Because why not? Give me a video to review and I'll sit back, watch it, and personally tell you what I loved about it and what else you need to work on or capitalize on...also, consider it a free view. If I like it, I'll definitely subscribe for me (maybe that's a good incentive for people to reply to the thread).

Anyway, post away! Doesn't matter the genre!
 
Thanks, I always love some feedback.
I currently don't have access to my channel (blocked at work), but you can pick one from my channel, my videos are only 1 minute long :p
 
Fire away :p (quite scared actually)

Can't put a file in but its called Valiant Heart The Great War Part 2

No worries! I picked the latest video: "Dogs and Bubbles".

Adorable, just plain adorable! I really like the background music and how you use multiple camera angles and shots during the video. It's also very short and sweet and the point - I was interested the entire time.

I think my only real advice (and this is being nitpicky because I think everyone should improve on something) is to maybe insert yourself in your dog videos more, just so the environment is a lot more relationship-oriented. You obviously love your pets VERY much or else you wouldn't be recording them, so maybe show some of that love by engaging with them on camera more. Again, I had to be really nitpicky because your channel is very good.

Hope that was a good review :) Subscribed!

Aw, thanks!! That is really lovely :D I was considering what you said already, so it is good that you confirmed this :) It is hard to film the pets and myself at the same time though, because using a tripod is not an option when they run around like crazy :p

First off let me say that your channel art is the BOMB! Really nice.

Not sure if this was only on the video I watched, but the intro was about 35 seconds long. I would recommend cutting that down to no more than 7 seconds - keep it short and sweet and to the point.

Your voice-overs have a very nice medium. You're not obnoxiously loud but you're not boring either - you're a great in between. You have a lot of potential on your hands and have the ability to blow up if you stay consistent.Just a few tips:

Try and avoid those awkward silences that you tend to have during certain parts of the video. It's not everywhere, but when it's present, it's noticeable. Talk about something - anything, it doesn't even need to relate to the video at all.The last tip is to try and project your voice when you can - remember, you are speaking with an audience, and even though you can edit your volume to make it louder, projecting your voice immerses your audience into your video more and makes it a lot more interesting.

Keep it up though! :) You're doing great thus far!

Aww don't make me get teary eyed! You definitely made my entire month. Thank you for those kind words and the excellent tips! I only started about a week ago, talking out loud is weird and I've been gaming for years but it's always been like you talk in your head sorta thing. I will work on those areas!
 
It would be awesome if you could watch my Supercars In London video! My channel is like marmite, some people love it, some people hate it (mainly because they think my videos are pointless lol, they sort of are :) )

Very unique channel - you also have a lot of potential because your niche is so different from everyone else.

It's a bit hard to comment on yours and criticize because I'm not sure what the standard really is for car videos. I will say that the quality is very good - you can clearly see the vehicles and I love how you give a clip of how they sound as well.

I would say my only suggestion would be to maybe write the model of the car on screen with some text (or even add a voice-over with that text! That's even better!) and maybe some quick facts about the car like its engine, wheels, speed, etc. This makes the video more enticing and gives the viewer something to ponder on while watching.

Other than that, it's a very cool channel. Very cool. I actually shared it with a few of my friends (about a dozen or so) since they are really interested in cars. :)
