Jawad, thanks for sharing. I thought you had pretty solid editing overall; captured the event well. I wasn't a fan of the "push" transitions you used. I also wasn't a fan of the greenish tint that the video had. Props for editing to a song by the Smashing Pumpkins (pretty sure it was them).

Honestly, that's the first time I have used transitions in a wedding highlights. I just used them based on movement up, down and sideways.

Thanks for the green tint feedback

I have seen your work on your website before and really enjoy watching it

Thanks, Jawad. Regarding the green, it's hard to pull it off for a wedding I think. I tried it once with the highlights for an outdoor wedding and in the end it's probably just not the best choice for color. Always good to try something different, though!

The clip was well edited, good sense of how the day went. I liked the sorta of strobe effect you matched with the music at the beginning.

One comment regarding the Bride's speech, is it just me or she sounds like this will be the beginning of a long hard marriage. lol

Jawad...

Thanks for sharing. I liked the video. I enjoyed the edit and song selection. Didn't dig the transitions to much during the dance scene. Everything else... Looked awesome.

So far that has been the downside...the transitions:) And personally I hate transitions in general as well but just wanted to try something different in this video. I guess so far didn't click. Thanks for honest opinion:)

Jawad,
overall very solid highlights clip, dynamic is just as it feels like for that song.
Personal observation, I am not a big fun of dutch tilts, that were here quite often,
some shots seem a little dark, wanted to see more of a close up on the faces of B&G on
emotional moments.
Thanks for sharing!
