No comment as per your drumming coz I am still very new.
But as per the video ...
I guess brighter/additional lights might help.
Dark/Black background, Black tee-shirt and Black drums ... err ... don't really stand out from the crowd.
You'll need something more eye-catching for the judges to notice you first; amongst all the other contestants.
The guy who had his drums setup outdoors at night and the other guy who had lights in his drums; are among the few that stood out and grab your attention. And then there is another guy who hit his cymbals with his drumsticks [suddenly I thought of chicken drumsticks ... damn ... i must be hungry again!!] pointing downwards. IMHO, in the event of a tie, personal style will determine whether the vote goes to you or the other guy. But first impression always determine whether you are amongst the front runners.
Having said that, I wish you the best of luck.
Personally, I would have attached some reflective stickers to the drumsticks. It'll give the impression that the sticks are going really fast at the drums
Hahaha ... but then, that's just me.

Yeah totally agree with you! My appearance in that video was not so attractive as others. Well, actually that video was made last minute. I got to know about the competition 2 days before the dateline, so I went up to my friend's studio and straight away record it. and when I got back, I realized that my camera lens was out of focus,that's why the video looks a bit blurry. hahaha. I decided not to mic-up the whole set coz it'll take some time to mix them and I'm scared I wont be able to finish up before the dateline. But. overall, it was a good experience as that was my first recorded drum cover.
Btw, thanks for the comments, really appreciate it.
