Something I shot while the family was out in the local theme park here where I live. The picture quality is a bit below par, cos of low ambient light (hence the grain) and the compression on this video somehow turned out crappy (my others have been ok so I don't know why this one isnt as good) and youtube.. well not the best to exhibit your work but nonetheless the most convenient for me.


anyway hope you like this little 'advert' and comments would be welcomed on how to do well in these sort of projects.. e.g. comments on the camera angles, framing, editing, music, etc..

I liked it. It's short and to the point.

I liked the camera when the horses are going up and down changing the view of the subjects sitting down on the little bench thing.

Overall I thought it was effective. Good job.
 
I like the overall style of this - color, slow mo, fade-ins and outs, etc., and there are some really nice compositions to the shots. It may be a little long on the same subject matter, though. I would love to see different scenes around the park in this style and I think that might help convey what a great overall experience a visit to the park would be...

hi Chief, yeah I got the same comments from friends who've seen the clip.. that was sorta a test clip... I will definitely go back to reshoot the whole park once I have the time.. glad you liked the clip and composition.. composition was on the spot - I will probably do some more thinking about framing for my future shoot of the park.
 
Yeah, it's nice as it is, but I could definitely see some shots of someone eating cotton candy, the name signs for the rides, other rides, people holding hands...I like it though. Nice work.

change the music and it becomes a horror short pretty quick.

Hi Kevin,.. erm thanks for the 'indirect' compliment on the choice of music, . but it would be great if you'll let us know what makes it a horror short? camera angle, composition, editing, framing, grain issues, subject matter? it will help the learning process if we know what was wrong.. thanks..
