Hi everyone!

I'm very excited to say that yesterday I graduated from Otis College of Art and Design! For my senior show I created a short reel/trailer to show all of my work. NOTE: This is all shot on my scarlet which I purchased a little less than a year ago. So in other words all of this was shot in the past year.


Please let me know what you think!

First off, you have some nice shots, especially love the many pretty wides.

However, I thought it felt kind of long and it was dragging a little for me from 20 seconds till like a minute in. Right now your reel is 2 min and 30 sec long, and it could be a lot shorter. I liked it when it started picking up at the end, so I think it'll be stronger if you shorten it by cutting the beginning of the song and starting a little later into it.

Then, you can clean up some shots that seem a little repetitive. For example, you return to that shot at :33 again later in the reel and you have a couple different shots from inside the car that all look very similar.

Just some of my thoughts and great work!

Thank you for the feedback Kevin! I really appreciate it. I do agree it could be a little shorter.
