nice work man, looks good!

the one thing I noticed right away was with all of the skiing/snowboarding jump shots, they were cut/began too early. They seemed to all start right when the subject was either at the end of the lip or already in the air, it would kinda catch me off guard for a second...just include a bit more of the in-run with some of the clips.

I am on the run, but will try to give a bit better critique later if I can!

Really crisp, what lenses were used?

I especially enjoyed 14-17 and 20-25.

Liked a lot really chill and relaxed but will agree that some jump shot should have left going a little longer but besides that i have no complaints really enjoyed it

holy shit, amazing work dude. so crazy how much you've progressed.

only complain is that the ending didn't feel very conclusive.

i also saw you shot it with the nikon d60, but i've previously heard from other people that the d60 does NOT shoot video.

my apologies if this is a noob question but does it or does it not? or is there some sort of attachment you can buy that will let you shoot video with it?

fuck haha read it wrong, just realized you shot this with a CANON 60D

disregard this, and instead hit me with your opinions on your canon 60d. is it a good camera for a beginner or should i buy a cheaper one instead? is it complicated to use?

Ya know , now that I go through and look at them all, I think the only one I remember using it for sure in is the feet on the train tracks at around :40. Its a great lens, I dont use it as much as I could. Mostly just for some of the narrative work I do like with closeups, and over the shoulder conversation shots, that type of stuff.

Thanks man I really appreciate that!

And I can see that with the ending, I tried several different ways to end it and actually got kinda frustrated. I ended up deciding that the guy rolling off into sunset transition would work but yeah.. next time.

Haha thanks, whats happening is, The shot before the guy gapping over the stairs and railing, This dude does a boneless thing into that big banked slope. The shot at 1:42 is him coming back up the other side and doing a varial or inward heelflip i think is what that trick is haha.

Very sick! Loved almost all shots! The one I didn't really like was the statue of Jesus. Colors were quite different than in the other shots and his face was blocked by the branches.

Keep up the good work man, really liked it! Lovely flow
