Hey Guys, I just put out a new edit that I filmed one day and I was just looking for some constructive criticism or things that I should do next time. Thanks

Was good! For a few of the shots it went on a bit too long so just cut it out a bit earlier.

Thanks guys! I really didnt spend any time color correcting, all I did was trying to somewhat match exposure for each shot.

pretty sick. some shots you could have taken out and it would still be sick and the very first part of the chairlift was kinda cool but also it was like kinda cheesy cuz they were like swinging I mean it was cool but it would have been better with like a bullweel or something but everything else was cool overall awesome edit

Looks good man, only a few things bugged me,

I'd add some contrast to the snow with colour correction if you can, it looked like one big white blob

There was a little too much broll for my taste, and some of it felt a little unnecessary

And like said above, try a few more camera angles, the follow cam got a bit boring.

But overall I reallly liked it!

Some of the B-roll felt awkward, and a lot of the rideaways were too long, other than that it was sick!

overall it was pretty solid. toward the end you could have done a better job timing landings up with the beat of the song to make it flow a little better. Also there were a couple clips where you hit 2 rails in the same clip. just cut out the space in between the two rails and it will be looking real nice.

Forsure color correction is needed. Really dark.

I thought the edit was pretty awesome overall. Personally what I would've liked to see a little more of would be More shots following you throughout the park instead of filming only one feature then cutting to a shot of the next. I would also suggest separating the jump shots more in the beginning of the vid. Like instead of: rail, jump, rail, jump I would suggest: rail rail jump rail etc. (which u seemed to do near the end of the vid. Solid vid overall tho! Random closing thought: I also noticed I have the same skis as you. I love em, they are super playful!

prety good edit, but something else that no one has touched on is audio. A lot of people skip out on this portion, or remove any of the ski sounds completely, but adding in good slaps and scrapes for rails and landings can really add another dimension to the edit. also, I would try to bring back some detail in the snow, and add a more stylized color correction to help create a certain vibe to match the song. overall though, good start
