Being a guy who has recorded a couple radio commercials and been in production of a couple video projects, I'd have to say that in general you did a good job. The direct interview with actual players is a good way of doing a field review, it gives real world opinions and adds perspective from people other than just those of the videographer. I do have a few suggestions for you to work on in post production. I don't know if this is your first review or not, so here goes:

- Work on your audio editing,
-there is a lot of muted vocals when switching from the direct interview to field footage.
- also see if you can tone down the ambient noises (Wind, etc.) if your camera is the usual handheld (Without an external mic) try attaching some sort of spongy muffling material over the mic hole. think of your average boom mic (The fuzzy covering is used to muffle wind interference). thick felt or some sort of faux fur works best, the added material breaks up the wind before it hits the audio receiver.

-Edit out or work on your "umms" and "uhhs." doing a lot of public speaking myself this is the hardest thing to work on, I was always called out on it in college. dead time (No speaking) is always better than umms and uhhs, especially in an audio/video presentation because it can be eddited out in post-pro.

- I'd spend a little more time highlighting the aspects of the field, both pros and cons about the terrain and layout. (differing terrains, locations and accessibility of respawns, etc.

All in all you did a great job, being someone who has never been to cool combat myself I gained a great perspective and feel that when I do make it out there, I will be more familiar with it unlike my first time at CDWC where I was lost as hell and a little overwhelmed.

Thanks man I really Appreciate it and yes this is my first review, My crew plans on doing plenty more and I hope we get better at we go on, I'll def take you video editing tips to heart and focus more on the field because lets be honest thats what we all care about.

Why limit this to field reviews? I know of alot of teams out there to and that a review of them could help new players looking for a team to call home. Juat an idea and gives you more to practice your skills on.
