OTHER: Experimental Video: Huntington's Backdoor

I really didn't get the first video. I thought the voice was cool and the shot at the end was great, but I couldn't really understand what he was saying and what it was about. The second video was cool, but the one shot that kep repeating got kind of old. The third one I think was the best as far as shots and editing, but I'd like to know the purpose of the videos. Is it just to show the grafitti?
 
Marlon,
Thanks for watching! I tried to disguise his voice in the first video for fear that he may be caught if someone could distinguish.. Perhaps by fiddling with the filters, I disguised it too much, and after hearing what he said so many times, I already knew and didn't have to strain.. You're the second to tell me so.. Good point. Someone told me, "subtitles.."

The second video was another teaser, and I just wanted to point out to people all the shots and some of the good pieces I found. I used the timelapse of the clouds because I thought it was such a memorable shot of the final product (Huntington's Backdoor). I could see how it could become annoying, but.. it was a :30 deal, so I didn't pay too much attention to it.

The third, and final video was the main piece. It had WAY more time put into it, so it was quite a bit more polished. It was the drop the other two were hyping..

Finally, the reason for the videos is.. well, I don't know.. That's why I called it experimental.. It started with a walk around town with a friend who wanted to take photos.. I always liked looking at the tags on the doors, so I decided to take pictures of every door I came to. After sifting through the photos and finding the "good" ones, I posted the pictures with an accompanying video~ Doors- Backdoor Man.. It only seemed fitting.. a guy on a local forum saw it, became inspired, and remixed the song.. one thing led to another, and after what I thought was going to be a simple, quick edit.. 6 weeks, 5 miles on foot, and many shots later, I had the finished product. So, I wanted to stretch it out as much as I could (with the amount of content I had), and make a couple of hype videos..

I'm glad you watched and enjoyed what you could, and I appreciate the constructive criticism.. Thanks!
