Excellence in Simplicity

Postby Corran » Sun Jan 04, 2004 9:04 pm

From the proposed Catagory listing for this years VCAs:
Excellence in Simplicity
A lot of credit is given these days to videos that are filled with stunning visuals, effects and techniques. However, a lot of videos out there are incredible without the need for these embelishments and additions... some videos are superb just because they are so simple and yet so perfect. This award goes to the video which uses simple techniques and ideas to create a video that just *works*. It could be dramatic, romantic, sentimental, action, comedy - anything. It doesn't need precision timing or effects galore because it's an excellent idea executed brilliantly.



If this does become a catagory then I suggest everyone check out this video by Oddbot

Free

It uses the anime Grave of the Fireflies and the song Blue by Yoko Kanno.

It easily kicked my ass at this years Anime Expo and definately deserves everyone's vote if it this catagory is approved.

I nominate my Trigun one!

It's so simple, I didn't even use fade-ins (because I didn't know how until my second video)!

It wasn't flashy, sorta the opposite of euphoria in the effects department.
