Anyway, here's my post-apocalyptic entry for the Quickening tournament, Group G - Round One. Tried to make it as funny as it gets, and yes, I enjoyed editing to this! To a song that I would never even think of using. Now... to the VCAs! |:> Also, watch out for a surprise beginning scene and... yes, that's all. (also, sorry for the 102mb filesize, ZarxGui is giving me a lot of troubles lately and I'm already asking for advice on the "Compression, Encoding, and Converting" thread...)

I loled. I actually really like this. I don't wanna sound redundant by saying the same thigns I said to you in my quick comment, but it's TwilightChrono, not Twilight Chrono.

Why does everyone put a space in my name? haha.

Regardless, I thought this was really adorable and very enjoyable, + it made me laugh. So I gave ya 4 stars. WHOO!!

Plus, Nice song choice. I hadn't heard that version yet so it was a nice change of pace.

Keep it up :up:

Whoa, someone actually posted something in here! I... ok, I don't have an excuse for the mistake I made with your name, even though I know you for more than 2 years :D So, thank you for your kind words TC (not making that mistake again...), it's a shame you didn't proceed to the next round, seriously. There's always the next time pal :wink:

Now, praise the lord I didn't get some Lady Gaga stuff...

the Valley of the Shadow of Death
...

...I take a look at my life and realize there's none left!
'Cause I've been brassin' and laughin' so long that!
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone! ...

:uhoh:


Not a bad video by any means, but a bunch of cuts seemed quite choppy and disrupted the flow. The part from 1:09 to 1:30 was flowing perfectly well on the other hand!

I don't get it though.

(Also...was that cookie cutter at 1:16 really needed? I see why you put it in there...but there could have been better ways to blend the two scenes...)

Actually Kev, let me surprise you. I stole the title from Marilyn Manson's song "In the Shadow of the Valley of Death" (rearranging 2 words... not only it's a part of the Gangsta's Paradise lyrics, it's also a quote from the Bible :book: )

I know there were some ugly cuts out there, but hell, I've been given this lousy song and only a week to edit. As for that cookie cutter, yes, you're right. I only hope this doesn't affect the judges' ratings... Well, thanks for your comment Kevmaster, i know what an elitist you are! :awesome: (Emotive made you this way I guess... -.- I have to find this guy since we live in the same country)
