  • Adriaan 2 years ago
    The images are nice, but I don't like the added tilt-shift effect the way it's used now. (I assume added, since I don't see a lensbaby or something like it in your list..)

  • PF BENTLEY plus 2 years ago
    Very well done in all aspects. Great film. It's so counter to the happy bright color life here in Hawaii. Powerful imagery.

  • Brennan L. 2 years ago
    I love the colours.

    The blurred vignette was a little overdone in places, but some shots really used it well.

    Great work and very cool color correction. I've got some footage of Coney Island that I have to edit one of these days... (screenshots here: flickr.com/photos/seldoon2/sets/72157622952817238/show/ )
    Nothing that comes close to what you did anyway :)
  •  
  • J.Corte 2 years ago
    Love the shots and the color correction of course.. They let the shots speak for themselves.. Please keep up the good work..

    Could you maybe in the future make a movie about how you color correct in magic bullet looks. I'm very interested..

    Nice feel. Lots of money shots. Was the last high shot filmed from the train?
  •  
  • Marie-Louise Gariepy plus 2 years ago
    Love it, wonderful work! It provide an inside feeling, not so much of Coney Island as it is but as it feels. I've been there a while ago (may be 10 years ago). This video felt like a part of my memory of this special space that seems to have been taken out of time at one point.

    Simply beautiful. You've put so much personality into each shot!

  • Megan Leigh Sweeney plus 2 years ago
    Did you add a white border (like a photograph)? Beautiful images. My Mom grew up on the upper west side, close to Zabaars.

    Josh - really nice. I posted it to Facebook. Beautiful little film. Thanks for the help today @ Apple.

    I come from the same arena (photo studio- L.A.) so I dig your eye on that level and how you've translated it to video.

  • Geoff Whitman plus 1 year ago
    Amazingly beautiful.

    Some of the images (Willams Candy at 1:45, for example) are enough to almost elicit tears.

    Well done, sir.
