1:1 exchange, Would like opinions on Right, Ryoko.

Postby FurryCurry » Tue Jun 03, 2003 5:36 pm

I'll do a 1 for 1 exchange with at least the first three people who post, for opinions on the vid I just released, Right, Ryoko. We Believe You.

I'm particularly interested in what people think of the lipsync, and the encoding. This is my first attempt at doing high quality lipsync, and I spent quite a bit of time trying to make the encode as good as possible in a reasonable size.

This is a pretty good deal, since the vid is only 36 seconds, and just over 10 megs. :wink:

Okay I'm reviewing your video now. You should have it up in a few minutes. In the mean time here is my link to my video.

Thanks and the video is called Gene's Last Breath. (I sent this video to Otakon for this years contest.)

Here is my video:

Glory of Love - an Escaflowne romance video. Fairly simple in editing (ie. in effects), but the song didn't demand it. Hopefully you agree :).

However, before taking you up on this, slight disclaimer...please don't review it if you hate sappy romance videos. This video is oozing with it. If you like comedy or action videos only, I'm fairly sure I've already heard the constructive criticism you have to give in an earlier review :)

If not, please feel free and enjoy! I will have yours up some time today. I got one above you in the "queue." :)

Thanks for the reviews, guys!

I have to work for the next several hours, and I'll start watching and writing them as soon as I get home.

dwchang: I already have your latest few vids, and I'll be happy to opinionate Glory, even if I liked Evolution a tiny bit better. :o

Liked Evolution better!? Argh...seems to be the trend. Almost everyone likes it more :(...I guess my opinion about my own vids is meaningless :-P. I guess I understand since Romance isn't that popular and generally only fangirls like them. Hopefully you can still review it fairly objectively. I *hope* the editing and effort show regardless of the genre. Also if it well...does what I set out to do ("couldn't be better") :-P

I do hope the fact you already have them implies that you liked either of them period though :) :) :)

I will work on yours *if* I have an opening at here at work. If not later tonight

Thanks in advance!

Forgot to mention...if you really wanna review Evolution over it...by all means go ahead. I mean I'd have to receive another "I hate the song...I hate romance videos" review :-P. Then again, I'm fairly sure from your posts and whatnot that regardless of the genre you'd be willing to look at it objectively (the editing, quality and well...does the concept work?)....so I guess this post is useless...perhaps I'll swap Evolution for something later in your AMV career :).

genestarwind: your opinion is up.

Just curious, but did you use WMM to make that?

I wouldn't be too sorry to get another opinion on my first vid, Questioning Youth. It seems everyone found at least one unique good or bad thing about it, and I'd trade you one on that for Evolution if you want. It's an indirect link, and there's a better looking, much smaller xvid encode on my site you can download instead of the listed mpeg 1 should you wish to.
(sheesh, I need to update my link. :oops: )

I forgot to get something at the store, but I'll be right back to do your & BigDave's reviews within the hour.

Forgot to mention, I too have an MPEG-2 of both of these if their quality is inadequate. Not to sound arrogant, but I am pretty good at MPEG-1 encodes, but at the same time, if you're very picky, I can send you an MPEG-2 via AIM or something...hopefully both are clean and good (esp. for MPEG-1).

Thanks again!

Your review's up for Glory, dw.

Now for BigDave's, then Evolution.

Ouch, tired hands! :o

btw, Glory looks great for mpeg 1.

Both opinions have been submitted. If I could star-rate I'd have done that too since it takes...2 seconds :-P.

Good job!
