Ayiaaaaa. I love Gotye! :3

I think it was a great combination, and I loved the lighting/coloring within it. Made a good connection to the mood of the song. I felt like some of the hard cuts were a little too fast at times, BUT I loved the scene selection enough that this didn't bother me as much as it probably would have otherwise.

Overall, I enjoyed it and will likely be keeping this one for quite a while. :)

The video itself was quite nice, I guess. There was generally something a bit wrong with the sync but the main problem for me was music. Seriously, for a few months I've been hearing this song constantly everywhere and I'm totally sick of it, so that's probably why I couldn't enjoy the video much.

Anyway, don't mind me :D Well done and good luck in the contest! :up:

PS I thought I'd finish my entry but I won't make it on time, probably :(

This song was probably the best single song created in the last year and even though I've heard it a million times I still love it to death.
So I was curious to see how you handled it. I figured it'd be quite hard to edit this song and while I think you managed to tell the story well by scene choice and order, the video did not move me at all like the song alone does. It didn't seem like you managed to capture the big emotion and mood at all.

I think that was mainly because I didn't really enjoy watching the anime in the first place. In all honesty, I look over this video a lot and I think every time that if I used a different source, I could have conveyed the emotions in the video much better. I just wasn't connected with the characters in the anime, so I guess it showed through the video, haha.

But thank you guys for the comments!
