Alright first things first. Imo I really didn't like the music at all. It didn't really fit into the edit at all. I mean a 35 second trampoline edit is not enough, thats enough for a really small trailer or something. Just wait and get some more footy before making an edit for it. Although I really did like some of the angles you did the camera from. They were pretty creative, but you jumped from angle to angle on most the the tricks. Try and limit it to just 1 or 2 at most during the edit. Try not and use the same thing over and over again. Maybe color grading it could've helped also, but not unnecessary. And lastly, download magic lantern onto your T2i. It helps a lot. Hope you understood this!

I do have ML and love it! also yes when i updated my MBP to mountail lion i didnt backup my hard drive and lost FCP and last night was bored so during i decided to try out my new ML on my T3i and got took two clips and decided i would put them together but only had Imovie to use, this isnt something that is considered a full edit, i just was bored and i love making short edits, i think that i should of had me landing the double at the end and more tricks on the tramp but i havent landed the double yet, and believe me a better edit will come when i get a new trampoline and have my friends jump me, so i get some more air. I think the song fits good, but everyone has their opinion and thank you very much for yours, much appreciated!!!

P.S. just downloaded FCP again and i have 16gb or ram that just got delivered to my house and when i get home on thursday i will be installing and making many more edits without the frustratuon of rendering and such!!

Nice job with the cutting, song didn't fit too well, and some colour-correction would have made it ore eye-catching!
