Shiny! *__* I love the pacing and the particles. Though I would go back and check some of your transitions between the pokemons, mainly around 0:08 with Pansage cause I couldn't really see him properly until I looked properly and the blend one between Ash & Pikachu. Might want to lighten the particles in this area too. ^^ Otherwise it's awesome! And I love how you used the episodes with the new Black&White Pokemon. <3 Now I gotta go watch the show itself...

Glad you meant to enjoy it, apologies to anyone who might have went blind after viewing haha. I'll take another look at those transitions soon. Kinda wish the series was father along so I could use some bigger Pokemon, but it's all good.

The dub has a pretty good translation and original music nowadays, if that kinda hing interests you~ :dino:

Like I told you in PM. I have 1 little nitpick. DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!! I"M ALLOWED!! XD

Anyway between the 8 and 9 second mark where you have the pokemon shooting the purple stuff or whatever, it's kinda hard to make out the scene there because of the particles. I really had to focus to look past the particles to actually see the scene and what the pokemon were doing. Just saying you might wanna look into fixing that.

In earlier beta's It looked to me like you were gonna do a rivalry bit between that blonde headed dude and Ash and go about the video that way, then it just totally switches to random pokemon and ash looking up in the sky and doesn't show the blonde dude anymore after the initial 2 scenes. I was a lil confused.

Other than that, the video itself is astounding. I can't wait to see it finished. I wanna find out exactly what concept from the theme you are going for. Spirit of adventure? Rivalry? Friendship? Hardship? So get to finishing.

AND YES!! I THOUGHT THE BLACK SCREEN WOULD BE GONE!! |:>

But like I said. I'm looking forward to the final. Keep it up. it's lookin good so far.

I liked the end of Hagaren's track the best. I felt it at the Ash and Pikachu part. I think the beginning was a bit random and hard to watch. It's also incomplete so who knows what direction you will take it in.

Yeah, I'm actually going back to my original concept for the track with this beta. I had switched it between battles between Ash and Trip [The blonde], but I had all of two eps to work with and that didn't get me very far, I honestly had to throw some random scenes to get a full segment out of it. As for the theme, I'd say it loosely follows 'rivals and connections, adventures'. Even your friends can be your rivals ;p

The beginning will likely have the same tone as the end, also trying to set up the 'story' for the battles in the middle. All in like, 10 seconds, lol.

Well, I realize the track is short. And thus will be relatively hard to setup a story within that kinda time-frame. It doesn't have to be an epic or grand adventure, as I am pretty sure that all of us are well aware that "Pokemon" embodies the spirit of adventure AND rivalry. I mean, it's the point of the show. Well, and to want to grow stronger.

Basically, I just want something aesthetically eye pleasing with some semblance of a story. It doesn't have to be a complete story mind you. It can be just enough for the viewer to go, "OHHHH, I get it" story wise, and then you can bust out with filler. As long as there is some semblance of a story and the viewer can make it out, then the track is a complete success!!

Me too :O I actually like it being all random because I'm too busy admiring the awesomesauce quality and the shiny stuff to pay attention to what the story is...

Well, I mean. If everyone's fine with the result, then it's fine by me. I just think it needs a tiny bit of polishing before it's ready. I too like the shinyness.

Sorry for the double post guys. But, I have to self advertise a second, lol.

My first full length video in a while.

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=104445

I would actually love some crit from you guys. If you would be so kind as to give it in the video's thread, that would be awesome.

Anyway, self advertisement, done.

How is everyone's track goin. I'm about to have to kick a couple people as I have yet to receive anything from them. Can I get a progress Check, please?

I've been catching up on sleep. My dog hasn't been well and it's been like having a Baby all over again! I've been letting him out every 2 hours at night plus I have 2 kids to look after during the day. I will try to get the final out next week as well.
