If you don't mind some constructive criticism, here's my thoughts on your video:

 

- your video should always tell a story from beginning to the end even if sometimes it seems it does not. Prepare that in your mind, at your desk or anywhere you want. Just do it before you actually start shooting. In other words, make a little script of your own. Always have the story line in your head. Shooting a vid does not always happens in a sequence from beginning to the end. Things don't always happen in chronological order. You might be forced to start shooting the middle scene just because you were caught in the middle of it and it will not happen again very soon. You always need to know how that scene connects to the next scene and how it fits in the whole scenario.

 

- dynamics. Lots of it. You need to tell that story in the most concise way possible. Make it as short as possible without leaving aside the important things you want to incorporate. Keep in mind that it's a thin line between being entertained and being bored. Your viewers might not have the patience to watch a 20 minutes movie if they think it's not worth so even thought you think it's awesome to watch a beautiful landscape for 5 minutes.

 

- you need to learn how to proper frame the landscapes, people, objects and so on. Find the scene that you want to present to the audience, visualize it in your head, put yourself into your target viewers shoes and keep in mind that what you see with your own eyes does not look the same trough your camera lenses.

 

- learn to work with the light, use it to your benefit

 

- learn to edit your movies. You can shoot a scene more than once. Do it twice or as many times you think it's necessary until you're satisfied with the result.

 

- use a proper HD camera. Use its built in image stabilizer or at least try to stabilize your movie using proper software like Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere or equivalents. Do a little research on how to optimize your video quality before you upload it to YouTube.

 

I could add a lot more to the above but for now I will stop here. There were some interesting scenes into your movie. I don't know whether they were intentional or not but anyways..good start :)

^ You have too much time on your hand, sir.

tl;dr

^Text wall

Don't bother. I'm not counting on your reply. I feel the same with or without your wisdom. Go back to "My thoughts on ....." or "Ask me anything" topics. I'd say it's time you should start "My garage turned pink" topics.

Nice&creative answer. Props to you. It seems that trying to help someone here is boring unless it's entertaining.

I guess an "nice video, looks good, awesome..." would have been more appropriate. My bad. It won't happen again.

Don't stop! Some people might actually use your advice.

And Lizerd, I liked the video. It made me think of going on vacation. Something I haven't done in years..

Even more creative. Keep up the good work and the world will be a better place!

You're supposed to be old but with this ^ you look like 10, monkeyburn.

No, just trying to raise the bar a little and also sick and tired of it at the moment.

"That wasn't a question!"
