ZCW Halloween Havoc 13

[King Of Spice]

Enjoy guys!
This is my first attempt at a long fed, and it took 3 days.
In the future, my Feds will be 16-20 mins, but this was slightly rushed because I went to a Pyro display tonight.
This was made on my phone, yes. However, my mom and dad are getting me a camera and a tripod for Christmas. Any advice would be welcome, but all in all, enjoy ZCWs debut event!

You don't need to make your fed really long to make it good man. Long no way means good. I would work on pacing and making sure the poses are consistent the whole way through. My fed is always around 15 minutes. I would work on making sure the joints are being moved well every pose and also making sure that the pacing of the matches is correct. Start slow and build up to the end. Also make sure you take your time with a match, every pose should be the best you can do, look back over your pose and think is that the correct position.

I would rate this, 4.

Thank you for the advice Jack. To be honest, I felt this fed was rushed. An I'm actually quite proud of that rating considering this is my first show. For the start of Survivor Series, I've been working really hard on posing. The matches are gonna be roughly 300 pics long each, and I'm gonna work really hard to make my fed credible. Thank you for the advice.

This was good man, but just like Jack said dont worry about having long feds at the moment. For your fed I would say instead of trying to make feds that are 16-20 mins long invest all that time in focusing on every detail and pose in your match, and every camera angle and the look of your fed like ring, crowd, stage, etc. Because its better to have short fed with excellent posing, good camera angles and good lighting than to have a long fed with rushed poses, over shot or too close camera angles and dark lighting. You got some good ideas in your matches but for now really focus on the little stuff that makes the viewer continue to watch, e.g. No one wants to watch a dark fed when they cant see whats happening. Hope this helped bro, keep up the good work. Also it looks better to have the crowd just standing there with nothing guarding them then having them being barricaded by ladders.

Thanks a heap mate! I'm definitely taking your advice, and I'm going to buy a lamp later this week, so my lighting will improve. I completely agree on the posing, as there's nothing I hate more than a fed with bad poses.
