LAME has this problem with high-bitrate MP3 streams in AVI, but I thought it was only for 256 and 320 kbps.

yup, I agree all the comments about the fact that song was really repetitive, but I didn't want to try cutting it... that could have been even worse with my skillsomegaevolution wrote:cookie cutter fetish O:
cookie cutters ftw
nice AMV, it got a little repetitive near the end but I liked the work you did with it, though yeah after the cookie cutter number 50th it started to get a little old XD. Other than that nice, happy AMV, nice synch too
4/5

cookie cutters XD

Beat sync: Good.
Effects: Way too many PIPs. What is the point of putting multiple mostly unrelated images in the same frame? The human eye can only look at so many things simultaneously; it's better to have quick cuts from one scene to the next than lots of little squares competing for attention. If you want to use multiple images in one frame, then make them cooperate to form a cohesive, "whole" image.
Mood: This IS a mood-driven song. There is no story in the lyrics. You gotta figure out how to convey a celebratory mood beyond "lots of people smiling and dancing and frolicking in the meadow."
Other: There were some funny moments. Syncing the banana boat to the cheer made me laugh.
Quality: If you can't make rotoscoping look good, don't bother. Choppy edges are just distracting. Same goes with the PIPs...you could at least add borders to the squares or anti-aliased the edges. In general, it looked like you were using fansubs or just didn't bother to pre-process your DVD footage.
