VO-BB - 19 YEARS OLD!

FinMac

Greetings from a cool place, Finland!

Getting inspiration from Lance Blair's earlier production of a video demo, I finally put something together in iMovie. Actually there are 2 of them.

Which of them is better in your opinion?

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks for your time.

Mac

Can't access the first one, it's set to "private".

cheers,

Hello Andrew,

Thanks for letting me know. I apologize to anyone who tried to check it out and could not open it. It is corrected now.

Hi Mac,

I think they both sound great, but for image flow, I like the first link better. The only thing I might suggest for that one is to possibly shorten the first example. It just seems a bit longer than the rest.

Hope that helps!
Fran

Actually...scratch that. I just took another look at it...the length on the first spot is good.

My vote would also be for the first one, out of the two.

I like the first one. Nice voice.

How'd you end up in Finland?

Thanks for the complement and encouragement.

How did I end up in Finland? To make a long story short - I married a Finnish woman.

Hi Mac,

Both look excellent, but I agree with most of the good people here and think Number 1 takes the biscuit. The water visuals made me gag for a gin & tonic.

Thanks George for sharing you opinion about which video to use.

I have gone with the first one. I love the video these guys produce and working with them was a real feather in my cap. My concern was if my voiceover from the first one was strong enough. I loved the video they did.

Their showreel from 2012 blows me away.

Here is the link if you are interested to watch...

By the way, it was just water, pure water, no gin!

If it helps... am leaning towards the first one also..

And I've just seen you've gone with the first... see, excellent choice! Smile
