Cool...
there was a lot of movement (well, DUH! IT'S SKY CRAWLERS) but yeah, awesome video.

Almost as hard as fighting a Holy Paladin.

Very creative, too bad it was extremely obvious when it jumped to different parts of the song.
I like it though.

Re: Excerpts I [Soul]
*In my opinion, it was a tad oversynced, but people interpret songs differently, so I think it's a very minor issue.
*The song cuts were not good, but I've been doing a lot of not-so-perfect song cuts myself, and I could really care less. It was only slightly disruptive to me, but perhaps more-so to others.
*Lastly, I don't like the color correction. Now, if you pause the video, it looks very nice, but in my person opinion, I can't stand color correction where it looks the same on every clip. Each clip and its' lighting is completely different, so it should be adjusted for every clip. In this case, it looks like a picture of some gradient that was overlayed over the entire video. This is one of my pet peeves, and to another it may be very pretty, but to me, I just can't stand it.
It makes the effect very obvious and in the end it just looks childish and very, god I don't know the word, and I hate this word, but noobish? I just hate people who use that word, but my vocabulary is just poor. But in a sense, yes, noobish.
However, it's extremely well edited and creative. I understand you were editing under a time crunch, but you manage to edit uniquely. Nobody thought to edit the song this way, and it makes your video more enjoyable to watch.
It definitely has its flaws, but I'm completely aware of your editing capabilities from seeing your other amvs. I don't think you could utilize your skills to their fullest potential in this amv because of the time crunch. I'm looking forward to the second version
