this makes the movie look really dark. i think you should have focused more on the relationships between each character

[chriskardos]

It was well put together but I don't think it's a good trailer. Since the goal of a trailer is to make people want to see the movie and make them interested about it. I wouldn't want to see the movie after this trailer.

PR0!!!

[hmmpf]

where do you guys go to film school?

i liked this trailer too.

Nice job, this is not an easy movie to cut into a trailer.

[Magnulus]

Quite all right. A lot of heavy stuff to deal with in terms of camera usage and stuff (5x4 cameras) and history of photography lessons that damn near kill me, but other than that I'm quite good. ^_^

I can totally see the whole "losing myself in it" idea of editing. I do the same thing myself.

[ayumash]

Yes! I love all my homework : ) I get totally lost in this stuff, and don't even notice when hours and hours go by. How's your school going?

[Magnulus]

Music is nice like that. If you hit it at precisely the right spots, you can lengthen or shorten it without anyone noticing.

^_^ I don't always leave people constructive crits on Youtube, as a lot of people don't put their videos on here to have them scrutinized, but I remember how you enjoy them, so I thought I might as well. You enjoying film school so far?

[ayumash]

Aw : ) Thank you! I almost forgot what great comments you always leave me! This was my first project, so i later learned about more audio editing. I actually cut the song in half for my music video and I think it turned out pretty seamless.

You could even make a cross-dissolve between the two meeting sound clips. two or three frames on each side oughtta do it. Keep up the good work, Ayuma! You're showing a lot of promise!
