Very solid. You have a great reading voice, very professional sounding. As some ppl have pointed out, the visuals are a bit grainy and dark sometimes.

I really liked what all the players had to say, especially Torch.

Everything about this video makes it seem like a really good news piece. Even your voice follows the same intonation as a lot of news stories. A nice quick overview of the event, and lol at Milkis's voice being dubbed over Losira's. Really enjoyed it, thank you very much for sharing.

that was really good man! I do think that some of the shots were to short, but I guess that is a lot of content for 90 seconds

interesting showing. would be cooler if you could've shown some more epic moments like the crowd cheering / chanting people's names, to show how epic esports can be. otherwise a good representation of the field to people not familiar with the scene.

Apart from the using the same shot twice (the one where the guy is stretching) it was an awesome little piece. If you had spliced in a shot of the crowd going crazy when InControl gave his little message, it would've been amazing.

Pretty cool vid, however the voiceover seemed a little dry and forced. Also the transistions where pretty abrupt.
However its miles ahead than anything i've done in my media classes, so gw.
Oh and more footage of the crowd would've been nice. They seemed rather passive in the footage you showed, and the fact that incontrol was saying how loud they got when he won.
Also the text seemed kinda out of place. Maybe you could've used the same sort of graphic MLG used to introduce players, or atleast make it more consistant.

Nice work! This kind of videos should be used to promote ESPORTS. Also, using the growing TL meme: You misspelled ESPORTS.

Hmm, it's pretty good. I can see it broadcast on a local news channel as is. There are a couple things to improve upon I guess. I felt that while your intonation was nice, it was very slow. Atleast slower than your average speaking speed, I don't think you have to slow down to make yourself more understandable. Don't news reporters on site all go crazy fast? People can follow it for the most part.

So that and the early comments, it did look like 2000's documentary style footage. One guy said it gives it a believable feel, I disagree with that. While it does give a believable feel for a 2000 documentary. It's not and doesn't fit, so it doesn't give a believable feel for a 2010 style.

I'm not sure what else there is, I'm not good to notice little things but I heard people said you replayed clips. Never do that because people will notice and they can get distracted by being the feeling they get when they discover it.

Best of luck and I hope you can post a piece of a broadcast in the future where news clip from you got used.

Very well done! I'm sad that you didn't have more time to work on it other than the 90s time restriction, and the views that the people being interviewed expressed were very interesting to me, so thanks for sharing that too!

Great news piece, but the footage from your camera makes it look like this comes from an 80s news cast.

I LOL'd because it is true!

Also want to say that this is the sort of news pieces we need for people to actually understand eSports.
Usually the questions are stale and don't focus on other things than how many ours a nerd has to practice, or how they "got into gaming". Seriously, old person making news piece. He is a young person in 2011, gaming is natural nowadays.

All in all, good job!
