Hey please watch this video and let me know what you think. you cant get better at editing without some critics pointing out your flaws.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGXNFo4Hwl0
Editing wise, you should have taken out like 5 or six shots that were poorly done. The one where the guy on the tramp is jumping behind the tree and you can't see shit is irritating.
Anyway, it takes a lot of confidence to post this on a public forum, especially one like newschoolers and I appreciate that. Thanks for letting me in on your summer
I felt like it had a bit too much filler. Don't be afraid to make am edit shorter than the song, you can always find a way to cut the song. Other than that I thought it was good!
I would cut out a lot of the attempted artsy close-up transition shots. Unless you have a nicer camera with more selective focus, they look somewhat silly.
