Looks fine from here. Really, the only thing that jumped out at me was the date – 11.10.09 – left me wondering if it’s being released in October or November. But that’s not your fault. 🙂

Seems OK, I would get rid of the F&*& word though doesn’t add anything to it just detracts.

Alright thanks good advice. It didn’t show but what happened in the video was that the host of the game disconnected so the game froze or paused in the video. I wanted to show the impatience of most players when the host disconnects. But I guess I zipped by it too fast for ppl to understand what that part was.
Due to the soundtrack being only like 2 seconds with that techno rip i thought it was a good spot to put it.But thanks for the advice I’ll be more pro. and choose a word like “darn that host”
HAHAHA -
I agree with that After 20-30 seconds, I had seen more then enough. (maybe that’s because I’m not a fanatic gamer??)

Alright yeah makes sense. I guess it is true, based on interest.
Thanks for the input. -
:27-:39 and 1:00-1:14 not really needed. I may have cut the scenes to the music a bit more. Awesome titling. Action scenes were great. Why not use your editor to add move movement such as some zoom and pans etc. I had no problem with the F….king Host comment since I film in Second Life and probably make the same coment about LAG…lol. I’m not a Gamer but I do see a lot of the Macfinima produced and this edit is pretty good. I saw the movie and it is excellent. This is a pretty accurate trailer. I’d cut the snow machine chase as it doesn’t seem to fit. Ending scenes were aweome.

Aite sounds good. Thanks for the critique. I agree the snow scenes don’t fit. But some of the gaming parts, i wanted to show off a bit. I guess this isn’t really a “trailer”. Since the game is not out yet I wanted to show the actual game play.
I’m not sure if anyone noticed but at the scene [1:00]when the rocket launcher hits him in the “gamer footage” it goes the the game footage when your character is damaged, hence the “red screen”. Not sure if that cam through. any tips on making it more profound or salient?
Zoom and pans? what do you mean by these I tried to play around with it at the last part of the scene [1:27] when it said modern warfare 2 I used some of the pans. But i’m not confident enough to use it to its potential, do you have any examples?

What I meant by pans and zooms is you can use the pand/crop in Vegas to zoom in and pan over the video footage much like you would over a photo. I have used it more for zooming usually for dramatic effect or to make bring footage a bit more exciting. This video (link below)has a few examples especially cropping. If I don’t get the best composition while I’m filming I can crop it in post and sometimes if you zoom in a bit it softens the image for a film look. I probably haven’t panned but cropped a specicific section is what I meant but you could pan over a scene for effect. by the way the text effects were bloody marvelous :-).
