I'll see if I can get a studio friend to make one for us. Any specifics anime-wise or color wise? He'd probably do better with more free will, but a color scheme or something might be good to go on.

Well, the major color in all the CascadaThon Banners and Sisg so far have all been based somewhere around purple, so let's keep it at that

As for specifics of anime and such. Let the artist do his thing XD

I was also thinking of applying a new twist to this MEP guys. Although it is completely up to every involved here.

I was wat6ching a lot of the Cascada Music videos and thought............HEY!! What if everyone adds a scene or two from the music video of the song they are editing into their track? Doesn't have to be lengthy, but placed well, like on a TV or something somewhere in one of their anime sources?

It was just a thought.

Like, whoever edits the Pyromania track, puts something from the Pyromania music video somewhere in their track. Or Whoever edits the Night Nurse track, someone put something from the Night Nurse music video somewhere in the track?

It's just a thought. I thought it could work, but again it's up to everyone. If not, then it's fine. It was just a passing thought after all.

Cuz Cascada is pretty hot and it would be awesome to see her face somewhere int he MEP. It was just a passing thought, and if you guys don't think it's a good idea, then it's fine. We'll continue doing what we have been doing.

Errr... I gotta say no on this one. It's a cute idea, but (A) I don't know how to get quality footage of her music videos and (B) I don't like live action videos. XD Maybe for the credits?

Also, my footage is FINALLY ready. After finals, I'm gonna bust this baby out. I've got the idea in my head and the scenes picked. Kaze and I are going to kick this MEP's ass. :up:

Awesome. Glad to hear it.

Oh and about footage from the LA Music Videos. I have her DVD's :) So getting High Quality versions of her videos out to everyone in the MEP would not be an issue.

But since your against it, that's fine by me :)

I was thinking of using the Au Revoir Music Video somehow for the credits this time. How it is going to be implemented is till being thought out by me and my friends.

Here you go guys. These are the two music videos I was thinking of using for the credits. And yes. The credits will be epic. just with some Cascada Hotness Thrown in Using one of these 2. Me and my friends are currently working out how these would be best implemented for credits.

Au Revoir Music Video:

Pyromania Music Video:

Also linking these to you guys for some inspiration and hotness :)

Code Beta Review:

I actually really like your beta.

I only have 2 nitpicks however.

The scene at 0:15 the rapid succession of scenes. I think it goes by a little too fast. There are 3 Betas followed by a symble. Perhaps there should be 3 scenes for the 3 initial beats that fade to black at the end of each clip. And for the 4th beat which is a symble, how about a flash? A very short one. not a long one. I think that would look pretty good.

Even if you don't approve I think you should try it and see how it looks. Because as it stands, those clips go by way too fast and aren't timed well to the beats at all. And even if the end result doesn't look good, at least you can say you tried it. I would like to see it if you decide to try.

My second beef:

"And Now, Ladies And Gentleman!"


.......................................WTF!! No Lip Synch?! It would look so much better than a guy with a crazy eye looking at the ceiling >.>

That's my only 2 beefs.

Other than that. Awesome shiz :up:

I agree with TC about this. Although I personally thought it was the scenes themselves that make it look awkward, the beats are very fast but your scenes have too much motion, I mean most of them look like Rin charging at someone so it sorta doesn't fit with the next one of him slashing at Amaimon.

I also don't really like the scene choice at 0:10-0:12. It feels like there's too much blue in this segment here and this part doesn't stand out as well as the other ones where the blue flames are consuming Rin. I feel like some scenes where Rin looks frightened of his power might fit better.

You might also want to add a black fade out at the end of 0:09 so it goes with the end of the lyrics there.

Otherwise really nice so far. :up:

Oh and I disagree with you TC about the lipsync. I tried to picture Rin lipsynced to "Started" and imo, it would look very weird. :uhoh: Seeing as he's supposed to be Cascada in this track. I suppose you could try another character but then I wouldn't understand the relation of having them lipsynced to that either.

Well, the "And now ladies and gentleman" bit is before the music starts and could be used as a transition since there is no music and only words there. It would look best if done as a transition I agree. So the character that lipsyncs it could be from the last track, or from a different anime entirely. Ot from Code's track. I'm just not fond of nobody lip syncing that.

It's like your walking down the middle of a street at night going somewhere or walking to enjoy the night air and all of a sudden out of nowhere as if from the sky you hear clear as day: "And Now Ladies And Gentleman"

That would freak me out.

Just saying. At least give the lipsynch thing a try in this case. If it doesnt work out then oh well. It was tried.

Nothing Ventured Nothing Gained as they say.

KK. Those are fixes that I can work on. :up:

And I'll make two versions of the opening bit (one with and without lip sync) and we'll see which looks better.

Sweet. Pick an appropriate scene too for the lipsynch. Like, try your damndest to make it fit. But you're code. I do not need to tell you this. :awesome:
