I like videogames, so I didn’t think the sound effects were distractive.
Despite what John Seacrowe said the effects were great. I knew what ISO did and what Shutter Speed did from my Canon S5 I just upgraded to a DSLR and explaining things like a video game definitely worked for me :) great job on the video!
Great video for beginners!
