Hey everyone! I present one of my latest works, is a bit old but well, exams and problems on each project... however, soon be able to work on more! This one was made in a short time and, as always, with many problems.

Tell me your opinion ^^

Cya!

Not bad, I don't like this king of music but this one was pretty cool, I didn't see any big mistakes so that's nice, good job

Yo!

Indeed not bad, you have a good pace management, and your scene selection is quite good overall. I've also seen some interesting idea of effects in the beginning with the text and other little things.

However, you're kind of killing all of those efforts by using way too many black fades, it totally ruins your editing because it just looks really cheap as a transition. Well it's mainly during calm parts, but it's really too obvious and it's even more frustrating that sometimes you didn't even need them and a simple cut (maybe with some blur) would have been enough. So yeah you definitely should try to reduce them.

Another problem is the repetition of this dezoom transition, well it looks cool but when it's just over and over again the same without real reason (I mean it's not really a transition, it's just here to give some movement) it becomes a bit annoying. Try to find more interesting ways of chaining scenes. Ah by the way, right after a dezoom, you more than likely can't make a zoom, because it's breaking the move you were doing just before and so yeah it's not a good thing usually

But anyways, overall it wasn't bad at all, we can feel that you knew what you were doing with synch, pace and scene selection and that's a good thing, the last problem here is to convince us that your editing is solid enough to be able to look cool without all the cheap black fades. 

Keep it up!

I was getting ready to get into it, but then I noticed that its not the original song...

Anyway not bad, places I didn't like and places looked weird... I would give you a full opinion once I'm not lazy and stop using my phone,

Yo! I totally agree with you, my editing is repetitive, when I edit I realize it... however in this video I didn't try other techniques basically because it wasn't a serious project, only a small inspiration ^ ^ I'll try to improve these points, and then I'll put a new work here : )

Thanks for the feedback!

The original song didn't fit xD, thanks for your comment ^^

Overall I think there were too many zoom/dezoom effects (especially in that part from 0:20 to 0:35), and sometimes they weren't logical. For example at 1:15, a zoom right after a dezoom, it feels weird to me.But apart from that,I liked it, you should just try to vary your transitions in the calm parts

I think zooms and fades were a bit ripetitive, some clips you forgot to disable resample( i told you a lot of time lol) but the work is still enjoyable ^^ next time you should try new transitions. nice work jose

I love it, You have honored soul eater !
