  • 4/8 9:10 am - Your video demonstrates good lighting and effective use of text to explain the steps. The multiple camera angles are well-utilized, adding visual interest. However, ensure your audio is consistent and that your dialogue is not mono. The cool animation illustrating the process of cooking the curd is a creative and helpful touch.
  • 3/1 7:54 am - Good use of music and the Close-Up camera shot at the beginning of the video to catch the viewer's attention. Good use of text throughout the video. Good use of fast motion. Voice-overs are well written. Good use of high angle camera shots. Keep producing more videos.
  • 3/1 7:29 am - Lots of creative camera angles. I appreciate you dropping the music levels down when you are talking (and back up when you're not), but it could be a little louder behind you. Look at your meters. Background music behind your voice should be between -18 and -24, and I am thinking you are below that because it is hard to hear. Your presentation, voiceover, script and on screen graphics (including the animation) add to your video. Your lighting is also very well done, which given you did this in a kitchen is impressive as they are typically hard to shoot in. Very well done!

Positives: Overall, the video is very dynamic and engaging. The opening shot of the lemon being squeezed is engaging and has a unique perspective. The use of movement helps to keep the viewer engaged. The video has a fantastic variety of angles and shot sizes. The bright lighting lets the viewer see what is happening and makes the lemon bars look delicious.

Improvements: The audio levels (especially keeping the voice over audible over the music), but be careful when stitching different lines of dialogue together. The difference in background noise in different rooms can be noticed when cutting these together. While explained well, the explanation of what a water bath is takes away a little from the established pace. This section could be trimmed down.

Positives: Yummy! Nice lighting throughout. Great animation with the boiling water. Nice POT shots. Good variety of shots for visual interest.

Improvements: Why not explain making the zest? Use ducking to fade the music when you speak. It's jarring to have it pop in and out. Consistency cutting the lemon bars. Looks like you mixed up a few shots.
