[B]Back with another video![/B] Not a very long video this time, sadly.. I didn't get time to film as many as I wanted, but DAMN!
There were some AMAZING costumes at this convention!!!
My camera also went out of juice, rendering me useless for quite some time. But hey! I made a video anyway, and I'm quite pleased with the result :3
I have no idea how much time I spent editing this video.
And I got a new camera! I got the Nikon D5300 and I love it!
[B]Also! I took your feedback and tried to improve the shots, focused a lot about location and the entire costumes this time around.[/B]
Feedback is most welcome and wanted.
[B]Everything filmed and edited by me. [/B][I](EXCEPT "0:39 - 0:47", this part was filmed by a friend, which explains the loss in quality at that point.)[/I]

Top-fucking-notch mate. Focus, music, cinematography, color grading, and editing were all on point. Any little issues are outweighed by the fact that the overall professional quality here could stand up on any major YouTube channel.
The only real criticism I have is that the closing title card at the end is 30 seconds long. It doesn't really need to be any longer than 15 seconds - any more than that just kind of feels like a cheap way of extending the length of the video.
Also, any relevant links (Facebook, Twitter, other videos, etc) should be the first thing people see when the closing title card appears. People generally aren't going to wait the 5 seconds it takes for your info to appear, so you've got to hit them with it fast (but gently - you know, with class).
The shots are definitely better, but a few of them still feel too cropped or zoomed in. The assassin's creed lady, the anime basketball dude, and the Han Solo in particular.
The stepped camera movement was also pretty jarring. I'm not feeling that the cuts fit to the music and it made it harder to get a good look at some of the characters.
(E.g: I have no idea what the other assassin's creed lady was dressed as I'm just assuming she was an assassin.)
Other than those minor gripes, I liked it.
