Over the coming weeks we are stating to integrate videos of our notebooks onto our website. We've completed the first video of the Optimus II; you can see this here:

Shortly we will have some full 360 degree rotating shots added, but if there are any suggestions on how we can further improve these videos, please post them here!

:D

Nice vid
Whose arm is that??
Also see you didnt chose LDUK to do the music for it :p

I think a full pan of the keyboard would be better rather than random zoom shots of parts of it

Also if possible have a track bar to be able to skip trough video and/ or a play/pause button

There are no plans for videos of PC's, but if you look at our YouTube thread: http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?607-PCS-on-Youtube or http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?464-New-PC-Videos-MUST-SEE!-) you can see lots of home videos there!

We're working on the track bar, it's not working at the moment for some reason. It's the video producers arm :)

LDUK's music was a little too "aggressive" for us I'm afraid...

Nice video :)

One suggestion: I feel that the cuts between shots are a bit too harsh and abrupt, especially given the music, maybe put a fade transition in instead rather than a straight cut?

well - for me it would be good to see it in use I guess to give an idea of the speed, screen quality etc

I actually thought it was pretty good lol. And I do agree with JSG10. That video has the need for a couple soft transitions. However, most of the solid cuts are fine, as they well go with the string plucks. But I noticed some didn't, which is where the fades should be.
The video should start from directly above, slowly moving towards it (preferably from out of focus, to in focus). Then to the second shot of the video and the rest is fine (with added fades). It can be cut shorter, by revealing more in each shot, cutting clips of parts that have been shown but that's if you want.

Here's a big one, is this a gaming laptop? If so, and your audience is gamers, I'd suggest a complete change. More of an extreme video. Because, this is a lot like a Mac kinda ad.

But thats two cents. :)

Promote your laptops by sending one to Will It Blend! Actually more seriously, I don't see any PCS laptops reviewed on NotbookCheck. Am I wrong?
