i hate 30 seconds to mars, but I'll give this a look anyway.

edit: not too bad, there were a couple spots where I'd have done something different, but overall it was solid, nothing amazing but it was a decent action vid.

also: so many hellsing vids lately.

meh, I didn't like the pacing in this at all really. Felt like the video had way to much goin on in it to the slow music. Especially midway through where it slowed down even more and you had all kinds of scene switching. Could just be me though. Not really liking the matching either honestly. I always envisioned a really dark drama vid themed to revenge set to this song which is probably what held me back from liking this. Sorry yo.

Biggest draw back was the overuse of action IMO, this doesn't strike me as an intense action song.

3/5
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

Thought it could have used a stronger concept like Eva suggested but it was okay lol. Overall, good, solid and clean editing.

I liked the color correction to a degree, but in general this video came off really weak and thrown together to me. The pacing felt incredibly random and inconsistent. I may also be slightly biased because I hate 30 seconds to mar's new shit, but I really didn't get any enjoyment out of this video.

Excellent Hellsing video 4/5

One of the few people to edit with Hellsing and capture the tone, which is apparently difficult. Nice job. The juxtaposition of a relaxed song with action scenes like this is a great way of expressing how desensitizing violence can be, and how it can become just a calm montage of destruction for the viewer. :up:

I realy like this... for me the anime and the song realy worked well together.
Its true that some parts needed more strengh but overall it was pretty good and i realy could get into it wich is a good thing xD
The only thing i have to complain is that you used twice a scene from the first ova... it bothered me a bit but still good to watch 4.5/5 :up:
