New sephiroth video??? DO WANT!!! *downloads for old school justice*

EDIT: Loved it. Classic Noir video, and your win shows there is a still a market for this type of editing, which makes me very happy indeed. I was a bit confused by the 16:10 ratio and the letterboxing. Is Noir natively 16:10?

So basically- it actually *is* 16:10? How odd.

I Blame Coco and Noir! Lovely sources. This was a very well done simplistic video all about emotion. I enjoyed this!

Thanks for the amazing work.

You could improve in the artwork - pictures/photography. But in all honesty the music is amazing!

Truly touching! <3

Colors. That is the only thing that is missing, an improvement on the colors =)

Maybe it is because the Anime is older... But still there should be more parts like 00:13 (the color effect)

I don't have the video on this computer (I'm at work), but I don't remember any color effects, and I'm not sure I'd want to see them. I think one of the hypercorrections at work in AMVs is trying to "improve" older anime (especially in terms of sharpness or color) which simply over saturates the footage. Such saturation would be at odds not only with the vintage of the anime itself, but also with Sephiroth's general classic style.

tl;dr, without looking at 00:13, and based solely on my own recollections of viewings last night, I don't agree with you.
