Five free reviews, first come first serve.
I did this a few years back, and it was pretty cool and successful--I did something like 30 of these. I think I got to all but one of the reviews at the end because some family stuff came up--very very sorry whoever was waiting for that review! I'll see if I can dig through the archives and find which video I still had to do.
ANYWAY. I'm a teacher on summer vacation. This equals too much free time for my own good, which is going to be filled by giving your videos honest but hopefully constructive reviews! (Fair warning: if it sucks, I'll tell you so, but I'll try to identify the problems where I see them. But if it rocks, I'll tell you so, too, and tell you what was working for me.)
Important rules:
1. No subtitles unless you added them as an effect for the video.
2. No Linkin Park, Evanescence, Electric Six, Nightwish, or thrash metal.
3. No FLCL, Azumanga, or Death Note. I love all three of those anime, don't get me wrong, but there's an oversaturation of vids for them. Bonus points if your video piques my interest in checking out an anime I've never heard of.
4. If you have a romance video you'd like me to review, make sure it has more to it than an endless sequence of facial closeup after facial closeup. This was the single most common criticism I had of videos the last time I did this.
Good luck! To the first five go the reviews. If/when I can do more after that, I'll bump the thread and say so.

Then that guitar thingies popped up and went dun dun DUN dun then those box thingies went zooming by and twirling around and shit. Oh god, then the hexagons popped up and I was like 'I just got a stiffie'. Then there was the circle with those thingies going around and I blew my load.

I hope you don't mind Elfen Lied >_< . This one's spoiler heavy, so in case you don't want that anything of mine is fine.
Thanks!
