Poetry Slam Event Recap - Feedback Appreciated

[DHLOGAN]

I shot a Poetry Slam a few weeks ago. Check it out and let me know what you think. I will be shooting this event again next week and every month until March. I really want to improve each month so that after March I'll be a "master" at this type of video. The client really wanted a fast-paced, aggressive, "raw" video so thats what I was going for.

I shot with a single A1 on 24F. I'm thinking of using 30F next time since its a live event and I've read that its the way to go for live events. I also may also be able to use a T2i on the shoot as well next time so I will be able to set my A1 wide to shoot the performers then walk around with the T2i to get b-roll shots.

I used a Rode shotgun mic mounted on my camera for audio. I'm thinking of trying to get a feed from the venues mixer next time so that I can get better audio.

Other than that let me know what you think. I have learned SO much from DVXuser already so your feedback on my product would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance!
