Peer Review for Digital Video and Editing Principles


This peer review is for Candace Bastien.

I really liked your video. There were a few major things that stood out. I like the combination of voiceover and background music. I have considered going back and doing the same thing with my project. I also like the shot where you actually zoom out and show yourself typing at the keyboard. This was very clever. I also feel the flow of your shots have a good sequence to them.

I did have one question. It seemed there were quite a few still shots in your video. Did you intend to do this for a reason. The combination of video footage and still shots worked well, I was just unsure why you chose this method.

Have you considered putting in some more transitions between scenes? I feel they might be able to add something to your project, although I am not sure exactly what kind of transitions you are looking for. Perhaps, some wipes or dissolves?

Perhaps, you can add a little something to the project by using some more special effects. There are some interesting ones to choose from. Overall, I really like your video portrait and thought you did a great job.

Sincerely

Larry Antoskiewicz
