I think they look pretty good overall, just a few things stand out to me. All of the images seem noisy, especially in the shadows. The pool seems to have little depth, the walls below the water aren't visible in draft-2.jpg. This might be because of the refraction of the water. Also the water looks flat and over exposed. Finally, some people hanging around would seem appropriate for such a community setting.

I would maybe try making the birds eye shot into a dusk scene where some of the windows in the shadows start illuminate and show hints of the interior space. It would give the building some depth and interest in the dark area. As for the street shot I would lower your camera down to true eye level and pull back a tad if needed to capture the whole building if possible, the current perspective feel off a bit. Overall coming along nicely.

even though work on this project is still ongoing, they needed a short promotional video to use this week. i wish i had been able to include some people in this, but it was all i had time to put together
