The opening of the video shows that the editing of the piece is strong as the stums of the guitar are in time with the music, this is something we hope to achieve within our own video. However the actor singing mouth movements are very small which makes it unbelieveable and less realistic that he is actually singing, something we will try to avoide.
Some of the camera movements appeal to me nonetheless the hand-held camera is sometimes very unstable and could have been smoother. For the viewers it is sometimes difficult to see whether the actor really is singing along with the words.
Unfortunately in my personal oppinion I find the video not very engaging as there does not seem to be much going on. I have found that many popular video's have some narrative within them, which helps appeal and draw in some audiences. It also helps the artist a it seems they are trying to get over some important message to their fans.
In terms of editing there are many straight cuts, which are all in time and very effective in some places however I feel I would like to create some variety to create some individuality within our video.
Jazz just seems to star in everything!
