In reply to UKH News: I not impressed with the intro. The delivery is as exciting as stale bread, and his face is half hidden in deep shadow. Voice requires intonation and he needs to move about in front of the camera, such as indicating the landscape, or interacting with it (walking through deep snow for example). Probably it's because of my background as both a photographer and teacher. The intro is the most important part of any video, get that wrong and we switch-off. The narator had to sound like he is motivated by his subject, turning the veiwer on, so they want to hear and see more. It can't all be done with stiring music, nice graphics and lovely photography. Look at an expert like David Attenborough and how he relates and communicates and interreacts with the viewer. Sorry to sound so negative, but a good idea that initially looks like it has missed the target. Very unlikely to buy this video.
