30 new videos

Post by Trilaan » Tue Apr 26, 2005 3:28 pm

30 new anime music videos, created over the course of four months have now been uploaded. :) Time for a long rest. Oh my aching brain.

I'm not even going to list every link here. Just look for videos from Celestial Dragon Productions to find them. I definitely don't recommend seeing all Golden Boy videos in one go. Once a month, maybe.

You definitely have a good start here...I have a few suggestions though (I know, it doesn't mean much coming from someone who hasn't release a video in almost three years though)

Only work with your best ideas, if something is not strong when you start it, it's not going to get better, especially if you finish it too fast. Instead of 30 videos in four months, do four.

The video quality is inconsistent...some of them have passable rips, others aren't so much. None of them are outstanding.

Work on a theme for each video. If you want to do action, stick with action. If you want to do comedy, stick with comedy. You only have 3-5 minutes to work with and about 15-30 seconds to really grab the viewer.

Don't spend so much time in the begining with titles, save those for the end, if people liked it, they want to know who made it, and what they made it with. If they see your name in the Begining, they'll know who to blame...

The videos I downloaded were
"A life not so bright"
Not too bad, quality was passable, but if you are going for humor, you need something to keep us laughing. Try lip synching or, even better, get the actual footage from Life of Brian.

"Cold Steel Outlaw"
I'm not sure what suggestion I can make here...I love the song and the series...but I felt a little lost. Like I said before, try coming up with a theme or tone, and follow that as best you can.

"Amazing grace"
With heavily ironic tone to this video, you are getting better as far as composing the video. The content is still somewhat lacking. Check out some of the guides on video compression. they are extensive and laborious, but you get great qaulity, and it helps with the making of video, because there are less problems (like that green line at the bottom) Also, you seem to have most of the series, so use that to your advantage. Obviously this is a song about Seras and Alucard...(one minor suggestion, when the line is "Was Blind, but now I see" it would have been cool for you to go between Seras with Blue eyes, and Seras with Red)

"Fallen"
Better video quality, and you are definitely begining to develop the theme more. but the communication of that theme is still lacking. Each verse can be used to talk about a certain aspect of a character, or a character in general. it's hard for the viewer to jump around a lot between timelines and characters within one verse.

"In the Shadow, In the Light"
This video started out fairly well. I could see a clear idea in it. It jumps into the expression of the theme a little too quickly, I felt like there needed to be more time spent on the estrangment of the two characters (whose names escape me at the moment) and then we could jump into the how what when where why sort of thing (so work on the who)

Feel free to make suggestions as to what you feel your best work is, as it is difficult to tell. When you upload them all at once like this, it is hard for someone downloading to figure out what the latest (and likely better) videos are...
