Nice first video, you've got really good performances out of the performers, especially the walking street scenes, i liked that a lot. The track is really strong, really well done.

I REALLY like the street shots, the stood on the car shot, it works with the track very much. Did you do the washed out look in camera or in post?

As for feedback...

Stylistically, i don't think the the blue/green screen sections with pictures in sit well with the rest of the sequence. The street scenes are strong, and have a real washed out, gritty edge to the shots. Cut with the cleaner cut chroma key, almost weather report style shots, it doesn't work for me. (unless this was a style you were going for then ignore that)

Also the shots at the start seem a little too washed out, maybe youtube has processes all the colour depth out of it, but i think it could do with some more grading work especially in the first few shots and the graveyard spot.

Other than that, it really fitted with the track and nice first vid.
