How to make some turkish coffee

[Aschu]

Shot this at the coffee shop I work at. I have a few more videos coming to help advertise for our shop. Let me know what you think. DVX100B, 30p, Squeeze mode.

To be honest, it was a little boring. Long, awkwardly quiet, and too little variety in the shots. Switching fonts in the middle was a little weird, and once you got to that point (defining "potent") the text was too distracting over the video. It's a great concept, and I really like what you did with the other font (though... "spoon" could have been up there longer, even with a freeze frame and a "ding" sound).

Music underneath would have helped, but the audio was obviously on-cam mic and it was challenging to keep watching (bad audio kills my attention span). I'd have gone with a wireless lav in this situation.

PM'd with some additional thoughts.

Definitely want to up the audio quality. Mostly it's a lack of resources and money to get anything, but that is the goal this summer.

I'll keep on working at this.

Hey Aschu, keep it up! You mention a lack of resources and money, however, editing doesn't cost anything, assuming you're editing. So simply cutting it down would help tremendously.

Peace...
