Some easy tips to make your video better: (This is all just my opinion)

*Get the camera off yourselves and place it on something else, like a sign on the wall. When people CAN'T judge you for your clothes, mustache, hand movements, or whatever... then it FORCES them to listen to the MUSIC... and leaves open the imagination for the listener. If the listener feels so inclined to figure out what your personal appearance is, they will research it. This leaves the listener wanting more, like wanting to come and see your performance live. So start booking some gigs and save your performance for a live audience.

If you do keep yourself on camera:
*Don't read your lyrics to the camera.
*Change the video to black and white and add some vintage style distortion.
*Put the camera at somewhat of a weird angle instead of so straight on.
Those are some really good ideas and will definitely incorporate into our next video. (I especially like the black and white idea) I wrote the first song that week so the singer didn't know the words yet. (I didn't like him holding the lyrics either) We have recordings with just audio but we recorded these to enter in this contest, so we were trying to follow their guidelines.
