IKWF State Video

Why did they show some interviews & not others ???. Also why no Highlight reel on this video like on previous years made the dvd kinda plain.

Someone went through the time to do the video. What did you do (other than complain about the video)? It sounds like we have a volunteer to do the video next year.

Aren't they SELLING the video?

If it were free that would be different, but if I'm buying a product I should be able to comment on it's quality or lack thereof.

Sorry, just caught this. Some of the interviews weren't recorded, stupid as that may sound. One interview had no audio, so I obviously couldn't use that one. The vast majority of interviews were used. It's not to slight any kids, it was literally human error on the art of the camera operator.

As for the highlight video. I made it and quite frankly, it wasn't very good. Not that what the kids were doing wasn't good, but my work was substandard. I made the call that i would rather not show a highlight video than show a bad one. I don't want to be thought of as a guy who phoned it in and that's honestly how I felt about my work, in this case.

I do appreciate the business and don't feel that I'm immune to criticism. It put a lot more focus this year in making sure the webcast was great and I think the highlight video suffered. My error. In the future, I won't let that happen.

The biggest mistake you made was setting the bar so high with your previous work which I have been a fan of.

If this had been the 1st video you did for the IKWF people would be happier with it because they wouldn't have expected much.

Looking forward to next year's video being your best work ever for the IKWF.
No more passes

Thank you for the honest reply that i can except that's all I wanted to know from the start. Yes, the match coverage was great just missed the extras. Look forward to next years.

Well the webcast was awesome. So good on you. We got calls from people all over the country who watched the footage LIVE. It was awesome.

Step by step.
