Okay then Ulti, I hope you were expecting at least a bit "Professional" review (I hope I can say that) and detailed descriptions.


Very nice shots, but the editing is terrible the jumping from one side of axis to another is very unnecessary. What I mean is, having the same shot from left and right, unless something happens that requiers a change of view, then adding a shot from opposite side is wrong.

Fades to black/white are random and you could get rid of them, they bring nothing, at least on the beginning, they're too slow

You jump a lot with perspective, resulting in having a shot that's not very balanced. One time you see a lot of sky, another you have dominating ground. Such shots should be thought through, is there a reason for filming it like that?

Around 0:50 I see the worst shot ever, you've cut the frame ON THE FEET! it's terrible! Never ever do that! Likewise, never cut the shot on the top of heads! Always leave some space.

The editing cuts are too many, it looks more like a videoclip, where everything has to be FAST. CUT CUT CUT CUT. No need for that, you can have similar effect with less cuts and more planning. What comes with that - too much teleporting, in 2:00 and further you just overdid it.

Music is well edited with visuals

I'd go for more makeup like bruises and blood the more you fight.

Acting is pretty good, you don't laugh, you don't make many false moves, it's well prepared, grats on that!

The last and the most terrible thing. Even if the landscape is amazing, THE CARS BEHIND YOU... oh god there's a street in the background that drives away my attention, and when you do cuts to show somebody teleported, the cars dissappear. Please pay attention to backgrounds. ;D The easiest thing to do is just change the angle of what camera sees.

I loved the kick with turning around on 2:16. Nicely done!

Also even if you are dressed very nicely, your partner in black has terrible shoes. XD

A little bit of hints from a filmschool student I hope it helps you with making future films. If you ever need advice, give a sign.

You, sir, are a director and all hints are for you. ;]

Aww Piz you could have told him on how to change the background

by rotoscoping the old background out first. Its really quick to do as well (ok maybe not)

lol. No, not really. It's just easier to prevent that in future. Or, do the green screen
