hahahahah xD but this anime is supposed to be like that. Besides I´m a man so I don´t have a problem with the last scene

Anyway:

Hitori, bro congrats. You did what I was exactly thinking when I mentioned the scenes of all those episodes. While I liked the way you hit the beats, until certain points it started to be disturbing, but anyway, I approve it.

Mystyk I need to talk about the progress of my part. While I watched the whole beta, I realized it will be a nightmare to transition between EvaFan´s part and mine, so I remade the first seconds, but my current problem is that I´m stuck in the middle of the vid. So should I send how it currently looks like the beta? Cause I´m having a bad time trying to get ideas of how I should continue my part

Well... I don't think that I can finish my part, because of things... so please forgive me, and try to choose an other editor instead of me. T_T

Hitori: I like your part :3! I agree with Mystyk, but I also want to add a few really small things. At 00:03 the clips where you zoom in at could use less glow. The part at 00:05 when she comes out of that thing (a warp or something? I dont know the anime xD) might look a bit better with a little more brighness/contrast. Dont forget to add some extra second(s) of footage in the beginning and the end of your part for transition ;)!

Kyssifur: okay, if you say so, then I'll make the track free

Tritio: if you have problems with transitions you can just mask something, a character, or start with a flash or just leave it to me, and I'll tell you if it's too hard for me and do something with it :P and please send your beta as it is now, maybe we can help :P

about my part, I still haven't decided what anime to use, but once I get home I'll try to figure it out, and if you have suggestions I'll be happy to hear T_T >.<

I´ll like to point something: Once all the final tracks are here, I´ll like to request a new beta of the whole MEP just to get ideas how the transitions will be made. Don´t worry if you feel you can´t render them, I can do to the job. Personally I believe the transitions of this MEP should be more than flashes or fades

Anyway, returning to my track, please wait until night. I returned from my job and I still have to finish some masks here. Once I´m done with the scene selection I´ll pass to the effects, though I prefer that everybody watch first the scene selection, which is more important for me in this moment

Tritio: the flash was just an idea, I didn't say all the transitions will be flashes, and if you don't have ideas, you don't have to suffer thinking of it, don't overcomplicate it, make it simple, or leave it to me >.< :') and don't worry, I'm only at home at the weekends (and friday) so it's better for me to look at the betas when I'm at home :P >.<

oh and I might be quite late with a newer beta, because I have something else to work on but there are only about 2 weeks left so I'll try not to be late so much :P >.<

Mystyk, my sister is interrested in the free MEP track. If you cant find a replacement, she would want to take it. (she doesnt have an org account yet, but on youtube her username is MelyoraMel.)

I really liked what you did at the end (that flashy effect for the beats :awesome: it was kind of disturbing but it really spiced it up). Basically, I have no thing to point out, therefore I approve it in my eyes as final.
Cool, I have some edits to do from the other comments after this. :up:

AimoAio wrote:Hitori: I really like it. :up: Though I still think you should change the scene at 0:20 after she sings "I am a holy virgin" because it does feel really long despite the flashy effect and there's also extra beats.
MystykAMV wrote:Hitori: at the beginning what's that kind of black and white noisy effects? I think there's nothing special in the sound why it should be there
That was something I was messing with in the Alpha video. It has since been removed in the full Beta. 8-)

MystykAMV wrote:and I agree with AimoAio, the scene at 0:20 is too long, and I think you should reduce that white shiny thing, cuz it was a bit too strong
I was going for the build up because the song from the beginning and middle were slow. Then the middle to end started packing some energy. Maybe the flashy effect slowly fades in? I'll trim down the lip syncing part. Add more of the band playing in the beginning part. :up:

MystykAMV wrote:and at 0:13 wouldn't it be better to use a fade instead of hardcut? I don't know if it will look nicer, but you should try it maybe :P otherwise it's a really good track, I like it :up:
So a fade in of them touching hands? I'll PM another beta later tonight. :P

MystykAMV wrote:Edit: and also Hitori, the scene at about 0:27 doesn't fit as much as the other scenes, they are kind of serious and sad, and then you put there a scene with the guy being surrounded by boobs or something >.<
TritioAFB wrote:hahahahah xD but this anime is supposed to be like that. Besides I´m a man so I don´t have a problem with the last scene
It is actually a little clip(one of the outros) of them being chibi and she's bumping her head against his into a the wall. I could add more boobs in the beginning to compliment track 9. :rofl:

At 00:03, that was all in the original clip including the zoom out. It was one of those "magical" moments between the two of them. At 00:05, I don't want to lose too much detail when adding some brightness/contrast to it. It'll either wash it out or blow out the highlights. I can only go up to about +10 of +100 for brightness & contrast before it starts making it look bad. :uhoh:

FadingSundown wrote:Dont forget to add some extra second(s) of footage in the beginning and the end of your part for transition ;)!
How can I do that? There is no audio? I was under the impression that the couple seconds into the song and before the song needed to have regular clips and no flashy effects/transitions. :uhoh:


Edit: I did a quick edit with the changes suggested and sent another PM. What do you guys think of the new Beta 3?

I wasn't sure if MystykAMV saw the Alpha and commented or the Beta. Because the only black & white noisy effect I knew of was the paint brush overlay at 00:02-00:04 in one of the Alpha videos. Time codes also help to narrow down what everyone is talking about and which version. The very beginning had the screen glitch look to it but it was only black & white for 1 frame. The image was the next frame. On my timeline, it was timecode 00:00:00:10 (frame 10). :shock:

I'll just edit those frames out then! :uhoh:

Since Mystyk said that not all the parts should look the same, comparing Hitori´s part to the rest, I don´t find something that could disturb now. EVen when my angels is singing, I don´t think it could affect that much, but you´ll have to wait until she comments

Hitori: well the same thing as ibabrak showed on the picture, and as for a fade I mean the scene where it shows the girl and after that the boy (and not the hand scene) so it's before the hand scene, and could you do something with the beat syncing at 0:16 cuz I dunno, there so many of that sound there :P but it's not that necessary if you don't want to, the scene at 0:20 (with hte lip syncing) is much better, it's finally not that long, you can leave it like that now :up: but there are still too many of the flashes, we don't wantg to cause seizure :P maybe try to find other ways to hit the beat? >.< I'm sorry to make you work on your part so much xD but I'm glad you actually correct these things or change :3 8D it will be very awesome *.* it is awesome now xD

FadingSundown: well IF her quality will be alright and IF she hits the beats then she can join :P but she should make an org account and post here :P so let her read the first post before joining please >.<

I've edited it out. :roll:

Oh, ok! I'll change the hand scene back and do a fade between the two of them instead! :D
MystykAMV wrote:and could you do something with the beat syncing at 0:16 cuz I dunno, there so many of that sound there :P but it's not that necessary if you don't want to
I'll look at what I can do or change up for that section. :up:

I don't think the flashes are too fast to cause seizures, but I'll see what I can do for that. Maybe I can tone down how bright it flashes? I already did that with the bouncing overlay. Don't want to make it look similar to other parts of the project. :up:
MystykAMV wrote:I'm sorry to make you work on your part so much xD but I'm glad you actually correct these things or change :3 8D it will be very awesome *.* it is awesome now xD
Well, that's what I do when I'm working on a MEP. I can take critiques and change things up as needed/required. :awesome:

Now... I wish SOAD2 would be released so people can see the awesomeness of Bounce... That was fun to edit! :awesome: And possibly Cigaro... That was a fun mash up of two tracks I edited together and added my additions and two images someone on the project submitted. Both are NSFW, especially Cigaro. :ying:

She did read the rules, and Im pretty sure that she can hit the beats :3. But she left this morning on a trip with her school, she will come back next week. If a replacement for the part shows up then he/she could take the part ofcourse. Though if you cannot find an editor for the part then my sister is available (when she makes her org account)
