  • 4/23 9:51 pm - Nice camera work, editing, music selection and effects. Perfect length, Nice use of slow-mo and I really like the titles at the end. Very well produced.
  • 3/4 11:52 am - POSITIVES: Your edit integrated the clips with the music really well. Opening sequence does a great job of introducing the team, and then moves to game action. Great use of overlays/effects as well as sound effects. Smooth camerawork throughout; Slo-mo throughout worked well, too, trimming your clips to only the most interesting portion that created the greatest impact. I have no suggestions for IMPROVEMENT!
  • 2/18 1:18 pm - -Good pacing throughout -Nice use of effects -Would have been cool to see a stop/slow motion when the song said "pose" -Nice use of nat sound/cheers

Positives: The shots are edited to the music well. The special effects are used effectively without overwhelming the rest of the video.

Improvements: I would like to see a wider variety of shots. Many of them are medium shots, and throwing in some wide establishing shots and some super tight shots would change things up. I would like to see more of a narrative element. The B-Roll is shot well but doesn't tell me a story. It would be fun if you saw football players posing or doing a dance after a touchdown when the artist sings "pose" or instance.

Judge 2

Positives: You've got some great footage, nice tight shots. And you mixed some crowd shots in to show the energy at the game.

Improvements: Highlight footage is fine, but video shot specifically for this project helps bring the story together. It's hard to develop a cohesive story with just disjointed contest clips and upbeat music.

Judge 3

Positives: The student successfully captured diverse footage of students on the field and demonstrated strong editing skills.

Improvements: To enhance the promo further, the student could have incorporated ambient sound effects and crowd cheering. Adding more reaction shots to key moments, along with these audio elements, would have created a more dynamic and engaging viewing experience.
