Critique on summer edit?

[JibbaTheHutt]

i dont really know what this edit is. it isnt really a true representation of my summer, as i did almost 3 weeks of travelling/being at festivals where i didnt have my camera. so i spose more than anything it is a collection of shots i like from my summer.

I must say i grew less and less fond of this edit the more i worked on it, i found i was noticing more and more things that i didnt like about it ( maybe that is the case with everybody?) but i'd be interested to see what you guys thought of it solely from a filming/editing side of it. its still really a draft as i have one last camping trip with a few friends before they leave to uni/travelling.

watch in full screen please.

Nice man! I really liked the vibe and song choice. My only suggestion would be to shorten it a bit by removing some of the non action shots. I think you could cut one of the clips of the dog and your least favorite panning landscape shot.

i'm not sure if i could really shorten it without compromising the fit with the song. i kind of agree that some of the panning landscapes get pretty boring, and the only reason i left th shot of my dog is that she got super ill earlier in the year so it kind of holds a place in my heart.

but depending on what shots i can gte in the next week or so i might well switch it up abit to get some more variation through it.
