[NS] The Sound

I don't know why but the word cute kept floating around my head while watching this.

The beginning reminded me so much of Tsunami Jones's AMV Hell 4 BECK clip. I was only a little disappointed when the scene changed. The lip sync felt really weird, but I think that's mostly because of a combination of Beck's giant gaping mouth and the sparsity of the lines that you actually lip sunc.

I liked the mood.

Sucked.

I see the words Nerdstrudel, AMV Annoucements and Beck, and I begin feeling VERY excited.

Also, WHO IS THIS CODECHRONO PERSON?

Haha, yes, expect a full review and opinion coming from me in the next hour or so.

seemed really boring and it was inconsistent. i didnt like the lip sync in the beginning because the singer sounded like he was screaming and in the anime it looked like the character was talking into the mic. i thought that the some of scene choice didnt match the atmosphere of the song (ie. the beginning). you focused almost completely on lyrical sync and didnt give much attention to atmosphere and things of that sort.
sorry, couldnt enjoy it =/

First of all, this reminds me how much I love Beck. That in and of itself made me enjoy it.

[Also reminds me I have a beck video on the backburner that needs some attention]

I felt what the video attempted to accomplish was accomplished and accomplished in a great manner. The song was and oddly eerie tribute to Beck, and you highlighted the overall feel and atmosphere of Beck in a compelling way.

That being said, it wasn't perfect. The lip sync was far better in the beginning than towards the end, and while it wasn't horrible, it also doesn't match up to Creative Black Space. However, I don't think the video would have been as good without it. I think it was integrated just the right amount. Too much lip sync for the sake of lip sync usually ends up a bad video, so I was glad to see a nice balance.

I felt that the literal sync was taken a tad too far in some areas. The one that stands out in my mind is a line about "beer flowing" and we see an image of a guy guzzling down a beer. Little scenes like that kind of threw off the flow in a minor way which broke the continuity of the video.

That being said, I did appreciate the literal sync elsewhere in the video where it was needed. The lines regarding crowds, raising fists in the air, the band playing, ect. Those felt the mood of the song and did a great job entertaining me during them.

I also don't have to mention how awesome it was seeing the guitar strings matched with the beat of the music. That was really cool.

The only otther thing that really kind of threw me was that there wasn't anything "new" in the video. YEah, I noticed the coloring effects, and they were nice in the few areas that they were, but what I mean is that it was the standard beck formula that I've seen. There's nothing wrong with the standard formula, I just would have liked to have seen a few new things.

Overall, it was an above average video and accomplished its conceptuality, had some great scenes and flow, but lacked in a few areas that didn't take away from the overall enjoyment of it.

4/5

For a guy who hasn't made a solo vid in 4 years, I gotta say you did a good job.
