thefilmchick posted on 03.12. at 02:14 Good job! You used a lot of interesting clips and had a good sense of pace, particularly on the slower pars. As Julia said, the song was quite fitting for Ben. It kept my attention throughout, which for a video that's closing in on five minutes is no mean feat.
You may get more replies if you upload the video to YouTube or Namaste Nikki Town, since I know I was surprised that it was just available via download, not streaming.
A couple of minor details: I thought that the tempo changes were a bit underutilized. When the crunchy guitar sets in and the tempo and volume pick up, I was expecting that to be acknowledged with an effect or transition, and it wasn't. Also, I caught some talky clips throughout -- a trick to eliminate those is either a) pan/crop or b) slow down the footage so you don't have the talking, and apply a zoom in with pan/crop so that there still is motion to the shot and it doesn't look slow motion. Hope that helps.
Again, well done!
