I agree and make amvs with good concept, poor execution. I admit *_* I need video ninja training to hone my skills.

Good execution just means you followed the guides.

and I can't even do that right :<

I deal with badly executed videos as I deal with conceptual art.

--> No excuses, please :<

I MAKE poorly executed videos with crappy concepts and at one point or another just about everyone in this thread has tolerated my ass. :P

Perhaps, but you have to look at the overall picture, I'll give that he went with a similer concept as one he'd done before, but overall there's still very few amvs with that editing style and mood. Would you say it's originallity if he hadn't done the style before, but it's the same upbeat techno dance amv we see so much now? Or even worse a typical but well edited drama? I think the style is still very unused, and I'd like to see more, whether it's by him again or someone else shouldn't matter.
It is true ... Auriga and Magid Pad is unique in its kind, but "Auriga", was not very exciting as "Magid Pad" but has a better execution ... as I said before ... That is why I like! :wink:

But what if execution is the concept

I saw some videos at AX with GREAT concepts, but terrible execution. At the same time, I saw some "oh, it's another action video" concepts with great execution.

It absolutely has to be both.
