Nice video I really enjoyed that. You chose many good clips and paced them well with the song. Good work!

I love that song! I never knew it was by Staind, and I never heard a song that I liked that was by Staind (No offense to Staind). I love the video, too. One thing that I disliked about the end - "Skate Rocks. Remember That." Jate Rocks, Remember that. Don't wanna sound offensive or mean or anything like that, but Jack deserves Kate more than Sawyer. No offense. Love the song, again!

That was really promising fore a first video, awesome job!

I loved how all the scenes you picked actually had a point to them, and were'nt just picked because they fit some lyric (like showing a picture of night to fit "night", etc

it happens a lot

) and you told Sawyer's story really well. Keep it up and your vids should be here in no time

Things I'd watch out for if I were you:
-random clips: we can tell when you put something in just to fit the spot. There were a few in here, but mrst were really thoughtful, which was awesome! Just watch out.
-length: making a song shorter so the vid doesn't get boring isn't a crime.
-originality: with something really different in the video, you could kick ass.
-climax: you need some part of the video that just makes the viewer say "wow", somethign to build it all up to. Try to find a song that does this.
-beat use: see "climax", as this usually helps it a lot

Hopefully I wasn't intruding with that advice, and hopefully it helps you with future vids. It's just that I saw some great talent here, and I hope you keep on improving!
