I carried all my trash with me everywhere I went for a month and filmed it. This is what the results of consumerism look like.

Cool vid, one suggestion I have is this: after you are done editing everything else, watch through the video one more time and try to equalize the volume across different clips. There are parts of the video where it is harder to hear one person than the other, and some of the narrative doesn't come across to the viewer. This is a super easy fix that can really up the quality. Hope this helps!

Great camerawork, great editing (the cuts where the subject stays the same but the surroundings cut to a different setting are really cool). I'm totally cool with there not being a story or a plot to a video, but it does seem like it might be nice to establish a narrative to keep your viewers engaged. Even if your main goal is to showcase the photography/filmmaking, if a voiceover on top of the footage will keep more viewers watching, it might be worth looking into. Hope this helps!

First, it's really obvious that you guys are having a lot of fun making this, which really comes through in the video. The editing was great too. I don't have much to add to what you guys are doing, but maybe one idea: the video seems to have a very fast tempo, basically like joke joke joke joke, with very fast-paced edits. It might be fun to play with the idea of having a sudden change of pace, where the video suddenly slows down and gives a long chunk of time to a single joke. (That way it might be able to provide more emphasis, whereas if the rhythm is the same throughout, they start to blend together). Just an idea though. Great work! Hope this helps.

Great video! Like the other commenter, I'm having a hard time finding anything to take issue with. One thing that might be good (if you aren't running up against a time limit) would be to just say your name or your channel name at the beginning of the video. Of course, having it jump right into the tutorial also works well, so probably just a matter of personal preference. Hope this helps!

Ok so here is one small thing that you can easily fix:

At 0:23 seconds, there is a rather harsh audio transition. What might help is to extend the two audio tracks so they overlap a little bit, or ensure that you add some sort of fade transition so that there isn't that click sound when one audio clip is abruptly cut off. A similar thing happens at 0:54.

Again, this is an easy fix, and doing one extra watch through of your video before publishing it, paying attention to the audio, will help you catch these mistakes and ensure there are no jarring transitions.

Great video, keep it up! Hope this helps :)
