New Dirge of Cerberus AMV: Within Temptation - Frozen
My fifth anime music video, using footage from Final Fantasy 7: Dirge of Cerberus and set to the song "Frozen" by Within Temptation. This is the second video I've done to DOC, but this time from the perspective of Lucrecia singing to Vincent. The theme is Lucrecia's sacrifice to save Vincent, which is then continued by Shelke as she takes on Lucrecia's feelings.
For this video, I used many scenes not commonly seen in DOC music videos, which I hope should give it an original feel. My editing style focuses very heavily on matching scenes to the lyrics of the song to let the song tell the characters' story, and this song was absolutely perfect for Lucrecia.
Please comment and let me know what you think. I'm hoping this one will be good enough to make it into some contests, so any suggestions with that end in mind would be welcome. I'll also be doing an OP exchange on this video if anyone is interested.

I am a huge Within Tempation fan, as well as a fninal fantasy junkie.
Now, after saying that, I will nowget to the technical aspects of the video.
Video Quality: Seemed pretty decent. I think it could have been better, but for the most part it was well done.
Audio: Seemed fine to me. Nicely compressed.
Concept/Originality: Final Fantasy Drama? Well done, yet slightly overdone.
Editing: Meh. Could have used some more fading, more consistant sync.
Other: I think it was well done, but it could have used a more consistant concept, other than the whole "dramaness", or maybe a solid one person concept, instead of three different people.
I'm so totally going to rent this game tonight afterI get off of work. ^_^
3.50/5.00
Slightly above slightly above average. (If that makes sense)
