Good energy to the film. Philadelphia looks beautiful, even with trash as the main visual.
Wonderful job with this video! Definitely my favorite by far out of all the vids on this site. I hope you win!!! music rocks by the way!
Very good!!!
This footage was nicely shot and the content is really very interesting!!!
Nice job guys!!!!!!!!!!!
Footage looks great, I like the approach to the subject. Not a in-your-face environmental feel either- much more approachable.
Very interesting! The clips of Aaron working were cleverly interspersed with the sit-down interview so that his points were nicely punctuated. This helped contribute to the approachable feel mentioned by Greg above. Professional stuff guys!
This looks very nice and is a great subject. It’s an interesting concept I had not heard of. Cleaning the city and creating jobs without producing more pollution. I like it. The clip was great to watch. Informative without being too confrontational. Nice, professional job.
Edits, were a little rough. I however liked the consistency with colour through out. A good second.
Very strong piece of work with interesting shot angles, closeups and overall sharpness! Work on the early transitions (although I realize this is an abrieviated piece). Really tells the story. Bravo!!!
Great job – the music works well with the corresponding shots and I loved the split screens! I also liked how Aaron’s personal take on the job was included so he wasn’t just another employee.
This is a cool video! I like that it is a simple story about someone trying to help the environment in a simple way. Good job!
Great work! This video really expresses the level of commitment that we have in Philadelphia to working together to create change. Cinematography is completely on point! The work fully expresses the content in a way that magnifies it for the audience. The filmmaker(s) have really expressed the level of workmanship that goes into The Philadelphia Pedal Co-op – maybe even putting it on a higher level for the viewer. As such, I, the viewer, feel more inclined to take action in my own life, which is the most crucial in a video. Beautiful!
I enjoyed this very informative video. Thank you for sharing so much in only three minuets. Great Job!
Awesome! Good editing, catchy music, and nice angles.
A job well done, informative and fun. Nice choice of music and shot selection.
An interesting and relevant topic that’s been given justice by professional camerawork and slick editing.
Well done. I’d like to see more.
Love the way this video begins. The viewer really gets a feel for the subject and the job. The only thing I’d like to see is this guy working in really bad weather- ice, snow, rain, wind, etc. I bet it’s a little more challenging.
Well done…probably the best one I’ve seen so far
Very interesting subject. Awesome job!
