Nice stuff. Like some have said, unrealistic at times, but then again its skill not realism you're trying to show off.
Crits I had about the video's structure though was it started out real nice showing environments with the effect as the focus point, but then later you start doing some more complex stuff like battle sequences with multiple particle effects and I'm not sure what I should be focusing on anymore. Wish you had stuck with more stuff like the beginning sequences. Not that progressing/climaxing to other stuff is bad though, just have to do it effectively.
One more thing was I liked the way you intro'd yourself in the beginning, with the static fade in/fade out. I wish, though, you had been consistent and did the same or similar on the outro, instead of the lame movie credits-style after the music awkwardly cuts off.
And lastly, this is probably nit-picking since you're not going after environmental artist... but even a small scene to show application for those effects you only showed in the viewer would have been nice.
Hope this helps. I'd really like to see an amended version if you do one. Presentation does go a long way.
