Kriz89 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 A short travel film featuring tourists discovering Paris, a must watch for any Parisian who takes the city for granted! :)https://youtu.be/gsF9hsRJyng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajal Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Has anyone opened the above link yet. Only I tend to be averse to viewing what appear to be bogus 'youtu.be' links from someone who only signed up for Complete France 2 hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriz89 Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 I promise it's a real link to YouTube haha! I started making these little short films about my hometown in my spare time, but the reception I got from them was so overwhelming I decided to start tackling cities around the world, and Paris is my first! I'm trying to get a London one done for this week :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tancrède Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Yes, very nice. And thank you. I especially liked the bit with the Parc des Buttes Chaumont.But if there are interesting visual images (which there were), and if there is also speech (which there was), I don't want to be assailed - in addition to these appropriate delights - with various random selections of musical fragments which are :a) inappropriateb) self-indulgentc) too loudI am sorry if this is blunt. But in fact it is flattering. Your well-chosen images and your voices were sufficient and pleasing. And a little bit of distant accordeon is naturally de rigeur. But your preference for incessant and obtrusive background musak (and I say nothing that I wouldn't equally say to BBC Radio 4) is really trying and makes me want to press either Fast Forward or Off.

Kriz89 Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 Thanks for your feedback! I'm not a big fan of the music either, I'd rather something more subtle, but unfortunately due to copyrights, I had to go with Creative Commons music, as well as the fact nowadays, videos only get attention among younger people if it holds their attention and keeps them engaged, and pop/vlog-type music seems to be what keeps them watching. It's a shame, but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alittlebitfrench Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Chancer (alias Ghost Rider) did a video of Paris once...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH1-tieh9rAFor someone who has spent half their life on that road, that has to be the maddest thing I have ever watched !!!

ebaynut Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Well Kris89, I took a look, and I must say I thought you had done a good job with your film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
