I watched this video on the main Akross page, and I didn't see who made it until I saw Denpa Onna. I gotta say we're the only two editors that use that anime religiously. xD
Also props for classical music!

Thanks, Brad! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I was kinda afraid that people might not get the general story. Some people do, though, good enough^^

The only thing I would say is that by the picture frame shown near the end, it makes the story look more as if it was a spirit of someone close to him that he lost.
The frame was kinda meant to make you confused. It's weird, but that's how I wanted it to be. Anyway, thanks! :awesome:

I'll comment detailed once I'm done with my duties with AKROSS. For the moment, some of my friends that watched the video said that it was good :up:

I enjoyed the mood and atmosphere. Good use of instrumental. However, I can't help but feel that the video is a bit lacking in substance. There doesn't seem to be anything more to it than what is written in the video description. Why the boy cares about the girl, what the girl represents to him... we don't know and I feel like the scene selection doesn't bring the amount of mystery it should. So I appreciate the technical side of things, but the story really didn't do much for me. Good luck!

I liked it. :3 Technical was very nice, good editing all around. Cept for the story could have been a bit more detailed in my opinion. Thats just the only flaw I have. But pretty great edit though. Good luck. :3

Quite a lot of people appear to have problems with understanding what's going on there, but well, maybe I'll do better next time ^^'. Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!

Like I said above, I need to work on my story-telling both for easy understanding and for making it 'have more sense'. I'll try to concentrate on that when doing next projects of this type. Thanks a lot ;)

I won't repeat the same thing for the third time here, just read above xD. Thank you!

Seriously, I wouldn't expect the vid to be recieved as well as it is :ying: :ying:

Its hard to make an instrumental AMV and keep it interesting enough for me to watch from start to finish. I managed to watch it all, good vibe and some nice technical work. :up:

Stunning amv.
I love blue and sparkling videos, and the plot is quite easy to understand, even if it could be told better: it would have been more interesting if you showed what kind of relationship there was between the boy and the "ghost" girl.
However I really enjoyed this, it's not easy to combine different sources that good. Good luck for the contest!
