I had to turn it off after the first min..


But i see it's your first video so i am sure your next one will be much better.

What ppl want to see is the "sounds of the quad" , Jump's And NOT a picture show..

thanks for being honest...

I appreciate that many people like those kind of videos.( those "sounds of the quads and jumps and such")but i seriously cant watch them without yawning...
and i just couldn't put the hard work into something i don't like.
that said, i realize a made a bit of a mistake with the fact that i didn't include any outside audio...a mistake i plan on fixing in future installments.
thanks

Looks like you had a lot of fun doing that!
I say it's a good effort as far as putting together a watchable video compared to many others out there.

Some thoughts,
You are using a lot of titles. Watch your spelling. Where you used it, it's "your" not "you're".

Lots of effect transitions can get distracting after a while. Use them where it counts. not everywhere.

Also on the stills at the end, use the Ken Burns effect. That will make them more interesting.

One last suggestion, be careful using other peoples music without their permission. You may get called out on a copyright violation if you ever try to license that vid or someone connected to the artist sees the vid.

Keep making vids. You're doing a great job!

thanks very much for the honesty.

these are some great pointers, thank you i will definitly use them in the future.

Ken burns was something i wanted to include in the stills... i just didn't have the time...

as for the copyright check the description below the video...it is a notice that i'm not using the video to make profit and nearly guarantees your video wont get taken down to copyright, although it would have been helpful to make a little change on the side from the video with the ads and such, to be able to pay for the equipment that im planning on getting hopefully soon(to try and ditch imovie) its a price to pay for something we wanted to do, the music i mean.
thank you very much for the tips!
