closer. The shot at 00:09 is a little soft, which makes it harder for the viewer to see what is happening.

Judge 2

Positives: -Thank you for illustrating, since most people aren't handy like you. -Editing is solid and shows what you need it to.

Improvements: -You probably need an intro to explain what you are doing; it was a little abrupt. -Lighting is OK.

Judge 3

Positives: Good work. I always wondered how they pop the tire on and off the wheel so easily. You did a nice job zooming in on each step as you mentioned it. I see now why I've been told a few times that a patch in the tread area is "good as new."

Improvements: Some extra light on the tire's inside to illuminate the puncture before rotating the tire down for the pair would have helped. Close-ups of the bristle brush and adhesive bottle to see exactly what they are. Also, sequence: Seems like the tire stem replacement should come before filling up with air,
