Please go watch my edit and critique it. Rip it to shreds pls. (I already know it was a bit shaky, was my first time in the park with the glidecam since last year) Tell me what I did wrong and tell me what I can do better on. Any words of wisdom help too!

The repetitive song cuts started to piss me off. Also, the whole edit could use colour correction in order to create a more professional/cinematic feel if you're going for that.

There was the one cut at the end and I wasn't happy about it either.

Thought about CC but I've been known to go overboard with it so I figured I would just leave it. I'll do that next time for sure though!

I agree with the song cuts, if youre going that route, id only do it once. Also when you bring the song back dont fade it in.

I also would have put the names in a different place than the corners, a little larger too. But thats just personal preference.

Agree with the CC. A little bit can go a long way.

Vibe was cool, looked like a fun time!

Dont cut the song out when they crash and the other times. You could have put that at end or beginning to make it better. Also make sure you get broll. It got pretty boring just watching straight skiing for almost 4 minutes. A good edit has broll every 3-4 shots(3 shots of skiing, 1 broll)
I also agree with the titles and color correction as well.
