First Match

3/10.

The camera issue you discussed, so I'l leave that part out. As an actual Match, it wasn't too good. The idea that Mick Foley could only withstand two Lightubes in a Lightube Match kind of defeats the purpose of the gimmick, as they should be able to go through many Lightubes, which would be the expectation of the viewer going into the Match.

The poses were pretty stiff, which is a no-no. Dreamer's DDT was the best pose of the Match, as it was decent. The Arena and Weapons/Garbage Cans were good, the lightube shots were nice, but again, the Match was way too short for an actual Match, not a Test Match, unless that's what it was.

So just work on length(If that was meant as a full-length Match), eliminate the stiff poses as much as you can and the new Camera you have on the way should help you. I do think you have talent, so hopefully you'll get started with your Shows soon and head the advice your given by me and others here.

yeah it was a test match and my first, and i hope the camera works wonders.

[quote author="@whattheisrop" timestamp="1279022681" source="/post/3543085/thread"]What was the point in just posting this one match? None of the camera work looked good, the lighting was atrocious, and even a new camera won't miraculously make your pictures clear or even legible. The match was far, far too short, and you've pretty much destroyed any chance of Mick Foley being taken seriously in your fed, since he just got taken out by two lighttube shots. It isnt hard to make a passable attempt at pic fedding, come back when you invest at least a little time and effort into something that the rest of us have dedicated huge sums of our time too.[/quote]

Well said.

And for the future, this was a match which should be posted on the discussion board.

It isn't really that I just wanted to bash, there's rules and they're there for a reason, it was a single match and so should have been on the discussion board, and even then, it just seems a complete lack of effort. I know if it was me, I'd come back with something great, to prove everyone wrong. I wasnt just being a dickhead, I seriously could find no positives in this. I can forsake production for booking, or booking for production, but this, really, had none.

And I ing HATE figures with "Best of" or "1 of" stamps on the leg.

Well, he did ask us to rate it. And if he expects to get replies around here, he's gonna need to heed constructive criticism and pay attention to the rules. If he's serious about doing a pic fed, he'll take the criticisms, check out some other feds( a good start would be Freedomania) to get an idea of what a quality fed/matches look like, then come back with a better product. however, most of the time, this is all we get...a misplaced match with no follow through. If he's willing to take that step up then, many fedders, myself included, will be more then happy keep supporting him. But from what, I've seen thus far, doesn't look like much has been invested, but that's just my persepctive. Unfortunately, that's the standard...show something, talk about it, never heard from again. carltonfan, i hope you prove me wrong. Anyone, that's willing to show dedication to this hobby and make improvements will certainly be a welcomed addition to the community
