Like everyone is, I made the switch to a DSLR. Im hoping to get some feedback on my latest edit, it's pretty short, and not too good. At some points it's jumpy I'm wondering if it happens cause I messed up my keyframe rates exporting. Also just any constructive crit and advice would be great.

That was actually really sick, I really liked it.

One thing you might want to do is more color grading to really get the most out of your camera (brighten it up a little, change the colors to give the shots a unique look, etc.)

You should also never show a dolly movement starting or stopping within a shot, at least for the type of shots you were doing. The shots should start and end with camera movement.

Other than that, you did a great job with it.

^Thanks a ton man. Yeah I never knew about that with dolly movements for sure will do it next time. As for grading I've been trying to find a torrent of magic bullet. I saw some of your edits you shot with your T2i and the colours looked soo good. I edit with FCE so there isnt 3 way Colour Correction.

thanks dog, yea magic bullet is amazing. the dolly thing isn't like a rule you have to follow all the time obviously but when the viewer can tell the camera starts/stops moving, it makes them very aware that they are watching a video and that somebody was moving the camera.
