The opening shot would normally have me click off instantly. It's a dark shot of a tree and a few buldings. Open with something that will grab people's attention. The edit from 0:22 to 0:24 is unecessary.

Besides that, I like it!

Yeah, the opening was kind of weak, but I don't find 0:22 - 0:24 unnecessary since the /warp end is supposed to be kind of mysterious, you know.

Font choice is questionable... Doesn't really fit well with the logo in my opinion.

That font looks similar to the logo. Combine that with Roboto (for the sub text).

As for text animations, change them. You're jumping into scenes so in that case you need to have your text jump into view, not a slow animate in. Match up things with how everything else is.

The red text color is also a bad choice. The logo colors are yellow, orange, and dark orange. I'd use the orange with a shadow of the dark orange not blurred.

In the opening make the logo bigger, too small for me. It's like an opening to something great, you'd want the logo out there. Also since you have an animation moving in from the bottom left, do the same for another clip for the top right about 1 second after.

The edit from 0:22 to 0:24 is unecessary.
I do agree with this. It catches me off guard to be honest and it happens way to early. The song beat drops then you silence it? Good idea, bad execution.


I give it a 6/10

Well in that case give what the client wants :p

Overall, I do like it. Don't get me wrong. Good luck in future jobs! :D

I don't really know much about trailers but here is my feedback, I don't really like the text animation and 0:21 transition animation was a bit weird. But over-all a very professional trailer 7.5/10 for me; some of the blinks were out of beat as well.

I do appreciate the feedback, yes it was a mistake to silence the drop and I agree the first shot was slightly goofy, the other stuff you guys criticized wasn't under my control, other than that, you guys didn't leave an appraisal, do you mind leaving one? :p

I don't normally appraise trailers as I'm not into those as much.

I'd say around $15
The funny thing is that my you appraised my last trailer (that was slightly lower quality) at 30$ xD
