Critique my (short) edit....+k for responses

• music was ok

• colour kept changing throughout

• black flashes / interruptions by a black screen, bad, i didn't like that

• skiing was all pretty slow, but i guess you can't change that

 
yea the shots that were not from the park were really dark compared to the others. Just bump up the exposure a little bit and itll look alot better
 
-shaky footage-don't shoot in auto, the colours are so different in each spot

-shots weren't moving = boring footy

-good tricks

-NEVER CUT TO BLACK
 
idk man I would disagree.sometimes it can be used really nicely. I think it was a bit overused here though
 
-suppeerr shaky -cutting to black was reallly anooying

-make sure you connect all your clips

-after 0:30 when you started using the cross dislove transitions it got much better and easy to watch

 
"shots weren't moving=boring footy" That's bullshit. You can make static shots work.

"Never cut to black" Also bullshit. OP did it wayyy too much in his video but cuts to black can still work in edits.
 
I thought the cut to black effect was a bit over used and the slowmotion was a bit choppy, but other than that you are on the right track.
 
i take it back, first thing came out wrong.shaky, panning with your hands from the same spot each time = boring footy

static tripod, uwa, or fish angles can work, but not from the same location a few tricks in a row.

also, cutting to black is classic over editing, looks shit almost always. unless you're spectacular (homepage edits) or a pro, you will fuck it up, and make it look like a crappy skate vid.
 
and thanks for responses. most of my filming was during a short period of time where my skis were being mounted, also our park is very small currently so i really think follow cam would get me 1/4th of the shots i have.

thanks again
 
no when he says film in auto he means the auto setting because it will consistently change white balance exposure and shutter speed. for most of this edit i filmed at 1/250 second aperture f/9 or f/11 with automatic ISO. generally worked really well for me.https://www.newschoolers.com/membervideo/596071.0/SNP-Early-Season-Edit-2013?s=173780&t=2&o=8
