I really like the logo/intro design. Nice work on that. :)

The reel is pretty good. I didn't see anything that I flat out didn't like. The pacing is pretty decent, more upbeat and fast moving in places but not the entire thing. I like the particle work at different points in the clip. I've been thinking and more about incorporating such things in my work, but I hadn't really seen it used anywhere else. Thanks for showing that it can work. I like the color work you do, good grading. Other than that I think things look great and I wish you much success this season.

thanks alot Mike, really nice of you

it's funny because (and i've mentioned this before on this forum), i stupidly called myself 'FXFilms' not realising i'd want to steer away from 'FX' and get more into 'Cinematic'!
So i hope my main wedding demo comes across as having tasteful and subtle effects, and not being OTT :)

I really enjoy watching your video, some of your effect is quite eye-open for me.

Thank you for posting

Great work Richard.

The FX are tastefully done! You must be really proficient with AE or something similar.

I like your color grading for the most part. A few shots are little too "gloomy" for my taste.

Hope you are a super fast editor or you built up quite a few good templates. Otherwise, I'm assuming that this kind of work will take forever to do from scratch repeatedly.

Great job. Looking forward to see more stuff from you.

Great work AGAIN Richard, I really like what I've seen of your stuff/web site. We're Surrey based too and looking for another videographer to refer clients to when we're already booked. Are you already teamed up with somebody?

Tony

I like the AE work and the colors. In the Love Story segment, the shot with the person 4 times is incredible.....

Hey Richard, how many cams do you usually use at the ceremony, I counted two, could be off though. I was watching that top wedding montage.
