This is my first "frag video" since the ESEA LAN video was mostly me just compiling the frags into one video without much thought or editing. As such, it would be cool if I could get feedback for this. C:

Also the diagonal lines in the intro was me not knowing how to use SFM, I guess.

BTW, I'm bad at titles.

The scout mids on gully were edited really differently, I think they'd look better with the same effects. Also, that last sfm part with the medic seemed pretty hazy compared to the actual clip. Otherwise I thought it was good.

that line in the middle was bugging me, other than that it was nice.

Get rid of the diagonal line. The transitioning between clips was not good, sometimes its better to use a simple fade then to use stock transitions in vegas or transitions you got from some vegas plugin. Using smooths to transition between clips also works well.

I know you tried to sync as much as you could but your syncs are off, try using markers to set key points where you need to sync the video just so your sync is more accurate (Hit "M" to create a markers on your timeline)

0:05 - scout's hands could have been positioned better

0:33 - work on text's colors and placement

0:53 - you started to cut the video to sync the scatter gun shots however, it wasn't accurate they were still off sync. Btw don't do that, it really killed the flow of the video much like the transitions did.

1:13 - the video stuttered, this is probably because the player whose demo you used took fall/splash damage, crouched or jumped. Also, it would have been better to have a moving smooth then still camera footage

2:54 - I see a red line in the solly smooth

your smooths need better angles, your colors need a lot of adjustments. I liked the smooth song fade transition. I see potential, keep trying bud

Lines were annoying, but other than that i really liked it, especially the intro.

Thanks for the awesome advice. I'll make sure to remember this for my next frag videos.

I got most of the demos from one of sin's free demo uploads.

Pretty good frags and music. Do you have a download link so I don't have to download it from youtube? I want to makes some gifs of some of those epic shots.

Those were some pretty sick frags. The frags made the frag video pretty good, but a tiny bit better editing could make it a classic.
