This video is so annoying, please dont ever do close ups on peoples faces like that every again lol. I couldnt watch the entire video.
Just a different way of doing things :) Sorry!
I agree, too much in yer face, wants to be set back like the one with the other Intel guy was..
God save us from the 'creative' types with video cams ;)
Keep it simple, keep it sensible :)
Thanks for the feedback. We're always trying new things and thought this would be a fun way to make a bit of a change from our last few offerings. But if the people don't like it...
So this guys name is Donald McDonald? I dont think his parents liked him :P
Agreed with the close ups, nice idea, but you ended up a little too close toward the end.
The zoom button was sticking on the camera... :PQuote:

Other than that, it looked very professional :).
I'm indifferent on the choice of shot, close ups are there to show facial expression; not really necessary here :P But I agree that you should have a play and see what works best for you. I think a mix would've been better.
I do agree with the choice of editing, it was too quick and fast paced, almost felt like a showdown in some cases. Put it on mute and I'd be expecting one of you to reach for your holster ;) Maybe the guy from AMD lurking around in the background still :D
I'm really liking all the Hexus.TV content so far, it's exactly what I want to see on the internet and it's moving things forward. We now have the technology to make videos the norm as YouTube has shown so why not get some decent content out there?
As regards with the editing I have to agree with what's been said so far, just tidy it up a little ;) At one point the camera was focused on the Intel logo in the background rather than the guy which was pretty distracting, I know Intel must sponsor these videos having their logo at the end but seriously...
Overall a MASSIVE step in the right direction in my opinion, good work!
i hate to talk about the actual making of the video rather than what was said but...
It sounded like you where using the mic's on the cameras, which is a no no cos you can hear the camera men rattling about. I did notice a mic clipped onto dom and you could hear the difference between him and (i assume that was) David, who sounded like he was just being picked up by the camera mics.
I think if you got a cheap little mixer and a couple of clip on Condensor mics for who ever is talking and a cheap compressor with a gate on it to hide all the rattling and hum in the background, it would improve these videos so much!
really good vid, good to see hexus get the top guys
Actually we almost exclusively use tie-clip mikes, but we can't always choose our interview locations and they can be pretty noisy - so even short-range mikes like this pick up a lot of background. Your best bet in this environment is a short-range, directional handheld mike. Which I suspect we will be using more of for vox-pop type stuff at shows. :cool:Quote:
