Just wrapped up an edit of my favorite shots from Windells this summer and would love feedback on it.

I realize the song is a bit out there and some of you might hate it, but this edit was just for fun and I've been wanting to use it for a long time.

As I said, critiques would be appreciated

That was beautiful! The sliding shots really make the difference.

One note: the audio during the last jump montage dipped when the ski sounds came in. I ran into this issue at one point, where some dynamic audio filter was applied in compressor (I think that's what you use?). The filter set a threshold and then when any audio peaked, the entire track would get softer. I'm not sure whether this was intentional or not on your end. Either way, it stuck out a lot to me while watching.

Everything else was great!

Thanks! It was not intentional, I was trying to figure out why that was happening. It automatically applies the filter?

I'm not entirely sure. I just remember going back into Compressor trying to figure out what was happening. Ultimately, I think there was a box checked under the filters tab for audio. I ended up re-compressing the video a few different times and it ultimately went away.

Sorry I can't be of more help, I was just as confused when it happened. The problem disappeared as randomly as it appeared at the time...

It does make sense because I know that Cam's landing on the 2 on 4 off (when the song level drops the first time) was peaking for sure, but it sounded about right to me so I left it.
