It was a nice song and nice clips, but neither fit each other. I suggest you watch some of these other music videos and learn from them how to make a trully awesome video! Then I'd love to see it!!!

So on your grading scale of 1 to 4, where do you think this video falls? _________________ I want to make videos like Charmax and LAURA4LAD when I grow up.

I'll just let you know that when this vid was reviewed by the Council Hobbes was the least enthusiastic about it. Everyone else loved it - which is why it stayed on the site! _________________

Well... it'd be a 3 because the clips aren't just a montage, and they have meaning, with the climax area of the sog at the emotional climax of the clips. Maybe even a 4 just because of the bonus points for being a Sun/Jin one. That being said, it wouldn't be the best of those classes. If it was a 3, it probably wouldn't have gotten in nowadays with the judging we're doing.... Unfortunately we really have to be harsh now... But it wouldn't get in mostly because it really needed engaging clips more often. There were times where I it was just screaming for a clip change to accentuate the song, and it didn't have one The part with Sun and Jin at Sun's father's house where Jin says how he got permission for instance: the climax of the song JUST hit through the middle of that, and I really wish it were accentuated more. I realise how you may have thought the clips were supposed to be giving that feeling already, and they probably would to someone who hasn't seen every episode of Lost 3-4 times but for myself, it doesn't really achieve an accentuation without a scene change. Even it was just to a close-up of Sun or anything, that would be enough for me. The rest of the song pretty much fit this pattern: clips just a tad too long for such a soulful, non-slow song. But the ending sections were really good, they fit the music fairly well, probably the best part of it, and I liked how you changed to the episode sound at the end of the song.
To improve, I just recommend cutting clips more often and overall just keeping more to the play of the song. Don't adapt the song to the clips, adapt the clips to the song!
Great choice of song though. |
