I am looking for my new edit to be ripped apart with critiques.

Story, composition, color, sound.... it's all fair game.

Thanks ahead of time!

If you want to include a car you should find something cooler. I did not really like the part where the guy takes a selfie. I found much of the people holding phones and looking at the camera took away from some of the chill being with nature vibe I would think you would want for this kind of edit. I thought overall it was pretty entertaining. I liked the rythim of the cuts. It also had nice brevity.

I really liked the flow to it. You kept the edit going perfectly./ I also agree with the selfie part. Not really needed. Also did you use a LUT? I liked the color a lot.

Really liked it, I agree tho cut out the whole people looking at the camera part and selfie part. Made it feel corny.

Ive heard this song before in some ski edit, i like it. Great edit, the cuts were very clean and went nice with the beat, good color (one of the shots looked a little over exposed 0:49, maybe the actor is just pasty), as stated take out the parts of the actors interacting with the camera. Overall very impressive edit
