Hi M&A,

Just made an edit I felt I did a pretty good job on in the aspects of filming and post production. Just looking for some ideas and criticism on what I should do differently. I know my colors are a little weird, but other than that let me know what you guys think about the filming and editing.

I think the filming and editing was great! One thing I noticed a little bit of was the snow was a little blown out in like two shots, just a tad bit overexposed. Thought it was great though!

I felt that some of your shots didnt match with white balance and color tone. Other than that I liked it. good work. really stable and had good flow. maybe explore a couple different angles on some of those rails.

Yeah I used a few different tones on magic bullet thinking it would help, but after uploading it I didnt like it as much.

perfect length, but two things one as they already said the cc was off between shots, and two i personally like a variety of shots, usually i like closer tighter shots so close ups are your friend in my opinion at least

also the better the people ur filming are the better ur filming looks

I liked it, maybe you use a little bit less slow motion, but still flowed really well with the song... also, if possible try to shoot when the suns out, you will need to worry much less about color correcting it... but sometimes this isnt possible, i know the sun is rarely out when i shred in michigan... but super fun to watch and solid riding, overall solid edit.

yeah the colors were weird, and the other thing i noticed was that the twixtor in the first shot morphed the fuck out of the lift tower. not your fault but i wouldnt have used that shot.
