" good shots but perhaps a bit more of a variety. At 00:20 when she's walking you could speed it up as its quite slow. I really like the shot of the car and headlights as the girl is walking towards the camera, this is a good effect. The fades between the tree shots are good too." - Louise (Media Student)

I agree with the comment that the shot of her walking in the distance is too slow tempo and the shot is too long with the slow music, when i re-shoot i will consider doing more close up shots of the character as thats a convention that most indie rock music videos follow. As this was a first attempt i only organized to use one model, but by using two this will give me a wider variety of shots and add performance into the video not just narrative alone.

I also think that the headlight effect accompanies the lyrics "light burns within" well and i will be using this same effect in the final video. This shot works together with the use of the torch so i think using light in interesting ways will be a major part of the video.

As the beginning of the song starts slow i think i will use the fade effect more frequently before the tempo picks up towards the middle.
