Can someone please critique this for me?

Greetings,

 

This video clip was rejected for quality issues. Can anyone please critique it for me? The only thing I can think of is that I shot it in C24 mode which was supposed too be "4K Cinema". 

 

The resolution is as follows: 3840X2160 at 24 frame rate. It doesn't exceed the min/maximum length. It's 10 seconds in length and I had uploaded a signed property release and there's no IP that I can see.

 

Does it have something to do with the title? Or perhaps is there not much of a call for this kind of content? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Color me confused. Did you submit a motionless video?

Why would customers spend up to $29 for a motionless video clip when they can buy a still image for under $1?

    I also noticed that the "video" didn't have any motion - but thought maybe it was a problem with the playback on my end...

    The white object in the center of the frame appears to be blownout.

    Hello,

    My critique would be your white balance. It is too yellow. You should correct the lighting.

    Thanks for replying. I was wondering about that, the problem is all these new "LED" (i.e. house hold) lights aren't balanced very well and I don't have any studio lighting. The auto setting in my camera does a somewhat good job however, in this case I used the cloudy setting for drama. I was wanting a warmer WB than what the other settings offered and I can't correct for it in post cause I don't have access to the necessary software to correct it. What I have that can export in 4K doesn't have any WB settings in which I can edit with other than adjusting the hue which makes it worse! Thanks again for your valued input and have a Happy Thanksgiving.
