very very nice editing, however....
I think that the first part was mainly just "pretty scenes" with text, and if the text wasn't there, I might not have understood it, the second part teaches us more in my opinion, because of the drugs and such, but I don't remember it showing the result of using drugs? (even though I just watched it lol) well the third part isn't so educational either (just like the first one) but at least it wasn't just pretty scenes :P and I think the third part was fine for editing *pats Farm* overall the editing was really really good, but I think it's not the text that should tell us something, the point is that the video otself teaches us something without text >.< but nice job anyway :3

x2. I did like the text though, but I felt like there was too much text. Especially in the first part, where it goes by quickly because I was trying to focus on both the scene and the text at the same time, and failed miserably in a few sections. I was also partial with your scene selection. At times I felt like you nailed it, and other times I felt the scene didn't quite match the mood/feel of the text. My suggestion would have been to keep it more abstract and only choosing a few prominent scenes to overlay with text and try to strengthen the text's theme with more scenes. (Eg. "to laugh" + more laughing scenes instead of just one and then moving to "to believe" and skipping the not so strong themes.)

I liked the contrast of the second track and how it shows us that not everything in anime is all smiles and pretty rainbows. Because this is also true for life. Again I do like the text addition but they're delivered in huge blocks and some of it isn't very clear/goes by too quickly for me to comprehend how you're trying to link it with the video. (Like at 1:48 the blurring was too long)

And the last track, my favourite track. What I got from the video was that the boy is a manga artist who has some sort of illness. Due to this illness he's losing hope in life and his imagination is gradually decreasing. But what saves him is his dream of being an artist because an artist is someone who puts their imagination to paper. And you conveyed dreams as being very beautiful and vivid (by using eden & ef since they're well known "pretty" scenes) because dreams can be a form of imagination and imagination is limitless and it's the dream that gives him power to keep going.

At least that's what I think. :sweat: But you know, I could be wrong. The editing was done pretty well and I liked the way you integrated the pretty scenes with Bakuman. :)

Anyway I really enjoyed the video as a whole. It felt very new and refreshing. Good work you three! :up:

You really really got it all o:!
I'm glad :D thank you for that.
I'm sad because it could be better but for time issues I edited very quick and
the result wasn't the best :uhoh:
