Hi Benoit, thanks for sharing your video with us.

I thought the video, combined with the music, was a tad too sterile. Due to the repitive nature of the slow pans, I found myself skipping through the video. There's also no real sense of scale to the snow - that is to say that there isn't really much to give the viewer impact. The video would have been improved, in my opinion, by:

1) Getting up high on top of the snow and looking down on the surround
2) Wider shots to put the house into context with the surrounding snow
3) A less sombre soundtrack
4) Starting with shots from inside the house looking in, or between the trees.Try and tell more of a story with the video to give more of a sense of involvement. Take the viewer on an adventure around the house to discover the snow. It's up to you, as editor, to tell the story...
