Awesome Hype video! I had a hard time finding stuff to critique on this one. You shot choice was great and I could tell you pulled from a lot of different sources. Your edits were really good and you made great use of the nature of shots to make some slick transitions (loved the transition of the first shot of McDavid to Boeser with the light). One thing I did find though is that by about halfway through I felt somewhat pulled away from the SHL and I was forgetting that we were making the connection between the talk of Lions to the SHL. The music was great and fit well, for future edits just taper the beginning and end of a music track with a 3-5 frame fade on the audio and it won't be so harsh on the ears when it kicks in. Final critique, 1 or 2 spots the edits felt a tad rushed it was only for a second or so with a few quick cuts and you were back on track. Overall it was a great video and I hope you do more of them!

Great work here! I loved the footage you found of the destroyer, it fit in really well and made a great way to start and end the video. Again like the last video, I am nit picking a little here, but it would have been nice to find some way to associate the SHL players to the hockey footage in some way. I did really like the little graphics of the shots, saves and goals. It was a nice touch and really highlighted the action well. I didn't love the music you chose here though. It was high energy which is what you want for a hype video but I would have like to hear a bit more build to the music so I am getting more and more excited as I watch it as opposed to a consistent high energy throughout. That said you did edit well to this music so it worked ok. Edits were good only one I had issue with was when the cannons first fire, it looks like you just miss the beat of the music by a fraction. Again overall this is a rock solid edit and hope you make more of these!
