After watching several times, very raw input :

- the movie posters joke at the beginning should be removed or put at the end, it distracts the viewer before it actually starts
- the way the beak moves is weird, the amplitude of movements should be smaller in my opinion, maybe it should also be slower (even if it is not in sync)

- i really like the rest of the animations of the duck, when presenting stuff and moving in the page, it makes the duck character fun and attaching
- transitions effects (zoom, slide...) are great

Overall it's very clean and professional, it reminds me the videos Google makes to present new products or features.

It made me laugh, it's quite fun!

Not bad. My suggestions, which are worth exactly 2¢:

Also the voice I'd love to see for Ducky is the natural voice of Harry Shearer, sample especially when Ducky has shades on 

I really like the video. I would suggest however that you make the duck's neck, knees, and wings bend. Currently they look way too stiff. Additionally the walk at 34 onward needs more personality. I'd try closely looking at how the old Donald Duck cartoons were animated to add more personality and really bring that duck to life.

I like the video. Your sister's voice is fine. Since most of your users are from the US, you don't want an accent distracting the message in the video. 

Great, I like the video and the fact that you're promoting ddg.

Some things i really like:
- the transition 0.18min till 0.20min (zooming in to the duck's head and showing the search engine)
- the zero-click explanation is very clear
- the short keyboard shortcut animation, funny and easy to understand

Some tips:
-I should like an intro that attracts more attention to the mission of the video (promoting ddg). The movie posters are distracting me in stead of getting my attention for some useful information. A really good way could be to start with some problems of the regular search engine(s). You can do this in several ways. Here some examples:

• with a list like the overview on 0.12min (but than examples of problems with other search engines)
  
• in a very short animation where the duck is struggling with some recognizable search engine problems
• articles from newspapers with those problems flashing by like the movie posters
  

By starting with some recognizable problems the viewer is triggered and somewhere in his mind he is looking for a solution. When you tell the viewer after the intro that you're having a solution (as you do from 0.06min till 0.20min) you will get the full attention of the viewer and a bigger change that he will agree with this solution.

-The "As seen" poster 0.35min till 0.37min was not really clear for me. Probably cause it's not mentioned by the duck.
-The "Customization" shot 0.40min was also not clear for me. Maybe a little more time for that shot and an example or some logo's from the different search abilities will make it more clear.

Anyway thanks for creating such a good search engine and as a bonus a nice feel-good promotion video.
Succes!!

I like it but the voice over is much needed no offense sis... but she did an incredible job of putting together the vid & script it'll click with most folks.

Regarding the intro, does no one get that it's a Simpson's reference/joke??

"This is my clean home page" sounds a bit grating.The duck's mouth should be animated on the home page, if it's animated on the results page (coolest is animated the entire time), and definitely during the end.Be careful not to "tell people they're doing it wrong."Show scenes of frustration with search engines that aren't DuckDuckGo. The "DuckDuckGo understands privacy" deal is very, very, cool, and kills two birds with one stone. (actually running the search, I notice that this is a great way to show off DuckDuckGo using Wikipedia disambiguation pages)

• reconsider saying "stupid sites"
• when the duck is not using his wings put them back like this:
• the movie posters are distracting

After watching the video, and likely will be redundant from other replies but here are some things I would do..

1. Remove the movie references. They don't fit, plus you are looking at copyright issues and you don't want that on your plate.

2. Agreeing with above comments, the tracking like "Google" does, may cause a stir. I would say like "other search engines do".

3. Would not say, removes "stupid" sites. Maybe "irrelevant sites" or some other way to explain them.

4. The effects are nice.

5. Would "after removing the movie references" add in a bit more about what you have and customizations.
