Hello Kamal,

I was totally amazed watching your video. I had heard of Maldives before but did not know where it was or anything about it. Very, very beautiful, I can see why you fell in love with it.
Your video was excellent. As Peter said it would have been nice to have seen some city shots. Maybe the next time you go there.


Very Well Done!

Peter,

What a wonderful video. You captured the essence of Poland with this historical visit to Warsaw, Poland's capital. World War2 was such a tragic time in world history and Warsaw was at the heart of it. Your video honors the millions who died during that terrible time.

AI isn't always prefect. At 1:26 your Text is written "the Warsaw Barbican and Royal Castle take us back to the time of Polish Royalty" The AI speaking narration said polish (as in polish the silver) rather than Polish (as in Poland).

I love this Video !!

Well Done

Helen,

The beginning drone scenes of your video were beautifully done but as you paned with the drone it became jerky. This could have been corrected in post production by using the stabilizer effect.

Because I live in the northern climate of the USA, I had never seen or heard of the Jacarandas tree before. They are very beautiful. My guess is that many people may recognize them and many may not, so that is where subtitles or voice over would really have helped a lot. Just a short description, maybe something from Wikipedia would have helped.

Well Done !!

Dick

I would like to comment on Boskee's critique. Boskee suggested using smaller font size and a color to match the video. I agree and disagree. For an opening Text depicting the title or description of the video, a larger font is good. I do believe that she is correct about the color, but not in this case, the font was changing colors like a rainbow, depicting the beauty that was to come in your video.

Hello Boskee,

I could tell that this was your first time making a longer video. Your photography was excellent but the video was made up of 35 short "B" roles. There was no discernable subject other than one may guess that you were trying to depict a market place. If you would have used subtitles, your audience may have been able to understand where you were and what your were showing us. Someplaces are universally understood and recognizable but I don't believe that Dubai's Bastakiya is one of them.

I saw your critique of Helens video.....

2. The video felt like a perfectly crafted B-roll, almost like the stage was set, but the "actor" hadn't arrived yet. Adding a subject in some shots could make it feel even more dynamic and complete.

So I am surprised that you recognized it in Hellens video but you did not see it when you were editing your own video.


So my suggestion is make your clips longer, following a subject, and use subtitles or voice over.

This was your first video so please take my comments as they were ment, to help you improve

Dick
