"Don't formulate excuses for your work"
It's really not bad, but as the others were saying, it moves too fast. That being said, it takes skill to make something move that fast so moving at that speed demonstrates some proficiency in what you do, granted it takes away from the "watchability" of the video.
As for your reply above, I've noticed similar "excuses" from you in previous videos. I'll give you a quote from Goggyfour's analysis of video directing from a year ago:
Quote:Dont formulate excuses for your work
Again, to echo my thoughts in a previous SW post, it really pisses me off that right as Im about to watch a movie, someone attempts to explain their work as I was bored or Did it in five minutes. If youre not going to present your best effort, then why should I watch your movie? It makes absolutely no sense to exchange a better piece for something far worse merely because someone felt that their integrity would be destroyed if their best movie was too. Im not saying this really happens at all, but people tend to think this way regardless. Psychologically this is worse for the development of a person than it is in any artistic sense, because it justifies not going the extra step as a form of defense mechanism.
There's nothing wrong with making a video that moves way too fast. Making a mistake once allows you to learn from experience and never do it again (least I hope). Just accept the comments and move on and do better next time =P Then again, if this was rushed and not your best effort, Im curious to see what you can REALLY do without a time constraint xD
