The Good:
The story came thru.
The shot of the ceiling fan looks nice.
The Bad:
Editing feels random at times
Terrible production values - No lighting, random things in frames, bad looking sets
Many shots are out of focus for no apparent reason
Looks like it was filmed in 24 frames but exported in 25 frames.

Not bad. What did you shoot this on?
I'd take the flash frames with the statements out, or if you wanna show them overlay them over video so you can have them on screen a little longer so they can be read. I like your sequencing with the back and forth. I like the cut aways you used of the fan the keys etc
Like the contrast in lighting you used the brightness for scenes with her the darkness for scenes of him by himself.
And like breh above said make sure you get everything in focus.
Overall good video for your 1st time

Thanks. We shot this in 2 days, so that's why it's a lil redundant for the locations. It would have been less variation too cause we shot the night scenes like 2 months after the initial shoot.
I shot it with my Sony A6000. I don't have a dedicated video camera. My brother did the editing on this, and it was literally his first time doing it. He looked up some tutorials on things, chopped up the clips and edited the bulk of this in a day in Adobe Premier. So I think he did a dope job and will only get better.
Lighting is really on some DIY tip, just used lamps and stuff that was in the brehs house... so I fully understand the lighting and focusing critiques. Especially on this camera which isn't full frame.

Not bad for a 1st edit not bad at all
Good job overall. I didnt see anything that couldnt be corrected with a little more experience.
If you dont have one already pick up a stabilizer. They can be tricky to use but once you get the technique down it helps alot keeping your shots smooth.

My guy has one of those too. I've tried using it when working on some of his videos, but never figured it out completely.

Turn off auto focus. there are times when it's jumping between 2 objects and not like with a rack focus
Either use a tripod or a steady cam.
That's all I got now. if I have more I'll probably just say something on fb
So the a6000 is a formidable video cam. Duly noted.
Good picture quality
Good story telling with camera work
Thought the opening shot lookin at the phone could have used an extra cut/angle or 2.
Parts that seemed like an amateur would have left the camera in one shot you made dynamic by fading to the shot digging the grave
I'd say the worst part about it all is the song.
I wasn't annoyed by the camera work at all. Good work. Practice refines technique so progression seems natural since it seems like you are artistic with your work
