  • 4/25 7:46 pm - STORY: I really like how this goes around to different clubs and groups throughout your school! You provide that information in a great way with the camera shots you include! SOUND: Your music bed is at a great level! I think you do a great job mixing in all the different songs that you use! CAMERA:You do a really great job framing the dancers during their routines. It would be nice to get some close ups of the poms and dancers during that part of the video. At 1:38 we get a weird motion when panning back to the left. Make sure that you pan in a smooth motion! Also, if you don’t get a shot right the first time, don’t be afraid to get another take! LIGHTING: I think you do a good job with lighting! If you have access to lights you can always elevate your shots by throwing light onto walls in the background to create some depth and separation. One thing I will say is that at 2:53, the faces are a little overexposed. Something that could come in handy is a diffuser. You could have someone hold it (or tape it) right in front of the light on the ceiling so that the light spreads out more EDITING: I think you do a great job pacing the clips to each specific song! That is difficult! One thing that felt off was the very beginning. When I started watching your video I thought it would be more of a Q and A style video. It could help to have a title card that transitions into the opening shot or maybe we hear the audio from the open under the clubs that we see later in your video. When we cut to this shot at 0:45 we should already see the action happening. Instead, I would start this clip at 0:46 when the camera starts panning up. Same thing with 0:56. Start this when the camera starts panning up at 0:57. Really clever edit at 1:54!
