Invisible Fireworks Music Video

I did a Christian Rock video several months ago and would love to hear some feedback.
It was a one man crew with me shooting, directing, and editing. I donated my services to enhance my reel so I did not get paid. We spent about $50 on some Home Depot daylight balanced flourescent lamps and $75 bucks for makeup. Their website is www.invisiblefireworks.com

I consider it my best work to date.

To view video, go to www.darkroompix.com, click on Demo Reel, and the first icon top left. (it's a greenish thumbnail)

Happy critiquing!

I click on the picture and get a window with a broken quicktime icon....
I just checked it out and it works fine. Are you PC or MAc? I many need to tell my developer if it's a PC thing.
 
PC, IE, XPsp2, QT 6.5. Could be on my end, but I've never had a problem veiwing .mov's before.

And just to clarify, the window pops up, I see the lightbulb w/ DRP on the side, the quicktime plugin is there w/ a broken icon, it acts like it starts to load for a split second then stops and displays the broken icon. So it knows a .mov is behind it, just doesn't look like it's piping it down.
 
I don't understand how these can be working for some and not for others. It's quicktime format. MAC & PC compatible. It all comes down to the link in the html and I checked them and the links themselves are dead. So I am at a loss for how its going through for others.
 
great video. Love the trucking shots. what type of track did you use? Also i loved the colors on the outdoor shots in the woods. Any special filters or all in post?? All in all great job.
 
the video looks great. i got a little bored with the imagery though after the first half. it seems like we are seeing alot of the same images over and over again. they look great...but after awhile it feels a bit repetitive. it just never goes anywhere.

the lighting and camera work is great!
 
Thanks for the feedback guys....
No special filters or lenses. Everything done in post. (color correction, contrast balancing etc..) I used a $300 Cobra Crane, and a $400 track and doorway dolly from Glideshot.com. All very light and portable.

Rich, thanks for the honest feedback. I loved your work on the "I Did It To Myself" video.

Interestingly enough, no one has posted comments about the band and song. I'd like to hear some feedback on that as well.
