needs some work. The first clip on High Ground seems like a waste of time. Midair collision isn't all that special. I did like that stick in Guardian, though.

No offense or anything, but that was terrible.

For 48 seconds, you're wasting time with a dull, boring, pointless clip with an annoying HUD and time bar on the screen.

Next, I see a dead guy, and a stuck corpse. So? Stick someone living. Congratulations on the grenade of no purpose.

Choppy camera work.

HUD again.

Player list.

Time bar.

Delayed explosion, game's fault or not, looks bad.

Choppy camera. 7 boring, actionless seconds of a guy walking around.

Player list.

Time bar.

You dying, horrible to put in a legitimate montage. Annoying, obnoxious text. If you have to tell us it's amazing, it probably wasn't.

Time bar.

Same lame clip again.

Random corpse, does nothing to support preview.

A grenade on the ground. So what? Get a stick. We understand you can look in the general direction of someone and press the trigger. Wait, you didn't even make that clip? You used someone else's bad clip. Why? Furthermore, don't interrupt your video to shove credits in our face. Credits go at the end.

Using an overpowered weapon, then running away. Not good for a montage, hardly demonstrates any skill at all.

You credited that terrible grenade clip as a stick. That's a blatant lie.

A preview should make you want to watch the full video, not deter you from doing so. Essentially every part of that preview was unappealing.

My eyes hurt.

No syncing, terrible clips, completely careless with camera work, and the rest was bad too. Thanks for the preview, now I will avoid the final.

Mature?

My friend, actually taking the time to listen to what they said as help, not complaints would be the mature thing to do. It's clear your new (right?) to this, and this is what you're going to have to go through if you want to get better.

Sorry for having an opinion.

My title does not impact my feelings. Staff or not, I'd say the same. I may be staff, but I am just another person, like any other. If you're going to attack my character, do so. Do not attack my position.

just a question...why the hell would you do a preview for a halo 3 montage? and it looks horrible. A movie i understand if you have a preview but a montage...yes work on directing and camera movement, take every hud off, etc,etc,etc...

The general idea and game clips are very nice however you need to learn how to better handle the theater mode better before attempting a montage.
