WWII Video for School

Their Finest Hour - The Battle of Britain

For school :D

Their Finest Hour - The Battle of Britain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NxyrHK-XNQ)

[Number02]

You could have used some better music I feel :/

Otherwise pretty good. I also love how a Sabaton video shows up in the suggested viewing next to it xD

My ideas for better music would be:

Aces In Exile - Sabaton (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48fOkIhacz8&feature=related)
Aces High - Iron Maiden (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZO6giM9UAv0)
Band Of Brothers - Michael Kamen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZOJ0_sRznM&feature=related)

My only critique is at the ending before the text; it felt choppy. It cut to the text way too fast. Maybe have the last bit dissolve, slightly, if you know what I mean. But this is me being picky since I like to edit videos. :P And did you compile it?

And Number02, Aces High would not fit well for that video because it does not start off with a siren warning of the air raid, the sound of the guns sending flak, nor do they show urge to get airborne for the upcoming attack. I do not see them gathering speed as they go down the runway. :P Anyway, the song was good.

You may have a valid point.. :P

Thanks for your critique :) It hasn't been turned in yet, nor has it had any of the extreme nit-picky tweaks thrown at it. I'm just looking for feedback. I very much value yours. I'll look into making it a smoother transition.

And yes, I did compile it. Took me ages to find all the video, especially video without that pesky I Came From the History Channel logo, lol.

My song choice was made based on personal tastes as well as what I know the teacher who will be doing the grading likes. She eats this sentimental type stuff up. Plus, I chose an instrumental song from the beginning, before I found Eric Stanley's cover of B.o.B.'s Airplanes because instrumental music allows for the film to speak louder than any lyrics.

Plus, it was sort of ironic :)

It is good, i did enjoy watching it

My critique would be that its not exactly much to do with the battle of britain perse
its more about britains battle and part in ww2
but i think for something that says battle of britain it needs to be more aviation based on the british side, i saw lots of bombing scenes and parachuting scenes from the brits, but it should be more about british defense, since thats pretty much what it was

I would have shot myself compiling all of that random footage. :P And I think that the song you chose worked very well.
