Audi R8 Showroom Teaser

Hi there, I wanted to share with you a video I just filmed and edited today. I was at the Audi dealership in Nashua, NH. They let me take some pictures and film a video. Although I wasn't able to turn the car on, get in it, or take it outside, I hope you enjoy. It was awaiting pick up and well, who wants someone in their car when their not there . Comments and constructive criticism is encouraged. Thanks for watching!

it is off to a good start and looks decent. btw it doesnt look good at 1080p on youtube could be the website or some settings you had before exporting the footage but it does not play back good for me.

you need to practice more with some of your camera moves especially rack focus. if you miss focus when racking in a shot dont rack back to find it. just do the shot over it will look a lot cleaner. also not easy to nail focus manually with a 50 1.8 lol so i feel your pain. i try to avoid that lens when manual focus might be involved

Thanks, yeah its hard to do a focus pull with the 50mm Also I will have to look at my settings, when I exported, it looks fine for me but that doesn't matter haha, thanks for the heads up!

The missed rack focus was a bit annoying.
For some reason, I found I wasn't a fan of the bold letters in the opening. The font was the same as the font on the Audi plate in the store, but they were just a bit too "fat" to me. Sleeker font would've looked more elegant.
I watched it in 720 so don't know if the 1080 was worse.
I like the shots, movements, and editing. Looked like you did a pretty good job of keeping your video cuts with the music track.
Nice job overall!

Thanks a lot, I need to get a follow focus ring/tool. It will make the focus pulls a lot better. I looked at my settings and can't seem to find any mistakes for the exporting. As for the titles , like you said, I tried to get the same typeface Audi uses.
