Cloud Cover from PB&J Media on Vimeo.

1.This was my best edit so far... At least I think. Still looking for FEEDBACK though. Good Feedback is always appreciated on my end +K
2.I recently picked up a rode video mic w/ a dead cat. I filmed all my audio with dead cat on in the edit above. But when I was editing I noticed that even with the dead cat my audio was still a bit wishy washy when doing followcams. Any tips on better audio would be very helpful. Hell I might even be doing it wrong!

What do you mean by 'wishy washy" an also some shots were super shaky, you should work on that.

Pretty dope! Theres just a few things you might want to work on:
- for the tripod shots, try and have one fluid/smooth movement throughout the whole shot or just make the movement more smooth.
- work on the stabilization for the follow cams.
- when you were on the knuckle of the jumps you might want to zoom out a little more so that you can see the skiers whole body throughout the whole shot.
Keep up the good work!

I looked back at all my jump shots and i didn't really see any of them where you could see the whole skier? I am confused.

sorry for being unclear. for example the shot at 1:01 where he lands and the lower half of his body leaves the frame. thats what i was talking about. just a small thing i noticed a couple times while watching.
