50 Ways For Your Partner To Die [Best Fun/Humor AX 2013]

*erhem*. Kept ya waiting, huh?



YouTube Link

In all seriousness, I've finally uploaded 50 Ways to the interwebs. I apologize for the wait. For anyone who doesn't know, I came home from AX to a dead editing computer and had to go through a lot of trouble to recover all the files. A couple gentlefolk came out of the web to offer to send me the copy I'd sent their contests to upload here, but I had a few minor changes I needed to make for it so the source material was necessary. Hopefully, it will have been worth the wait. </Gabe>

I seriously love this video. It's funny and it's got so much heart in it. You put your own original jokes in there plus you can tell you're a major fan of the games. Not only that but you actually went through the trouble of capturing all the footage yourself which just makes it even specialerererer. Like seriously, just gushing right now. Yes, ARs change and such but I can look past a few technical issues for a video that is so fun and full of heart.

I laughed harder than I think I should have at this...Awesome job. :up:

Overall there were a few issues concerning visual quality, (mainly shifting aspect ratios between clips), and half/three-fourths of the way through I think you should have incorporated more of the Leon/Ashley/Ada scenes, since watching Chris pine over Jill got a little repetitive to watch. Still, that was pretty darn funny and, problems aside, really nicely done.

XD this video! I know this video well! It's been so long since I saw a great video game AMV! :D I must say dear miss that I have seen people edited with Resident Evil and it only becomes alright. You, you made a music video to this game not just any music video but a comedy. A successful comedy at all. All I can say is I tip my hat to you and it was an honor to be a finalist in the comedy section of NDK against this video.

(copypasting what I said somewhere else)

As one of the AX judges, I must say I was very very pleased that it won :3

I just love how that video is so not about the editing, even if the editing is really good! It was one of those "ha, I see what you did there" for the first minute or so when I first saw it.... and then it just keeps going and going and going with that terrible (I mean awesome) lyric sync and just never slips up. By the end, I was grinning like an idiot. Awesome that it's finally up :D

It's one of those cases where a video doesn't try to win awards by looking fancy, but I can tell all the work and effort that went into it. Thanks for taking the time.

A well deserved win in AX2013's Fun/Humor category, and hopefully at a few other events its competing at as well. :)

Looking forward to seeing more awesome work from you in the future, Tsu! Great work. :up:

holy carp.

I threw this post on the forum and logged off figuring I might get a reply or two by the end of the night... I wasn't expecting THIS! :shock:

Seriously, my face is on fire. Thanks to everyone who commented, especially the people who participated in judging. I'm freaking out that so many big names I look up to enjoyed this video even before it showed at AX. None of my attempts have ever been received this way so I'm completely humbled and a bit in shock.

I'll do my best to not let you all down with future work. :oops:

Well, don't let yourself think like this you'll only get stressed out. just continue to do what you do.

As a big fan of comedy AMVs in general, I'm usually sad that there arn't more good ones out there.

This however is one of those great comedy videos. It actually made me laugh. I love all the little jokes and visual gags you put in there, it's stuff like that that makes a comedy video truly entertaining.

(my favourite bit was the "return all the stuff i bought her" line)

I'm glad you beat me at AX (no shame in losing to this!) and you totally should have won at NDK
great work I look forward to more from you.

I thought it was amusing, but the text and some other technical stuff made me cringe a little bit. <.< Overall, fun vid though. congrats. :up:

"No refunds, stranger." XD

I can't stress how much I adore this video. It totally makes me smile, and I will be watching it over and over for that reason. :3 The lyrical sync is hilarious, and I love the fact that you used all of that in-game footage. Those Ashley scenes...omg. Love it. Nice work. :up:

I saw this at Expo and I knew it was going to win XD The crowd loved it. As an editor of crowd pleasers myself, I offer you total congratulations -- you had the audience laughing a lot.

However I agree with Shin on this one, the technicals of this AMV are really lacking. Their are places where the sync feels completely off, and the text could use some work. I think you could have executed this idea with a little cleaner sync -- while maintaining the humor. Congrats on your win! And I am glad you finally uploaded this :)

Oh hello there!

At AX George, Mitch, Vlad and I were talking about this video several times during the weekend and we were all pretty excited that it won. I wanted to say congrats in person after the awards but I couldn't find you and had to catch a plane. Congrats and this was also my pick for NDK as well.
