Critique some Nature Documentaries

[fishkeeper]

I shot these over the last month or so and have been in the process of editing them. If anyone cares to check them out it'd be much appreciated.

Marine themed, but y'all hopefully will find them interesting.

You got some great footage; I love that you got close enough for the camera to be knocked around a few times. I also like to get physically close to the subject rather than use the zoom when I'm filming, but I don't get the same interaction when I'm filming through the side of an aquarium. It was difficult to hear your voice at times over the music though, and I'd also prefer to have David Attenborough narrate all my wildlife documentaries.

I think it's lovely!

No offense, Joseph, but who wouldn't? I wish he could narrate my entire life.

Nice filming, i liked the bit where the orange fish hit the camera it was a nice touch and showed how close to the action you were.

Thanks guys! I agree on David Attenborough-that guy is a G...well, you know what I mean! It has been rather tricky to get the voiceover/music volumes correct. Building a story is also a bit tricky. I actually improv'd the voiceovers after I thought out a storyline.
