Here is my constructive criticism:

1. Less shaky
2. I would like to see close up more. Some of the tricks might be a little hard to understand from that distance.
3. Full screen. Don’t have black on top and bottom.

it is; the only reason there is black on the top and bottom is that it is embedded. If you watch it full screen, it should be fine.

Some videos are like that, but some aren’t. This one wasn’t. I don’t think the tricks were to hard to see, and IMO, I wasn’t that far away.

It at least would look better, and with slo mo. And the combos were so short I kind of wanted to see more. That’s why I wanted close up and with slo mo to get a good atmosphere.

I was saying that to give a reason why we’re allowed to go back and forth arguing.

I don’t think it was quite the right setting for close up and slow mo. Also, the shorter tricks made it easy to get them clean without a large amount of takes. The shakiness happened because we didn’t bring a tripod out, so stuart had to hold it. I don’t think it was too bad though.

I don’t think it was bad either. I just saw something, so I said something.

No I was saying that I would have been a bit more polite.

Yup. I appreciate the criticisms, I just don’t think they applied to this particular video
