See below the trailer for my upcoming documentary about Jawai in Radjasthan, India where an unusual high concentration of wild leopards can be observed in the wild. This high density of wild leopards is founded in the spiritual belief of the local people. A fascinating symbiosis of humans, leopards and landscape.

Full documentary coming soon! Feel free to comment, and I am happy to receive feedback, as I am here to learn.

Hey! Nice but the voice over is too "commercial" sounding (IMHO).

I mean as far as cadence and tone is concerned.

It's an acting issue, you could try to re-do it with the same speaker but probably you would be better off with someone else less involved in commercial and stuff or more versatile.

My 2c and hoping to help ya!

Cheers!!!!

Hey, thanks for that feedback! I would be interested to know why you feel it is not fitting so well. You mention cadence and tone - I had another version before where I had the same speaker doing the same text much slower and more pronounced (more like your granddad telling a bedtime story) - to me this was not so fitting as it was sort of forcing an emotion on the viewer and the images could not breathe.

Hey Gunther, it just sounds strange...it seems the speaker is somewhat trying to sell the viewer something...that's the culprit I think.
 
Hey, I was in Kanha National Park about a month ago, got to see a tiger but no Leopards. Wish we would have known about Jawai, would have went there as well. Can't see the vids at the moment as I'm in China and Youtube/Vimeo are blocked. Twitter is too, will follow when we leave China and head to Europe at the end of the month.

Cheers

Yeah, I know this issue in China - use a VPN as @dia3olik says.
