Atvaark,Kragdrim,Nostromo,WilLoW /BBR/ French JE Contest vid

This was our (Atvaark and I) entry for the French AMV contest this year. Unfortunately it didn't get the reactions I expected...

The concept needs to be explained before you download the video : it's a recursive multi-editor project.
The first segment of the video was done with Cowboy bebop as a source footage
The second segment was done with the first segment as a source footage
The third segment was done with the second segment as a source footage
...
and so on.
Consequently, video quality and variety decrease with time, and the creators had to fight against the lack of footage.

This was probably the most interesting vid I ever made, on a creator's point of view. Apparently this is not the case on a viewer's point of view

Anime : Cowboy bebop
Music : Aphex twin - Bucephalus Bouncing ball

Yeah... These type of videos just don't win the hearts of the internets like they used to.

Downloading for great justice. The recursive nature is something I wish I had thought of.

I'll hit you back with what I think of it.

I thought it was fucking incredible from a creativity point of view. This is the kind of stuff that makes me very jealous. Bravo sirs.

I thought the pacing and the nature and flow of the video were just impecable. It starts out as rather gimmicky techno dribble but evolves quite quickly into something just awesome and abstract, while still being very entertaining.

Everyone should download this thing. Its very arty art, but it walks that fine line very well and leaves you with an overwhelmingly enjoyable experience in my eyes.

Since Oto isn't around, I'll have to say it. Congratulations, you've made a RPBP:***, or something.

Pretty good, though the flashes towards the end started to bother me towards the end.

<- and pimpage guaranteed.

Haha, I instantly fell in love with it when JCD told me about it and then showed it to me a bit later. The concept is so weird that I simply have to love it. The editing is a pure brainfuck towards the end it's like a real drugtrip, and it never get's boring. Moreover it's interesting to see how you guys differed and reused the footage of the eariler parts. Well it's the best Video I've seen so far this year. Keep it coming
