Hi! I'm going to give you what I hope you'll view as good concrit. 
I was really excited when I saw this vid pop up, because I love this song and I knew it would be a good one for Lost. So, you chose a great song (IMHO) and showing the ups and downs of Lostie life is a fitting and good concept. You had a lot of great clip choices and I liked the slo-mo in parts. However, the clips were just far too long, and this is a song with fantastic beat use potential, and you didn't take advantage of that.
I see that you've posted eight videos in less than 40 days. That's a video every 4-5 days!!! My advice would be sloooow down! Quality is much more important that quantity, and when you really take the time to pour some heart and soul into the video, the end result is going really resonate with people. I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do when you really put some time into it! |

I agree with this. The Idea was great, but you need to take time to let your video work best with the song.

| I completely agree with eloramoon. When I saw this vid with this song I was expecting it to be epic because the song has such great beat use. I liked your general idea for this vid and I think the slow motion really works well, but I feel like it could have been amazing if you were patient with it. |
