mainly looking to re-edit this with smoother cuts and better colour correction. i want to try and make all the shots flow together better, even though they were shot on differant cameras.

good/bad things and any general critiques would be awesome!

Thanks!

not terrible but, Choose a different song, that song does not fit that edit. when you pick a new song edit to the way the song flows. put cuts and slow motion or faster motion shots where they fit in the song. also don't put to many words in your video and if you do keep them discreet. you did say you were going to color correct, thats good. the color needs some "correcting". don't take this too hard I'm just trying to help. your edit is alright but I'm trying to help you make it better.
keep it up!

I had its good parts and bad parts, but if I were you i'd...

1.Get better stablization, the whole thing was shakey

2. Get more of a story at the start, not just random half a second, shots.

3. Burn the lens at 0:50, I hate those shity fisheyes like that.

4.Get out there and shot man! youl'l start to get better and better every edit!

meh it was ok
things to fix

to many cut scenes for that slow of a song
bad color
frame rate or shutter speed was off ( idk if u can fix this depends on camera, go pros can fix it if thats what your using which i assume)
stabilization needs fixed
and cheesy title font and design

but other than that it was a decent edit

in the beginning editing was a little jerky and some color correction needed but overall pretty rad

Wow guys, this is awesome! This is why I love NS so much :).

I think I get what you guys are saying about the pacing and everything, definitely going to try to play with that, along with the colour.

Also going to add a more interesting intro, thanks for the idea.

When he said the shutter speed was off, did it mean having different clips in different shutter speeds? (shifting from 30fps to 60fps)?
