If this was your first video then you have a great future. There was some nice editing in there too.
As I am sure you are well aware, working with DSLR for video is not the easiest of tasks. The opening scene where the camera walked towards the cushion was not to my liking. It was shaky and kept coming in and out of focus. That's personal opinion and preference, so take it with a pinch of salt. Others here will like it. If it's a style you particularly like and have chosen then it's perfectly acceptable. Different clients look for different things.
I'm not a huge fan of hand held shaky footage in general and like to stabilise everything because (to me and most of my clients) shaky footage is synonymous with home movies and Uncle Bob. Again it doesn't bother many others around here, so if it doesn't bother you, and more importantly your clients, shaky footage is OK too!
For a first film I think you have done well...... keep it up!
Oh, and yes - it seems to have gone quiet around here.... though I'm sure there are many more readers than posters. Perhaps you can encourage more to post
