I thought the footage came out really nice. After just watching it once, my only thing I would say is that you could have held a bit longer on just a few of the shots, especially in the beginning and that I don't think you need those transitions. You seemed to have been going for something since I think you did it on every clip, but I personally think straight cuts would work better....I like the colors too..seemed like straight out of the camera?
 
I think it looked really nice. I wouldn't say that looked straight out of the camera because my FS100 doesn't have a blue tint to it. :) What I really love is how sharp the FS100 is.

If I could make one criticism, it would be to work with your FS100 settings to help with the blow-outs that really draw your eye. When I was pointing my FS100 at some different blowout scenarios, if you work with some of the settings, like the knee and saturation, you can get the blowouts to look a bit better. I really wish you didn't have to do this, but this is my experience with the FS100. Honestly, you really had no choice probably in the shot, but something I try to be very careful about because of how it can draw the eye in when it's so prominent in a scene like some of the shots.

Thanks, I put some contrast and a little bit of blue/green tint to it. I usually do straight cuts, but I wanted to try something new and smooth.
