It's too dark, it's badly compressed, giving a very poor quality image on you tube and it is hard to make heads or tails of what it is it's trying to say. So, you'd think people will just take one look and puke? Laughing

I have 6 five star ratings:

The loneliness of the long distance astronomer! It says a lot without saying anything at all. Well done! Very Happy

Didn't puke Ahad. Didn't take just one look either. Actually, straining to see created greater attention to what is visible. It also makes the viewer want to know/see more.

Your solo flight is a good beginning.

Ahad,

I thought it was interesting and mysterious.

Well done.

I agree with Carol. Excellent choice of music, too. It really added to my sense of 'what is he doing?' I let the entire thing download and watched it twice!

Thank you... you folks are just being really kind!

I'm just really happy I have so many friends out there...many of whom actually *care* about solo authors like us! As for the video production, the credit is really down to some very talented people I'm working with in a small media company - DCTV Media - here in Luton.

You can still correct what you see as defects in this Ahad.
Did you do it on MovieMaker?

You can reload the project and lighten it up. Also, pay attention to the format you save it in. Try to get it as close to YouTube format as possible.

Thank you Pol, I'm glad you think so Very Happy

Lin, thanks for the tip but I'll leave it up to the experts...

The night sky can be a portal into an abyss of surrealism... of strange dreams, of unearthly imagination and wonder...of hallucinations and beautiful illusions... and a lot more...LOL!
