i beg you to critique this. I know its just a simple tripod edit but anything that will make me a better filmmaker helps alot. It was filmed with a t2i and 50mm 1.8, edited with premier.

k+ for ANY helpful advice

I would get rid of all the time between shots like at the beginning. Also try to have a variety of tricks in there if you're going to be hitting the same rail. Not to bad though

the cropping was kinda weird, also get more angles, makes it alot more interesting

also, a lot of people will probably disagree with this, but i would slow the clips down when they are just about to hit the rail. not a lot, just enough that it makes it look a little smoother. the run in was about the same time that they were on the rail, and each trick was too fast imo

also, change angles more, and maybe follow the riders from the tripod sometimes. consistent shots are good, but it was kinda annoying for the rider to be out of frame when he lands
