Good vid, but excuse me mate, don't you think you should start your own thread if you've got your own video instead of hijacking mine?

sorry - couldn't watch yours - school internet blocks it... teacher

Just though some people might want to see
And also - all these people don't want to scroll through millions of videos on different Topics.

sorry if I upset you!

Not keen on the random "shotgun" approach to the stills - they don't seem considered to me, just too busy.

The pan from the tow point cover to the badge a back again is a bit naff and unnecessary seeing as a sideways shot of the same badge occured a few seconds earlier.

If you do a 360, keep the entire car in the shot - create a notional centre point and circle it, not walk around in a rectangle

Whoever did the first driveby pan is a tad slow!

Not sure on the shot of the roof line from the over taking car.

The 306 should be doing the overtaking pretty much all of the time and if it is about the 306 solely then the camera car should not be seen,

All in my opion of course.

Great feedback, thanks!
I am aware of all of your points that you brought up and sadly I have no time to rectify these things. It was my first video I created and a few of the shots could do with re-shooting though.

Could you elaborate on your point of the "shotgun" stills? Do you mean the cutting of the shots to the music? How do you mean by they didn't seem considered?

Thanks for your time

I thought that there were too many shots in that sequence - some lacked context - like the side skirt shot at 0:31, for me that was just a shot of a skirt, it didn't give an idea the more aggressive look that it creates, some were a bit mediocre, the closeup of the air con, electric window controls and the numerous different angles of the seats, gearstick and dash - it is my opinion but I'd rather see one longer shots of the details that make a GTI6 a GTI6
