Reach: Zankyou No Terror AMV

[andrewbee]

Like most, I really enjoyed this anime. The story revolves around the main narrative although in a slightly different direction.
In essence, this is my tribute to Two Characters that had the Drive, Perseverance and tenacity to Reach their goals despite rejection and retaliation from the leaders of Society.
Technical note, quite a number of shots especially the scene where 12 and Lisa take a drive on his bike have been reworked to improve visibility. The source material was graded pretty brown and grim.

Appreciate the comments. Enjoy the Video.

That was pretty nice. The mood and pacing were well executed. Could go without the tv logos though.

Thanks for the comment! Usually, I painstakingly repair the source material and was going to take the easy way out with that by slapping on widescreen bars but it wasn't bothering me as much since I wasn't making it for a competition.

Post Mortem:

So I have watched this several times and I am quite happy with the overall outcome. There are still some timing issues. The Intro scene of Lisa paying her respect could do with a few more frames.
Softer transitions between the death of 5 (eye zoom) and 12(to the building explosion).
A friend thought the Escape scene when 5 burns(she really loves fire) could be swapped around with the glass stare of 9 and 5 to emphasize the lyrics, which I can see working but still happy with my cut.
Also, wanted to add comparison shots for some improvements to the source. Not many will notice this, unless you plan on working on the source material but I am pleased with my effort. Some where done to improve the shot quality, others to help with my direction.

I enjoyed this one. I didn't notice any timing issues which you mentioned in your post above mine directly until after I read the post and went back and re watched the amv again. So I thought it was pretty well timed and transitioned well. They were pretty minor and not majorly noticeable unless someone pointed them out. At least that's kind of what I thought.

Thanks! They are certainly not major and can still be enjoyed. I forgot to put spoiler warnings though As it reveals allot of the plot. Apologies to anyone still watching this and hasn't finished it.
