Shakil,

 

This is a very good start. The most important thing is that you picked a subject who is interesting. I was immediately drawn in by the images of this unique person (he writes much more beautiful letters using his mouth than I ever could with my hands!) and that is the most important thing with a documentary. In terms of the image, you have some very moving shots in there. Since this was your first day with the camera, I am guessing you didn't have access to a variable ND filter, but your outdoor scenes were a bit over-exposed. You had another shot showing the bike and cart that was a bit shaky and would have looked best on a tripod.

 

You framed a lot of very beautiful shots on this preview and throughout the video I was interested, so good job!
