Hey guys, just put together this video for shits yesterday. lighting wasn't the best, but I just went out and tried some new stuff. Shot the entire edit with my 17-50 trying out a ton of different focal lengths, just trying out some new stuff. I appreciate any critiques and comments. Thanks guys.

did you use some sort of digital image stabilization of the shot where toms sliding up to the entrance of the park?

I enjoyed a lot of the shots though, compared to your other edits. It seems you were shooting with a lens in between widest and furthest zoom?? the shot where the music began and toms just cruising a long the cat track was really nice for some reason.

those rails at the lower section of the park looked unreal- new additions or do people just not film them for some reason?

The only thing i would critique is I wasn't a huge fan of the shots through the tree. I know what you were trying to do with it, but it just didn't quite do it for me.

Yeah I was trying to decide whether I wanted that shot stabilized or not and left it stabilized, it just had some parts I didnt like I suppose, couldve gone either way.

Most shots were between 24mm and 35mm I shot some longer near 50mm too and some shots at 17mm too. Glad you're hyped on those shots.

Not too sure about your last comment, those rails have been there for a bit? I guess im confused on what you're trying to say.

Sorry, missed this one, I suppose I'm not exactly sure what you're asking? I have a shotgun mic and a deadcat and tweak around in post a little based on the shot/audio.

But seriously I thought that beginning was pretty cool, font was a bit weird, but still a good job.

Didn't watch the video as I don't have audio, so I'll wait till I do, watched a bit, was that with glidecam?

Also lol at how you call that bad lighting, come to scotland.

Hey hey, be nice, i roto'd that in about 10 minutes at 1am last night gimme a break. I was gonna fix it but I already was like 1/2 way through the upload, figured some of you guys might notice lol

I suck at fonts, I never pick good ones, im awful at good design shit like that ha. And i mean the lighting was flat, it was pretty bad, I usually would just bail on a day like that and wait for sun but it was a good chance to go out and try some new stuff and not care too much about the outcome.

Yeah, I had some ideas for that shot and it was just tough skiing through 6 inches of slush/pow and shoot that angle haha if it was groomed I wouldve gone wild haha

Felt it could have been a bit steadier on a few shots (sw 5 blunt for example). Would have bugged me more if I wasn't drooling at the skiing. I still can't understand that cork 3, fuck

Don't know what's wrong with the font, I rather liked it.
