New music, gore, tits, explosions! Please give me your feedback. This is to showcase my editing and camerawork skills. It ain't perfect, but its my 2nd draft. My final will have even more footage, but I wanna know if I'm going in the right direction with my choice of cuts, footage etc. So please, lemme know if this is better than the last one, and what you like or don't like about it.

I agree. 4 wheeler stuff looked more like you just kinda went out and filmed your friend with no purpose. I realize it's a demo reel but I still don't like how everything is sort of pieced together.
didnt like the eye, too cliche with a bad subject doing it.
Good video other than that. There was a couple times when i was like wtf (long *** four wheelers and also the soccer game) Dont know how they played into perspective, but it was still pretty good.
Good addition of the dipping + dripping water. I think you could honestly make it 60 seconds, throw out all the filler stuff, and just keep me interested for the whole 60 secs. I think that'd be the best way to present it.
In terms of 'demo-reel-editing', you're doing fine. Subjects are explored and then you move on. Some of the cuts within these are a little odd, soccer immediately comes to mind. A little too jumpy.
I didn't like the shots of the feild. The glare was a bit much, and there was some unecessary camera movement in some of the shots (it looked like you were adjusting the camera mid-shot, not exactly professional).
There was some good stuff in there; I'd cut it down a bit more.
I made my own thread for mine to avoid jacking yours.
When I'm ready, man. I'm practicing practicing praticing to smooth out my camerawork, tighten editing, lighting, etc etc. Its getting a lot better. I'll have a horror short finished in the next couple of weeks, then you *******s can help me decide if I should do a feature. If it captivates you guys, then its good enough for me! I dunno if its really gonna captivate anyone, but I can dream.
