I was lucky it was on clearance at a best buy in a small town in the middle of no were I had to open a credit card with them just to take up the chance. That's the only new thing in my computer I was able to get it in January, but it's starting to show age, also when video doing video editing and audio production its not cutting it and my system freezes or crashes 90% of the time makes it hard to do anything for my production classes exsheshaly now with covid :(

I saw a lot of people posting their videos for constructive criticism, so at the risk of being called out for entering with an already decent pc, here's my entry:

I think my main issues are my script and general editing issues like audio...

I'd kill for an rx460... According to UserBenchmark, it's 300% better than what I have now.

 

I mean, I've been planning to build a new computer, but I've decided to wait until November for multiple reasons.

 

1) I'll know the results of this contest by then.

2) AMD will have launched it's Zen 3 by then, so Zen 2 should be cheaper.

3) Black Friday

 

Just goes to show, some contestants have better PC's, some have worse... It comes down to execution on the videos.

Hmm, looking at last years top 29 rn, I think most if not all of the entries Ive seen on this thread are on par, if not better than them, good luck to you all!

Obligatory "this is my video" post. 300 word script in the first 54 seconds, so about 5.5 words per second.

 

 

1) I know it's meme-ish

2) The brass instruments towards the end cover some of my VO

3) Could have had better B-Roll instead of stock images, but I'm talking so fast that video cuts might be even more jarring.

I like the premise! I have that same HP Envy 700-214 actually, it's barely alive by a thread. I know the pain of long ass boots.

Close. HP Envy H8-1534 as is with no upgrades. But yeah, we're both 7+ years behind.

And like you said in your video, you didn't do a generic commercial or rig showcase. I think 2 years ago, one of the winners did a rap, which caused a lot of people last year to do rap videos, none of which won. 

 

Last years winners really pushed the infomercial which you are seeing a lot of this year.

This year has been SO MANY INFOMERCIALS, which means a lot of entries aren't going to win. If an infomercial wins this year I will be very dissapointed.

As of now I can pretty much confirm my submission aint winning as it basicly just an infomercial style. good luck to the rest of you though.

It was well edited. Microphone seemed to be peaking a lot, but you probably didn't have much control since I'm guessing it was a gaming headset. Depending on what phone you have, you might be able to get better sound with that if you record in a little blanket fort and just transfer the file to your computer.

 

 

The shot of blowing dust off the GPU hit close to home...

Thanks ! I was more wondering about the content itself. I watched a lot of videos from last year and about 200ish videos this year just trying to get an idea of what I can do. I did see two raps this year but no songs. Honestly after I posted it I wondered how many people would even recognize the song. I'm not old but sometimes the things I mention remind me that I'm up there.

As far as I know I haven't seen anything like my video in any year's submissions, I'll be honest...

We were just speculating. Who knows what they're looking for this year. And really if you think about it, is anything truly "original" at this point in human history? My video is different than most others, but it's still just a rip off of Ant Man.

 

Don't worry. As long as you had fun during the process and maybe learned something along the way, it's still worth it. Winning is an added bonus.

I'm fairly certain that they're just looking for people to do ideas and videos that aren't like the other submissions, because every idea has to have a base. I think your idea was quite original compared to other submissions.

So like, if mine were to win there would be tons of parodies next year? That would be neat to watch haha.
