New edit, looking for feedback

This edit was really well done. there isnt really a problem with it at all. there are a few nitpicky things that could be polished, but overall this was great!

some of the nitpicky things:
- some of the shots were shaky (the intro scene and the train was especially bad, b roll shot at 1:30, some of the pans following skiers could have been smoother as well)

do you bring some form of rig with you (tripod etc) or is it all free holding of the camera? if you dont maybe consider a hi hat (mini tripod) they are pretty small and can support a decent head as well as the weight of a good camera.

- i wasnt really feeling the second set of time lapses at 1:13 - not because they were bad, they were actually really good! just because the first set of timelapses that you included were soo good that the second set seemed kind of lack luster in comparison, and it seemed like you were overusing them. perhaps replace them with some other forms of b roll (shot of snow falling, slide past snowy branch, etc)

now on to some of the things that i really liked:
- color grading was awesome! really fit the edit!
- i liked the zoomming out while the skier was skiing towards the camera in some shots - nice and smooth. what camera do you film with? that looked abnormally smooth for a dslr (although i could be wrong, and if i am wrong great job!)

hopefully this helps, great edit keep it up!

Thanks this is all really good! I didn't use a tripod for most of the shots and I agree that it would have helped a lot to have one with me. You were right about the zoom shots. All of them were shot on a TM700 (camcorder) which allowed a much smoother zoom. The rest was shot on a t3i.

Thanks again!

colours were on point for sure. I really liked the grading and the timelapses. props man!

Looks like you guys found some awesome snow. Also, awesome time lapses and the grading was really well done.

Some things I noticed:
-The aperture clicks were annoying. Notice at :29 how it jumps from lighter to darker all of a sudden? Set yourself up with a constant aperture. Never change this mid-shot.
-The intro started out awesome. I loved the composition of the train track shot but I think you cut away too quickly. Either let that shot breathe longer or get rid of it all together.
-You definitely had some frame rate issues on some of the slow motion shots. If you ever slow a shot down and it becomes choppy or "stuttery," speed that bad boy back up. It's not going to work.

Overall this was really good dude. You have a lot of the components here to create an awesome edit but you're still missing a few things. When editing, try and tell a story. Never forget to establish your characters. Always think about "why" you're putting a shot in at a certain point. Keep filming and editing dude, and feel free to PM me with any questions.

Absolutely loved the vibe of this dude, pink floyd and pow is the perfect combo! and that grading! Colors were superb, as these guys have already stated, the first timelapses were killer but the second round just threw me off, there was too many of them, I usually dig edits with a nice build up, and that train shot was a little short but all in all the editing was nice and mellow, footage looked good, watch the choppy slow mo though! nice work, hope to see more!

Props on the musical choice and the overall vibe of the edit, the result is awesome! Others pretty much pointed everything that could be worked on, IMO you could've desaturate the colors on that filmburn at 2:14 so that it matches the overall color tone of the edit but that's some super picky stuff, overall good job!

I made this while I was home for christmas break. I know there are some issues like the frame rate dropping at times (I still don't know why it did this as the clips were slowed from 60fps by 40% so they should have come out at 24). Looking back at it myself, I can also see that there was too much slow motion. I think I did this because the song is very slow.

Anyway, feedback would be great. +k to good responses.

yo what camera do u have?

lildiceyyo what camera do u have?

A t3i and a panasonic tm700.

I don't know if this is just me be but, I got really bored like half way through. I think there was too much slow motion or something. Also some shots it's hard to even see the skier because he was too far out.

Other than that the coloring was pretty good along with the time lapses. It was a good edit, just some more creative shots would of caught my attention a little more.
