  1. The black and white color choice and music help to get the loneliness aspect out but the footage choice seems to be a little bit more towards the calm or tranquil side of the emotional spectrum.

  2. I liked the fade out. And theres no better place to demonstrate loneliness than in a forest. Good work

  3. Great colors! The black and white really brought it together. Loved the intro shot of walking through the grass. Only critique: a few more shots of the solitary person instead of scenery would have really brought the "loneliness" part out.

    Great video!

  6. Very pretty and slow paced. I like that you chose to greyscale it rather than use colors. Though, I would of liked to see you in more shots or just have included yourself at all. (Assuming you're the girl)

  7. I thought it was very well done, the music added a nice vibe to let you know it was more of a feeling of loneliness instead of peacefulness. The shot where you were walking through the field and it faded to white was probably my favorite part.

  8. I really liked the use of a POV shot at the beginning. The transitions that fade to white are also a nice, contemplative touch. The melancholy music gives the video a hint of sadness while also peaceful at the same time. I don't really have any criticisms, I think its a pretty solid video.

  9. I like how you made the video in monochrome, I felt that really amplifies the emotion. The fade to white at the end made for a nice ending. I like how you kept in the sound of the crickets in some places.

  13. It is contemplative solitude. Since you included yourself you needed to continue with the theme and include more shots of you interspersed throughout. Sometimes when you only do something once it can either be forgettable or seem like a mistake. The fade to whites coupled with the BW was a very good choice.
