Impressive! Great work, even though one can see some minor render/compositing artefacts.
Good work here!
I like it, but you need to grade the muzzle flashes, they pull you away too much. Also you may want to blur out the edges of the smmoke sims a bit more :) Pretty awesome stuff!
Great work ! The muzzle flashes in background seem a bit too synchronized sometimes imho...
Nice stuff! Well done!
To add with the muzzle flash and smoke ... there is something about the tinting that personally throws me off. Just doesn't feel "dirty" enough I guess. And the camera movement feels too planned, not documentary style which is what I feel you're going for. The easing I think is too soft and not jerky enough.
Though honestly these are nit picks and I think it looks great in itself! Well done!
Cool overall but the actors need to practice their gun kick back, will add loads to the realism.
check out Freddy Wong and his mates tutorials.
The enemy machine gun is synchornous - all four of them. maybe to delay and random is a good thing.
I think you just need some better muzzle flashes but other than that great job!
Hey guys, wow im flattered! Thanks for posting my short video - and thank you for constructive criticism. In fact this was a work-in-progress-video. I already did some troubleshooting and maybe I post the complete scene after its finished ;)
the four guys positioned in the background building really have a precise timing cause they are all firing at the same time. always. =P but really nice work ^^
Yeah, I fixed that in a current offline-version ;) Thanx for your comment :)
It's interesting. Of course, when one of the guys is dragged off in the background the drag pattern disappears at one point that just ruins it for me. XD
Nice Job! The real and 3D props fit in very nicely. I think the muzzle flash is a little bright, but that's just my opinion. Very professional!
did i hear the infamous wilhelm scream? :D

Another thought, you might want to use your defocus on the entire comp instead of the individual layers. It looks like the foreground soldiers are defocused, but their edges are sharp. This is not how defocus should work. Otherwise, good stuff!
Thought it looked great nice work.
