The vid wasn't great but had it's moments IMO. I'd definately like to see Funi venture more into AMVs, though.

I dont know much about Black Butler, but Im a little confused as to why this show has such a freaking peppy ending theme...

Especially today when most 14 year old girls are more technologically literate and willing to download fansubs than the 40 year old white dude who came up with this messy horror show of a marketing disaster.

Kazuo Ishiguro is probably rolling in his grave, gnashing his single decayed tooth against dry brittle gums and spitting dust as he curses the soul of the Tokyo writer who butchered his book to make this series.

From the looks of that video Becca can't sing, can't dance and has a childish sense of rhythm. She's gonna be the next Yeezy for sure. :awesome:


Dewd, you look SO cool right now :awesome:

I could probably make this combo work better... the video seemed really random to the song, and whoever made it only put some very basic phrase sync to it. The scenes don't go well with the lyrics at all, leaving a huge disconnect between the video and the song... However this is WAY better than all the AMVs on Green Green or Sukisyo.

and yes 14 yearold girls will buy this... but not due to the song, but due to all the pretty boys in it. Pretty boys are rather "in" at the moment :P

Keep in mind companies have more limits than AMV editors. We can use effects, mask characters, and otherwise change the source some. That company editor probably couldn't. Plus AMV editors usually do something because we want to, the company guy may have been told to just do something and he slapped shit together just to get the project over with.

Also don't underestimate the company only willing to pay so much. I've done editing for my job, and it was extremely basic, but that's because every hour of my time cost the company money. So they wanted to keep very careful tabs on what I was doing, and let me have just a few hours - a day's work really - and that was it. AMV editors have almost infinite time when doing it as a hobby.

The same is true of game developers vs. modders - in PC games that have been heavily modded, fans often rag on developers for failing to see the game to proper perfection. But the situations of hobbyists vs. professionals, especially as far as resources, are extremely different. It's very hard to compete with people who work only for their enjoyment and can put in as much time as they like, vs. people who can only put in as much time as they're paid for.
