Tom Daigon Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) Hello guys, Just finished cutting my first reel. I would really appreciate it if I can get some feedback. http://vimeo.com/10944779 Thanks, Yoshi Hi Yoshi. Very nice looking reel. Cool music too. I personally might use something a little more dramatic and not as light to accentuate the strength of your work Here are my thoughts. I think overall I would move some stuff at the end to earlier in the reel to make sure it is seen. Always start strong. Who knows how long they may watch it. 0:00 Thats a fun open 0:05 Titles are clean and have nice movement 0:11 OK shot 0:15 Same kind with more people in shot 0:20 Same kind with wipe at end 0:25 Nice push 0:32 I would lose this shot. It doesnt broaden on what we have seen so far. 0:38 Another nice push 0:45 Great circle. I would be tempted to place this earlier 0:48 Adds nothing for me. I would lose this shot. 0:32 Nice 2 shot circle 0:56 Zombie cu doesnt say steadicam move to me 1:00 OK reveal of group 1:10 OK group to single follow 1:22 So short with minimal move. It doesnt read to me 1:24 - 1:34 Nice music video sequence. Maybe earlier? 1:35 Nice follow to OTS 2 shot. I might be tempted to move this earlier 1:50 - 2:05 Great running. I think this should also be earlier to show off your versatility and skills I hope this helps. Edited April 15, 2010 by Tom Daigon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Daigon Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 One last thought Yoshi. I think the length of 2:12 or so works very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
