i will have to agree with the guru, there really is no point to the video, the editing is fine but wheres the story, i mean you didnt even stay focused on a subject. Thats the problem

Il give you an example of something i would have done. Get the Human Emoton of it.

Mothers crying, sons sending video' messeges home telling there families they dont know if they will make it but in case they want to say they love em and wish them a happy cristmas. I mean that type of shit anyone can connect to. BTW Im a New yorker and That shit effected New yorkers the most You have No idea the smell that spread through the city, A dark musky smell of Fire and death that lingered for 2 weeks and i can tell you honestly Theres no Human Responce, For a video called life, all you showed was people going in to die, Things Blowing up and Arabs in that order and repeat.

Human responce is very inportant. Also The music should reflect such a responce along with being topicle.

The rules for making this type of video are do not make it seem like that type of video. I've said this many times, Dont try to pull the heartstrings, Try to simply reconnect the person to there own memories and they will do the pulling them selves.

What memories do i have of Bin laden, or scenes from World war 2 when we stormed the beach. None.

But i do have memories of people crying, people screaming and running to get away from the collapse of the WTC, Also memories of thousands of Letters and posters spread through NY of people in search of there loved ones. The human responce is a very significant thing for video's....

As much as i hate Network News i gotta say they know how to whore it. In USA recently a mine collapsed killing 12 people, and the news wont leave the family alone they want those tears they want the anger they want the pain. There not showing stock footage of mines blowing up. Thats the difference.

I think i would have liked the video more if you would have set it to benny hill music and made it a goof video. I mean anythings funny to that music
