  • 2/24 9:21 am - I really enjoyed the storytelling elements you revealed through your shots! I love the chemistry you share with the people in your video. I think the shots you have are edited nicely, and you keep the audience very engaged and interested! The only suggestions I would make are more technical. Your story is nice and relatable for the audience, but to really push for more emotional moments within the video, take some risks with shot types, lighting, pacing, etc. For instance, when you walk down the steps in your dress, maybe get a forward-facing shot of you walking down in slow motion. This is a big moment, so make us feel it! Nice work and keep up the passion you have!
  • 2/21 9:21 am - This music video impressively weaves a narrative thread, effectively telling a story that engages viewers from start to finish. The use of a variety of shots and the pacing of clips contribute to the video's dynamic and captivating nature. While the storytelling is commendable, there are opportunities to enhance the overall quality and dramatic impact of the video. Utilizing techniques such as depth of field and strategic lighting can elevate the visual aesthetics and add depth to the scenes. For instance, in the birthday cake scene, filming in a darker setting and relying on the candles as the primary source of lighting could create a more atmospheric and immersive experience, enhancing the richness of the moment. Despite these suggestions, it's clear that a significant amount of time and effort went into creating this video, and the passion of the creators shines through in every frame. The enjoyment and enthusiasm evident in the production process translate seamlessly onto the screen, making for an engaging and enjoyable viewing experience. Overall, this music video is a testament to the dedication and creativity of its creators. I applaud their efforts and look forward to witnessing their continued growth and innovation in future projects. Keep up the fantastic work!
