"The Widow's Treasure" by Creative Mayhem Productions - Reviewed on August 3rd, 2009

That was great. Makes me wonder if you used footage of you actually working and turned it into a filmfight, or if you had the opportunity to rip apart that wall just for this. I like it.

"Guitar Haiku" by Yes Maam Productions - Reviewed on August 3rd, 2009

Dang, I wish you would have been able to use your own song. Also I agree with justin on the text being hard to read. I do like your crossfade though, because with the combination of the slow panning and the cross fading it gave the video a peaceful feeling.

I'm going to have to agree with Letneper about the cross fade. I think it works well here. I did have a problem with the text as well. very hard to read. other than that , well done.

"Tie Haiku" by Hippojuicefilm - Reviewed on August 3rd, 2009

What kind of camera do you use? The video quality always impresses me. Well shot and funny, but so far "play" is my favorite from your group.

"Christ Daily: a video Haiku" by Yupfrank Productions - Reviewed on August 3rd, 2009

At the beginning I think all I hear is "the cross I wear" and that would be only 4 syllables. Sorry I don't want to bust your chops, but it seemed important to mention. I liked the song you picked, and the video was feel good.

Noticed the same thing about the opening line. I don't mind the religious theme for this though. I always felt Haiku traditionally evoked a deep feelings on a subject and that is obviously present here.

I agree with the two above me. All you need to add is "that" between "cross" and "I" and you're good. I know the theme is religious, but it didn't seem in your face to me. The first two lines rhyming made it that much better.

How did you do the remote breaking special effect? Great concept! One of the best this month due to creativity and humor.

It was a mix of speeding up the footage so the remote goes flying faster, and just adding in some explosion effect from some stock footage I have from detonationfilms.com

how the heck did you make this? What program do you use for the effects? I love the narration, music, and camera shots. Great all around.

Thanks! I used After Effects for the effects shots, and edited in Final Cut. I built the jet elements in Photoshop. Glad you enjoyed it.

"How Do I Say This?" by See Movie Productions - Reviewed on August 3rd, 2009

Well we've all felt this way before. Hmm pretty good, but I feel like i would have liked to have seen a face shot or the guys eyes or something where you can actually see his indecision.
