Hey Guys,
Made some of the changes to the video. Longer time given to read the quotes, Fixed the stretch, added some new clips, and the all important standing O footage . Let me know what you think! http://www.barronmagic.com/Video.html |

The only problem is that the video is 9:30 in length. I would follow the general idea that if you can't impress a booking agent or client in 2-3 minutes, you need better content. You've got lots of great content there so I would suggest cutting it right down to the best 2-3 minutes and you'll be golden. Leave them wanting more so they'll book the talent to get it.
Quality not quantity. All the best, Chris.

First, thank you for sharing and being brave enough for the critiq! Bravo!
My main issue with the edit is not any one shot. Its that I really don't know anything about you. And I don't mean name/quotes/etc. I mean personality. You didn't speak in the video until over 3 minutes into it. I agree 100% with Chris, cut it down in length. Big time. Please don't take offense to this, but based solely on the video, you appear to ME to be a generic illusionist who dresses very similar to Copperfield. I want to know more about YOU. You've got some very nice props. Now tell us why to hire YOU instead of the next illusionist. Make us care about YOU and like you on an emotional level. In the videos I produce, I usually have the performer speak on average by 24 seconds into it. Your off to a good start. Now just start trimming. |

You're obviously a professional, but I don't think a 9:00+ demo is necessary to show that. I'll second what the others have said. Great video, too long.
Warmest regards,
