Hey Guys!

I Had so much fun making this amv. and i hope you guys really enjoy it! A lot of effort went into it so i hope you enjoy it!

I Had this Idea after watching this amv. I was Driving in virginia and was like I want to edit to Panty & Stocking But i dont know what song to edit to. Later that day i was still driving in virginia and i heard this [at the time] amazing song. i was like ZOMG thats an amazing song [now i want to kill it with fire].
This Anime is so great. not just for the transformation scenes but its a show about a HARLOT & A COOKIE MONSTER. Making references to american culture. HOW AWESOME IS THAT!?!?

I would really like to thank brad [Lloyd9988] because ive been going through a really hard time for these past two weeks, been sick, and its just been a really bad couple days. Thanks brad :).

And Thank you to all the Beta Testers too!

COMMENTING ON YOUR VID!

i have really enjoyed watching this AMV. The style of animation in this anime is kinda hard when it comes to getting the story/cencept behind it but in the end I think you've done some great job. Now as I watch it, it's way more clear. And I actually think it's a pretty good action vid. Really pleasurable.

I'm still not sure about some transitions, though. But that's all I wrote you in beta, so not much to say here.

So, yup, enjoyed :up:

I am in agreement with Centurione, maybe a bit too many crossfades but your style of editing makes this AMV fun to watch imo |:> I think its because its not perfect is why it works out in the end and its enjoyable. ^_^ Anyway, you'll probably end up liking the song again after not listening to it within like a week or two. Lastly. . . The last thirty second were amazing. . . Just sayin' (But Garterbelt is still pimp)

Thank you for letting me in on the beta! Fun to get a sneak peak at it. |:>

It's a really fun concept that's got a lot of high energy that makes me enjoy it and have fun while watching it, while still having a dramatic element to it. This is as close to a dramatic video that PSG can get to (until I finally get the DVDs and do my own ;) ) The PSG fan in me is constantly squeeing throughout the AMV.

Unfortunately, the critic in me looks at this and sees a lot of room for improvement. For the most part, the AMV is solid. The cuts and scenes are well placed to really play off of Pink's music well, and for the most part it has a solid atmosphere. It really captures the essence of the show's fun/humorous elements.

However, the scene selection really needs some work, and the minor off-sync editing bits really make the enjoyment come to a screeching halt at times.
There's nearly a 15 second clip that offers nothing to the story other than toilet humor (literally!). An example of this is the very first bit of "blow me one last kiss" has a great theme of editing to it with the blowing up villains, but the sync gets cut off abruptly due to an off-synced scene. Various lip flap was prominent, and sped up scenes were also noticeable at times.

The concept is also somewhat inconsistent. What I assumed was an AMV about the relationship between Panty and Stocking (after all this is the Confessions of both a Harlot and Cookie Monster, right?) and their adventures and relationship sort of becomes the "sad Panty story with farm scenes" in what was oddly reminiscent of an episode of the show with the PSG movie.

I'm just being overly critical at this point. Most of my opinion is with the beta I sent out to you.

That being said, I still enjoyed it and would recommend it to others. :up:
