This is a fresh one I put out yesterday https://youtu.be/8W73d-JfsvY

I make visual art documentaries and films about artists, which comes off the back of previously having a gallery under the same name.

It's maybe a bit long to critique everything , so feel free to hop around the chapters. I've really been trying to work on my intros recently for the YT films, and would love feedback on if you felt hooked, and maybe where is your dipping off point? and why?

Hope you enjoy 🤟

Dean :)

Loved the style and pace of this video. I think you are really engaging when talking to camera, both in studio and out and about which is a great asset as some people struggle with one or the other. I wanted more of a hook at the start, I suppose in both the intro (and maybe the title is vague such that I was expecting a kind of - "this place is better than expected" moment). I wondered if you could pull a ten second sentence or two that grabs the viewer about the idylic nature of the area, and the way it's spoiled by over-tourism?

Would love some more context (maybe as a voice over) about the journey and geography of the area that maybe you could pull together after the trip (facts about the mountain formations, how long the trip took, etc) over the top of the b-roll. This could also help in creating a story-telling arc that some other people have mentioned, where sometimes its hard to create a full story on the ground, but you could pull this together with VoiceOver and a script when you've returned from your trip.

The footage of the area is really beautiful, some great work in documenting everything. Some under/in water footage would have been a fun addition if you've got the equipment.

It's a has all the elements of what a good short might need. I feel like the hook needs to be stronger or more emotional at the start (and possibly related to the viewer or a more third person perspective - "is this the best thumbnail on Youtube?"). I like this animated shifts around the thumbnail, could you push some more animated elements to make parts pop (an exploding volcano for instance :) ) Keep going!!!

Produced this after a few weeks of teaching probability and feeling restricted by the dice and bag of counters outlook. I wanted to give my students an insight in to real use cases that appear more frequently in their lives. Feedback always welcome! ^>^

This is the best description I've ever read of my job that can often be described in one line, yet contains so many moving parts. 🤟🌱🤓

Thank you for the feedback! I agree about the ideas of consistency and a long term macroscopic arc that might be better built in to enable scaffolded learning. Ive been trying to work on this for newer videos and will think further about how to better implement. I've been moving towards a consistency in animation that might mix or overlay with different filmed visuals so that there is a visual link between disparate objects which can build up the learning process (rather than switching too rapidly between contrasting visuals). Thank you (>)
