My project will parody many of the fan-made videos on Youtube that dramatize TV/movie clips and put them against romantic songs.
I really like the idea of this? The music is the perfect choice for what you're going for.
However, I do think you could have pushed this a bit further. At some point, the video just becomes a bunch of slow-motion shots with romantic music overlaid. That portion of the video is definitely less interesting. I think you could have made a shorter but more active video, taking inspiration from hollywood trailers and the like to make your video slightly more engaging.
Great work! I especially like the way you blend the audio and video together. It appears to me that the emotions of the clips match perfectly the ups and downs of the background music. Other than that the project is creative and would really grab people's attention. I enjoyed watching it.
I think your project did more than dramatize events from a TV show, you retold a story from a different perspective and very cleverly format that perspective through the selectivity of the screens you included. You cut right before the uncharacteristic laughter and leave out the faces of irony, so as to hide traces of manipulation on your part to tell the story your way.
