So I've noticed a growing number of critique threads popping up in M&A. I've always wanted an educated critique of my work and now that I have a real camera and computer I feel I can start reaching my full potential. Anyways, here it is.



Filmed with a 60D and Tamron 17-50 2.8 NON-VC and edited with FCP X.

Well I thought the filming was pretty good. Other than when you panned down as the jumpers jupmed into the water, (you were standing on the bridge ledge or something) you could've starightened those out so you werent panning down diagnoly because it looked a bit awkward. You should also try some color correction/grading. Other than that I liked the song and filming for the most part was good.

Sorry for the spelling errors.

Thanks man. Those shots were actually hand held. I had to lean out the holes in the side of the bridge and use the flippy screen on the 60D to get the framing right. I appreciate the critique.

I thought you did pretty well with that given the fact that you were very limited with angles (due to way the bridge was built and the size of the river). I think the "color correction" looked pretty good but maybe touch it up with a little "color grading." other than that song and editing to it was good
