Help with new video

I have been playing with getting a promo video that does not follow the trend of fast cuts, heavy graphics and titles, this edit is even without music. This is the rough cut so far, I would appreciate your feedback before I put it on my site. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xndc48OsVRU

Jubilee street party?

Especially love the little old lady at the end.

It's good, lots of reactions, lots of vox pops. I could only suggest bookending it with a static picture of yourself as there's not as much of your face as you might want?

Nice work my friend,

Ideal showreel, lots of reactions, lots of magic and lots of laughter. Just what any booker wants.

All the best
Steve

Hi,
I don't do card magic for my Children's shows so for me there was too much card stuff but each to their own and we all do different things. As long as it works for you. What I loved most were the reactions you got and as for the lovely lady at the end....Priceless. Well captured and well done.

Hello Jomarchan, thanks for the valued feedback. The show reel is not for children’s shows, its purpose is to show mix and mingle magic at a family event. Like you, I do not do card magic for children, this is my children’s magic show-reel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuOUz4L-Krk
