Hm. I want to like this, but I really can’t seem to. The whole development of the video was, well… boring. It’s not the pace of development, since there was none. The shots slowly led to a long road of nothing. I can tell you were trying to go for a spooky, perhaps tense feel. The shots didn’t really lend too well to this. You’re supposed to establish a movement/action/thought in a shot, and then immediately move on, not linger on it past the point of interest. EDIT: Editing the shots down to be shorter would make the video faster paced, one would argue, but you’d be wrong. I’d like to see quicker cut shots of the hand turning the knob, an unsure face, etc. I’m going to watch the other videos on your channel. Perhaps I’ll edit my post with an addition. ---

Being short does not give it the excuse to be boring. “lol” no offence taken. You just don’t understand :wink: EDIT: Exhibit A: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/9/1/691eae05bebad3d1b7b48cd8c6e361f5e00c900c.jpeg "HACK3R C@T EPISODE 1: A Meow Hope") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjD54lKM8jU) Jayyo, tell your fan club to back down; I meant no offence by anything, though he clearly finds the need to defend you. ---
