my video attempt... thought I'd share

Pat Ordenes · 02-15-2010, 10:24 AM

I haven't done anything like this since my uni days, so I thought I'd share and get some feedback from my fellow warriors...

Crewlife Explained - a sketchy approach

Thanks in advance!

Sean Donahoe · 02-15-2010, 10:31 AM

I like it, very stylized and well co-ordinated. Nice quality and sound quality. I hope you get a lot of signups!

All the best

Sean

Damn! That's great. I love it. Well done with the example of Sarah. If I was a flight crew member, I'd be joining this network. You made it very clear how it would benefit me.

And, I love the cutouts. It's unique.

Kelly Verge · 02-15-2010, 10:34 AM

I like the style.

You highlight a LOT of features, but only briefly do you discuss benefits.

Pat Ordenes · 02-15-2010, 10:37 AM

Thanks guys...
It was actually a favour for a friend of mine.
She came up with the whole crewlife concept, quit her job (a high-paying one, I might add!) and has gone head first into this... I hope it works for her!

The cut-outs was a desperate last resort... my partner walks into my office and sees all these cut-outs around... confusing for her.

globalpro · 02-15-2010, 10:38 AM

Pat,

Well done and very different. I really like the cut out approach. Really holds my attention. Plus, I think the length to be just right. Not long and drawn out, straight to the point. Nice touch on adding the example of Sarah.

Well done.

Thanks,

John

I'll give you 'two thumbs up' for that video. Very creative and well produced. That's one of the better videos I've seen in quite a while.

Pat Ordenes · 02-15-2010, 10:50 AM

Thanks for all the feedback guys!
maybe I'll do some more!

And yeah Kelly, I realize the benefits were not as pronounced, but unfortunately, I only wrote the first draft script, which got changed to focus more on the process.... since it's new and all..

opiel · 02-15-2010, 11:03 AM

It is a very nice video and quite interesting idea. I always wanted to be a pilot. Well, there is always another life...

Swastik · 02-15-2010, 11:08 AM

Pretty damn good matey.

Which software did you use to create it, if you don't mind?

Kat Bartone · 02-15-2010, 11:12 AM

Love it!

If you wrote up a report on how you did it, I'd buy it!

Kim Standerline · 02-15-2010, 11:12 AM

wow that was so cool

I really liked it especially the cutouts, what a brilliant idea

Kim

Pat Ordenes · 02-15-2010, 05:06 PM

Hi Guys, Thanks again...
I'm keen to do another one now

Swastik, I used Photoshop a little, just to 'cut out' the scans I did.
I also added the shadows on the cut-outs there, just to make them pull away from the backdrop.
The rest is done in Flash CS4, which has some great features...
I was originally going to do it in a stop motion sort of format, using my hands to moved things around. I thought it would be cool to see the hands coming in and out.
This would be another way of doing it if you didn't have flash!

joshril · 02-15-2010, 05:14 PM

I love the cutouts! That's a really cool video! If you decide to offer a WSO with these "cutout" type videos, I'll take at least one...

Music City Copy · 02-15-2010, 05:17 PM

I really loved the video...it was very clear, the cutouts are awesome, and the voice sounds great.

Maybe a stronger call to action at the end? Offer a free trial or a link to the next video which tells more about it?
