Reviews:
Theme 1
Entry 1 – A nice flow with good song selection. While the scenes you chose were lovely, there should've been a much wider variety of them from Aditya sir's many works. Also, the VM started and ended rather abruptly without any supporting text or other additions. A pleasant watch, still.
Entry 2 – Excellent selection of scenes from Aditya sir's films and shows, and nice song, all wonderfully edited together. You could've tried altering the style a bit in the second half just for a change, but nevertheless very good job! The VM fits the theme aptly.
Entry 3 – Another great entry – crisp editing and really lovely music score. Great selection of scenes; they're largely from CID but it fit the theme well. Loved the opening in particular and the captions made the flow and expression all the more better. Wonderful work! 👏
Theme 2
Entry 1 – You've mostly used length portions of scenes taken directly from the Chase/Dhoom episodes without much editing. But the song was good and fit in remarkably well with the visuals. The VM kept up constant pace and was noticeably engaging still – good work there! However, a larger variety of scenes and focus on Abhijeet sir was needed to do justice to the given theme. Nice attempt, though. Looking forward to more from you!
Entry 2 – I liked the editing and the song gave the whole VM a rather snazzy feel. Scene selection was okay but could've been much better. As has already been mentioned, this was too short and falls behind the given requirement of 3 minutes for qualifying. Do keep this in mind and I'm sure you can do much better. 😊
Entry 3 – Good scene selection and music. Liked the disguise part in particular. Nice work overall.
Entry 4 – Good attempt, but I think you could've broadened your palette of cap selection a bit. The caps' screen time was a bit too long and there are more facets of Abhijeet sir's character which you could've covered instead by shortening and adding other ones. The song felt alright, but the audio quality was distorted and I couldn't properly make out some of the lyrics. Nevertheless the flow was decent and it was good to watch. Looking forward to more!
Entry 5 – Liked your choice of music. Regrettably the visuals appeared a bit squashed due to technical flaws, but otherwise your selection was very good, and so was your editing. There were a few parts where the music faded and the original episode audio remained; the attempt was good but somehow I found it slightly jarring. You could try experimenting with selective audio trimming/mixing or completely muting for better results. Nice effort overall.
