I find this rather ironic considering the title of the vid (sorry, had to say it >.>)

Yeah, I find the irony rather eerie, but it played a part in deciding the title. <.<
sorry about the flashes, but I felt that they were necessary for the theme. "Do you face the ugliness of the Modern world, or do you look away." That's what the ending was kinda trying to say.

However, I really do have to complain about the 60 fps thing. My computer had trouble playing this, even in VLC (which is saying something...my computer's pretty powerful). Also, I hate having to use VLC because VLC sucks hard IMO. So...I dunno, couldn't you just speed the clips up in your editing program instead of changing the framerate?
Because of the frustration I have to go through to get this to play well, I'm going to have to give you a 4/5...woulda probably been a solid 5/5 but technical problems like this really bug me :/
It's good to hear that you enjoyed it a lot

You liked my first astro boy video more, but I'm sad to say I won't be using this source any more.

Your complaint on the 60fps is reasonably justified. I just do it because there's no other place I've found to see stuff like it; if it is played back the way it should, the framerate should look really smooth in such a way that is not normally seen. I made a 30fps version, and it just seems so choppy. [actually, I saw Awakened at Animethon, and it was converted to 30fps.
...well....at the part where the video picks up, it was just a blur]
The suggestion to speed up the clips in Magix is in fact how I got the idea of exporting at 60fps: if you speed up a clip x2, but export at 30fps, half of your frames go to waste, [they don't even get shown], yet, the human eye would still be able to see it all-- so why not show it. If I'm not mistaken, the guides say in the framerates section that IMax movies have 48fps, and that's probably what makes them so unique. But do not fret good sir, my next amv will be 25fps ;O

it's good that the mood worked, but it's a bit slower than I anticipated cause of the abrupt end to my editing. Plus you hate astro boy "Let's Rocket!" *jab*
