Title of thread: Please Review My Travel Vlog Style Video
Self review: This is a different style of content that I'm experimenting with. It's kind of what you have to do when you're trying to search for what type of content can take off. I did not film any of this myself. Every thing you see see here is from Envato Elements. I tried to get a music track that really set the mood. Also I tried a "gothic" font for the thumbnail that would help build on the vibe I was looking for.

Great music choice, I think it fits very well! I'd recommend syncing the cuts to the music's beat, this way the video feels cleaner and more satisfying to watch, like footage and music belong together.
You said you didn't film any of the footage yourself so maybe it was all the footage you found, but I wouldn't use the same clip twice, or if you do want to use it twice, maybe put the second clip in the middle (so: clip A, clip B, clip A). Using the same clip twice (second time immediately after the first) may feel like an editing mistake to the viewer.
And my last recommendation is: Maybe let the music play till the end? The text after the footage is part of the video, but since the music cuts out beforehand it kind of feels like it isn't, like it's"just" the end screen.
Other than that, I really like the vibe of the video :)

Great video; the music sets the scene. Mind you, I'm a bit biased; I'm from Northern Ireland.

It looks very rushed imop, you have an obvious editing error showing 2 segments of the same thing. I get it...using stock clip art for instant content, but naming this a "virtual journey" is a bit of a stretch and viewers might feel they're getting bait clicked after viewing it. I think it's a decent start... but you can do so much more. You easily could have zoomed in, panned around, etc, in both of those segments to create even more clips. Plus why not add some stock photos as well for more content? You could transition from pics to clips, etc, and provide a much more satisfying "journey" for the viewer. Plus...even better... how about some AI voice overs and detail some facts, history about the castle during the video? Good idea, concept, great music, it just needs a better overall production now. ;)

Hi There, I am not an expert but on my personal preferences I will say this: You should review the video before exporting, there is some scene duplicating at the beginning. I think the video is a bit short and you could get more footage on it. The idea is 100/100, the music is 100/100, but the text at the end, I think there should be another way to present it and make it more attractive.

hi LibertyLinks,
Didn't mind the video clip and the music. I felt it was too short, unless that is what you are going for and the end screen was way too long.

I am no expert.

Good luck with it all

Well shot and music is relevant but it seemed too short and the end part was just waiting for the video to finish. We all learn though- If I look back at mine I'm so critical and hate them TBH! lol

"Virtual Journey " may not be the best title as it implies actual virtual tour. Since the video doesn't deliver a virtual tour, I would rename the title to something else. I love the music. More then one stock video would help. I think a voiceover talking about the destination would help a lot.

I really like the music, I was really confused with the first 2 clips as they looked the same. I think some of the transitions could be a little smoother and maybe a few extra clips but it's overall a good video

The video is great, especially the camera angle & how you have shot it. The only thing that needs improvement is Thumbnail. It can be more engaging. Thank you

You have duplicated cuts, I think the video is too short. Usually, these videos are played in the background in restaurants or dental offices where people can watch the screen and enjoy beautiful drone shots. If you manage to make it longer I am sure you will have more traffic

I got Lucky, I am from Ireland, At 13 seconds you repeated the same clip, a similar clip, it's important not to repeat yourself on YouTube, don't give people a reason to stop watching, also you could have shortened the video by providing the text/location details during the video, otherwise nice video!
