[size=14.666666984558105px]Hi all!
[size=14.666666984558105px]Had my Mavic a couple of days, mostly crappy weather, so not to much practicing on techniques on aerial footage.
[size=14.666666984558105px]Still, I have produced a video and uploaded it on Vimeo. Please take in consideration that this is my first edit - EVER. Sorry for the 720p video on Vimeo, the file exceeded 500mb in 1080p.

Cool trick in the beginning :-) and the bridge is ready now which must be good. You can make a "cut" in the end since it seems like it only a black frame here in the end.

Could of been much shorter. And I felt the music was too fast pace for these kind of shots. Music wasn't synced well with the footage. But also everyone has their own way of editing. And yea that huge black screen needs to go

What song is that? and where?

Thank for sharing!

Thanks for giving me feedback. I both agree and disagree regarding the music. I actually find that the music is the hardest part of editing. It sets the initial mood of everything, so it's crucial that the music fits the video.
Music is Ed Sheeran - I See Fire (kygo remix) - I'd rather not say where i found it.

I appreciate you taking the time to say your opinion - i just want to get better at this! :-)

I have to agree music is the hardest part. But I go crazy over the music.

don't be sorry just locate the problem and fix it, I sometimes do the same and it's ok to make misstakes as long as we learn from them go helg.

n0gga,
Nice video, love the scenery and makes me want to go to Norway to visit!

I did not like the very beginning at first BUT it portrays your story.  Keep in mind that the human mind likes change, so make sure you do not do too much of the same items.  It's like going to the beach and seeing the water, it majestic, vast, open, and however that is great, the mind becomes board and want to see something else or a change.

At the beginning, you are "flying" over your roof...needs to be a bit smoother, not stop and go.  Slow is best and if you think you are going slow, go slower unless it is a fast action video you are trying to make.  Use tripod mode and will totally help with your video's.  On a video, if you yaw, up/down it will show up in the video faster then you think and it is hard to watch.

You want to portray a story, keep your audience interested, if not they become board and want to move on.  I think the length is good, but would have loved to see more of Norway, boats, docks, cars/truck, trains, mountains, etc. (you get the point) to keep it interesting.

I did love the end part, I thought it brought the beginning together.  Also thought because you started off with the filter...end with taking the filter off.

Hope this helps.

I really like the music, it gives me a "neistat" feeling (hope it doesn't offend you). Think your footage could be a lot better on a platform like Vimeo. This would give you the proper 16:9 view and the quality you deserve.
