JUDGES CHOICE, BEST COMEDY, AND BEST OF SHOW AT KUMORICON 08


I'm going to Special Hell for this one...

I had this idea pop in my head after a friend gave me a whole bunch of music, and I discovered one of the albums he gave me was "The Lion King" Soundtrack. I thought..."hmm... I should make an AMV to a Disney song, that would be fun." So I came across "Be Prepared" and I thought: "Death Note! Scar wants to be king and Light wants to be God....Scar wants to kill Mufasa, Light wants to kill L...Brilliant!"

I decided to make the Shinigami and Misa the hyenas. I originally wanted Rem to be Whoopi Goldberg's character, but I couldn't find any footage of Rem being goofy or ditzy, so I settled on Misa. This video is a blast and my best accomplishment yet. Enjoy!

Cast:
Scar- Light/Kira
Shenzi- Misa
Banzai- Ryuk
Ed- Rem
Mufasa- L
Simba- Watari
Hyena Chorus- Random Shinigami

I'll be honest. I'd probably have to say that this is one of my favorite Death Note AMV's out there (Purge's Silent INtentions taking the #1 spot).

Let me list this video's beauties.

*Gorgeous Video Quality
*Good Editing
*Beautiful Work of Parody
*Some of the Best Lip Sync I've Seen Ever
*Some of the best masking I've ever seen
*Good Atmosphere
*Makes references to the basic Death Note plot, while making it unique
*Nightmarish Comedy

If I had any critiuqe, it would have to be that a few scenes (Like at 1:18) lasted a tad too long.

It's just plain good people! A definite must-get on my highest of reccomendations.

Excellent Job. A nice escape from all the Emo Death Note Vids I have seen recently. I wish I could have been there though. Would have loved to tell you that personally.

O_o While I completely agree with your overall points and sentiments, I'm somewhat confused about point #1. The vast amount of macro blocking I saw literally broke me out of it for a second. At best I'd have to say Raws with little to no filtering.

Still didn't stop me from loving it though, 5/5.

Mmmm I downloaded this yesterday? Yea...yesterday..Ok so...I found it interesting hehehe but I liked the video in sudden burst (certain sections). I felt like some scenes lasted a tad too long and at a times the characters expression didn't fit the tone of voice. 1:44 - 2-38 and the ending were :up: Over all I enjoyed lol GJ

Loved it. Beat all them other kumoricon vids out of the water. :up:
I love to wear absurd and totally impractical garments. What's more, I derive great pleasure from spending time with women for no apparent reason.
