O-U-C, Great work young man! Love that song from Lady Antebellum "Need you now". Reminds me of cruisingdown the lonely highway, missing my love ones even more with lyrics and melody hitting a soft spot. Thecinematic effect using low angle shots is not about the person(s) in the shot. I think you got your themeacross about lonely people in general. Yeah, I can relate to that..... Lately I've been listening to Hall&Oates oldies but goodies. Check this out, a remake of Gladys Nightsand the Pips -- Neither One of Us (fast forward to 3 minute mark): http://www.livefromd...p.html?ep_id=26 Have a good one -- Jake :

I think it's great, really got the message across!

It looks pretty good to me, and the music suits it ! Well done !

Looks great and sounds fantastic, the only comment is that I would rather it was full screen, I even hate the new TV programs and movies that display narrow, so it is not just your video that I say that about. Looks like you took it with a hidden camera in some type of device.

thanks for the input guys !!! yes jake that was kind of the feeling i was trying to get across but its really funny how you can change the feel of a video just by the music , if i put another song in there it might not have came across the same way !!! i know what you mean lee im not really a huge fan of letterbox either i like the picture to fill the whole screen myself too but as i was trying to make it cinematic i thought it would have been better to try it this way !! anyway i was just fooling around hahaha as for how it looks like it was taking with a hidden cam i actually filmed it with the camera in my lap to stabilize it as much as possible i filmed that around 11 am on a sat morning and the subway wasnt too busy !! thanks again for the input EVERYONE !!! O-U-C :)

Hey O-U-C, did you use a color filter? Looks like it enhanced certain autumn colors. If I may suggesttry using a tripod to capture close-up or zooming in nature shots. I really like the pond scene but nexttime go without the letter box effect. A full HD wide screen with no black borders really pops and allowsthe viewer to feel like he's actually there. I thought all along you might be filming that killer intersection while on you're daily run for beer....he, he. Take care my friend -- Jake

Nice to see you trying to be a bit creative and experimental. If you want to discuss anything more or want some advice, contact me, I was a audiovisual producer in Australia before coming to Cebu. Keep up the good work, Ned
