Still, thanks for the effort in putting these clips together. Next time use your own eye when you're editing clips, sit down and judge whether or not what you're trying to show off is enhanced or distracted by the effects you've chosen. | ||

A lot of people are pointing out the darkness filter, which I agree isn't really needed. Music choice, you aren't always going to win and I feel that type of metal fits with the "pimpest plays" theme. The text was kinda meh, but the transitions were pretty good. You can always redo it if you feel the need to | ||

I believe you had more focus on making the video awesome with effects rather than content. Which is missing the point. But dont get me wrong, I am not pooping on your production, I am trying to give you tips for the future! Things to think about next time (because I really hope you keep this up, the idea is awesome, but you need to polish it): 1: Too much material to cover: 3 years is waaaaay to much material to cover in one video, you should have done one for each year at tops. You missed some of the pimpest plays over the years (in my oppinion ofcourse, but I believe may would agree). 2: Keep awesome looking effects where they belong: Some effects (and screen cutouts), even though they are beautiful, it makes it hard to appreciate the pimpness of the plays at almost every occation in the video. Place video effects and unrelated awesomness in between the clips that show pimpness. That way the effects are more lovable and the pimpest plays more lovable. 3: Keep it to the original speed: It's hard to understand what happens when you speed up the gamespeed in a video, and again, it's hard to appreciate the pimpness unless you relive the play at the original speed. 4: Music sync: Who doesn't love music sync! It's awesome! You have done that really well in this video, but again, keep it where it belongs. Do not edit the actual video to match the sound by cutting out important stuff, speeding the clip or slowing the clip. You gotta match it by using longer/shorter clips (where it is possible, so you don't cut out important scenes) or do not audio-sync at all. Priority number one must always be the pimpest play! All this comes from me with good intent and I really hope you can take it constructivly. I love this kind of videos and I really hope you dig deeper into this and perfect your already good skills! best Kim | ||

I also forgot to mention cropping. Dont do it! Mini-map is a vital part in understanding what happens in the game, even if there's a crazy ass micro bit that's going on, because questions always arise "is it a base-race? is it 5? 10? or even 25minutes into the game?" etc. best Kim | ||

You don't see the brood war ones say "good marine control". You don't see soccer (aka football) highlight videos label plays. You don't see NBA basketball best plays label stuff. *edit: this is a little unfair, some of the brood war pimpest plays give names. But try to be a little better than "biggest air battle" or overuse of "epic". A lot of the brood war videos that name stuff go for like "boxer's ninja proxy" or "willpower hold lurkers" or something to that end). basically don't label the play or "huge air battle", just label the game ("X vs Y 2011"). Keep it as simple as possible. The play is supposed to speak for itself stopped watching at idra moment because you can't have pimp plays mixed with silly moments or stupid moments (of which there were ones earlier in the video) I think it's bad to be honest, independent of issues with darkness. Poor selection and against the spirit of pimpest play/highlight videos. | ||
