Opinions on new video preview

[Defiant]

I put this preview video together a little bit ago and am still not sure what I think of it. Take a look and let me know what you all think. If you like it, please tell me what you like about it. If you don't like it, please tell me what you don't like about it.

video preview

Thats not same Sammy that had her ass by my head last year in Tijuana is it?
Thats not the music I would have chose to go with that clip but thats only a matter of personal preference.

It could very well be. Her name IS Sammy.
That was the music that Red thought was the better choice of what I had that I was thinking about using. I was going for slower pacing with an erotic feel to it. Music aside, does the video "work"?

Anything can sell. It all depends on the niche targetted.

Bravo!!!!

[Defiant]

Thanks, Nick

I think its cool .. would have a logo/url possibly showing throughout at the top or bottom though as an overlay. Quality is great and the music could suit a lot of people that are normally overlooked.

They haven't supplied me with a logo to use, but I do have the URL in the lower left corner (without the "http://www.", though). Did you mean having it showing through a bit more transparently?

possibly mate, but it works as it is .. good job

Thanks, bro. On scenes I put together as web updates, I tend to fade it to about half of what it is in that preview (and even more faint for DVDs), but I make it full strength for previews to make sure the URL stands out.

Once again a top quality job

[Defiant]

Thanks, bro

Trailer was good. The domain name.... too many x's!

[Defiant]

Thanks, Mike. I have nothing to do with the domain name, though. All I am doing is making web updates, preview videos, and taking screen captures for that particular domain.

[Mike AI]

That is cool Defiant. Good job!

lower the music volume, and turn up the dirty talk... surfers like to hear the nasty talking + most music which can be licensed to porn movies sound like shit ;-))

Good point.

I agree totally!!!

I hate it when you can only hear the crap music

[MorganGrayson]

Defiant...the music has an "anticipatory" feel to it. ("Something is about to happen," to clarify for those who desire it.) As such, it would be more effective with the volume lowered.

Much kudos!

[Defiant]

That's what I was looking for. Thanks, everyone. I knew something wasn't quite right, but couldn't put my finger on it.

[Trev]

I would never have been able to advise that as I surf with my volume off.

I switched mine on specifically , in fact.

I've just watched it again with the volume on and I think it's bang on.

[Defiant]

Thanks for your input, everyone. It has been greatly appreciated. I love doing video editing because it allows me to be more creative than a lot of other things do, but sometimes I feel like I am just too close to the project and need an outside opinion.

Nice work
