I need your opinion about my Video...

20 replies
I bought Frank Kern's Video Black Box course... Great course.

After watching the Video I just create one for my Weight Loss Email list. Of course with the tips from Frank Kern.

Here you can check it out:

Pleas, let me know what do you think about the video.

    I stopped watching at 38 seconds. I have no idea what this video is about and you have just wasted my commercial watching attention span of time. Now I'm going to go back and watch some more to see if its interesting.

    *edit* I'm at one minute in and I finally see you. Let's see if it gets better.

    The content was decent. You looked a little itchy there with the scratching. The audio was terrible. Get a wireless mic, a shotgun mic or something with a windscreen for those windy days.

    Since its for your mailing list, I think you can live with the long intro...but I'd try to make it a bit shorter if possible. Good effort! keep doing it!

    Do you have permission to use the batman theme song?

    I stopped watching after the first 10 seconds, when it seems that your using material without permission.

      With all due respect, unless you're prepared to see a massive unsubscribe response from your list I'd chalk this video up to a learning experience and try to make the next video substantially better.

      Just because you created it is no reason to use it.

      Not trying to be brutal, just don't know what else to tell you.

    I stoped watching after a minute, not realy catchy. First few second are meaning less, and afterwords the video is boring.

    If you want to give it to your list, you should try edit the first minute for sure. First 10 - 15 sec is the one you need to catch the viewer's attention.

    Sorry to tell you that, ask again after you edit and I will love to give you a good review.

      I like the beautiful scenery; however it's somewhat difficult to run on the beach, even for those who are in great shape - so the video seems to be targeting the wrong audience. Also, running with the camera made me feel a little sick.

      I like how you emphasize that you can incorporate exercise into your daily routine, even if you're traveling - but the waves slapping against the rock make it difficult to hear you and to understand what you are saying.

      You might consider remaking this video without the Batman song and with an emphasis on incorporating exercise into your daily routine as part of an overall healthy approach to weight loss.

        I give you an "A" for Effort for your first DRAFT!

        You've got good ideas...USE them...

        But I'd suggest to follow the advice of all of the other posters....

        There's LOTS of Royalty Free music loops online

        Don't give your viewers motion-sickness

        Hold off on scratching...etc.

        Then, let us see your fifth or seventh take and we'll give you some more feedback.

        HEY! You're DOING it! 98% don't get THIS far!

        Onward and Upward, dude!

          Wish somebody had told me that a couple of years ago. :p

          There were some good ideas in the vid. Unfortunately, I couldn't hear a lot of it.

          I would storyboard the next attempt. I'd also consider using captions.

    Not really a good video. Maybe you need more practice. People should realize from the beginning of the film what it is in it. Not this case. But dont give up.

    No quite ready for primetime. Do not send this to your list. You need to practice more. All it takes is repetition and you will get more comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. Right now your to stiff and the words are not flowing. Fix the sound quality. You can get a wireless system for cheap like the azden WMS pro wireless system from amazon or record it separately to a handheld recorder and a lavaliere mic. Sound is everything, it is a real quick way to lose all followers if they can't understand what you are saying or the background noise is to over powering. Then I would draw up an outline of what you want to say and make it flow coherently with and end result in mind. Last I would fix your alignment in the camera and you will be on your way. Remember Frank Kern is Frank Kern and you are you. Try to find out what works best for you. You can only find that out by doing video after video and getting comfortable. I used to be a film actor in case your wondering how I know this stuff and have made and produced film.

    A few points:

    1. This is for your weight loss list, but what has this video got to do with weight loss? You say you do a lot of push-ups (we don't actually see you doing them) yet it takes an awful lot of push-ups to lose weight!

    2. As others have said, using the (copyrighted) Batman theme is going to cause problems, so ditch it and get some royalty-free music. I don't see the relevance between Batman and you walking on the beach anyway.

    3. I don't know what camera you're using for this, but the sound quality is AWFUL. If the camera has an external mic. socket, invest in a tie/lavalier microphone so the background noise doesn't drown out your voice. If the camera doesn't have an external mic. socket, invest in another camera!

    4. When you edit, make sure the music track is at a lower volume than your vocal track.

    5. Practice your delivery. It's better than a lot of people's but it's still a bit wooden and mumbley, and things like scratching are distracting. You'll get better with practice.

    6. One static shot of a piece to camera looks a bit boring. Do a couple of versions of pieces to camera, one after the other, but with different zoom levels, then pick the best parts from each take and cut them together with another shot (cutaway) in between. That's what the pros. do.

    All in all, not a bad first effort. Like Ruben says, 98% don't get that far. Keep at it, make your material relevant to your audience, improve the sound, and I'm sure your videos will get better.

    If this is your first attempt, it's 100% better than the first time I made a video.

    But I still wouldn't use it.

    Also, include your website address somewhere in the video, even though it's going to your list people might forward to friends - or you might eventually upload it to youtube.

    Good luck.

    Hello warriors,

    a few people are very direct, I like it! I will improve my Videos. I create this Video to see if I can start to communicate with my email list with Videos.

    I love to watch Videos, don't like to read.

    Thanks for all comments and I get it, the video is not the best
