Video Critique Thread?

Should we have one? There is already one for photographs that has been well received:

Critique Thread for Photographers

It could either be done as a new thread, or included in the current Critique thread.

Thoughts?

Excellent idea Col. Z! I'll be the first to give it a go:

I had the honor of working with VIP provider Kayla Kelli recently on a promotional video for her business. It includes a little romantic story, showcasing her sexy side and also a good example of what her clients can expect when visiting her.

(NOTE: Video Link has music and is NSFW)

About the video shoot: Kayla had done several shoots with other photographers but to my knowledge had not done a video before. She was a little nervous at first but very excited and was patient with me as I changed lighting and found unique angle to show her best sides. She provided her own wardrobe and did her hair and makeup while I was setting up the lights and getting the camera ready. I would recommend if you are not comfortable doing your H+M that you hire a professional stylist - they can charge $75-200 depending on needs. However video doesn't hide much and you want to look your best on camera. Over all I think we are both happy with how it came out and I know a lot of her clients (old and new) loved how it looked and she booked higher end clients after posting it to her website. Which can be found here: www.vipkaylakelli.com

Thank you for reading my post and feel free to offer a constructive critique of my film - please keep the drama out of it and be respectful towards Kayla. I know she would love to hear your thoughts on her sexy little performance. Have a great weekend and travel safe all!

I'd love to get some feedback on an erotic music VIDEO I did for a couple of Dallas based providers. (It has music and you have to be signed in to youtube)

I haven't started to do video yet, but I'm doing my research

I have shot some in the past and have learned that once you hit that 2-3 minute mark the viewer loses interest - well at least that's the feedback I've gotten. Other than that it was a great piece. I've worked with her before and she's very fun and professional and brings some creativity to the shoot and that is always a big plus. I like your style and look forward to seeing more of your work.

Would someone suggest a good editing tool please? Thanks so much.

Sony Vegas is great. There is a learning curve but it's very powerful. There are some easier template driven options like muvee and it is another great option.

Thank you I have a lot of reading to do.

If you are a professional video person i'd recommend: Final Cut Pro X - If you are hobbiest or semi pro looking to get into it: iMovie (Mac software) its very easy to learn, tons of tutorials on youtube and costs about $15-20 bucks in the app store. You can also download a basic iMovie version for your iPhone / iPad and edit it right on your phone or iPad. Pretty cool! Good luck let me know when you have something edited and I'll give you some feedback. Just email / PM me a link!

Would love some feedback

I'm shooting a video this weekend and would someone suggest where to find music that I can use. That's not trade marked.Thanks so much.

Would love some feedback
