Hey guys, here's a trailer for a 25min short that I was DOP on. I'm editing it as well and I'm looking for some feedback from you guys on the teaser for it. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet(the teaser). What do you guys think?

 
Cinematography looks good but overall I believe the trailer needs work as I was unable to understand what the movie is about. All I saw where a lot of images, fast cuts and no connection between them. I doubt that was your intent but I just wanted to provide honest criticism to aid you in making this great.
 
Bit odd composition in a few images, some shots could have benefited from harder DoF aswell, here and there it pops in a very "video-isch" look

...although trivial, if the story is good ;)
 
Haha the story is not good? Ok. I really like the color grading and this looks fairly professional, definitely more so than other work on here. But I would put in lines and sound so we get an idea of the story like in a real trailer. Take a line here and there that gives us a taste of the plot or the incident fueling the plot.
