Crit Feedback

So for the crit I showed what I and so far for my trailer and got some good feedback on parts of the trailer for example the time lapse going backwards at the start of the trailer was mentioned as a good point as were the dominoes falling over the responsibility part of the speech. There was also some issues raised which I found useful these were - 

• The effect on the dominoes is a little uneasy to watch - Here I wanted the last domino that falls to have a real earthquake effect shaking the screen to try and give it more impact on the viewer I used a effect with a similar name in final cut here to try and do this and it is a little extreme so I could see where they were coming from it still something I want to do so maybe I need to explore other effects here and just experiment a little.

• No kinetic text on dominoes sections - This is where I had original planned to use kinetic text because the dominoes were over the responsibility and 'I welcome it" part of the speech. However it was mentioned that the footage here was strong enough without kinetic text so it is something to think about but I think I would still like to at least experiment a little with this to see what it looks like before cutting the idea completely. 

• No build up - It was suggested that the strong imagery I had in the footage had not build and seemed a little forced on to go with they timing of the speech and looking back now I can see where they were coming from. This is something I do want to address and as I want the trailer the flow with speech and lead somewhere rather than just forcing certain footage up to go with parts of the speech so some sections will have to change a lot for this too happen, which I have already started to do and have some good ideas for.

So the crit was very helpful for me in this project and these were the three main points I want too address and experiment with.
