What makes us human

Post by Sephirothskr » Sun Oct 19, 2014 9:11 am

Well. There's a story to this video. So I'll explain it before I go into the video itself. I met this wonderful girl last year. Things between us never worked but I always had feelings for her. Earlier this year, it kicked back up again and we were together happier then ever. Unfortunate circumstances changed that and it's just me now. This video was originally being made for her. So I ask of you to keep the emotional commitment I put into this in mind when you watch it.

This is an upbeat romance to the song - This is what it feels like - Armin van buuren. (WHICH I BELIEVE I'M THE FIRST ON THE ORG TO USE THE SONG! :D) The beginning will be sad, and somber. And it picks up from there. I'm sure you'll pick up on it. So here it is, enjoy.

I really appreciate it when editors express themselves through their videos. Even if I don't necessarily follow whatever emotions the editor might be trying to convey, I love it when videos are created as a means of catharsis or release. That said, I didn't like this one that much. Your editing is improving, but this still feels a lot like many, many other multi-anime/pretty scene/dance-pop/vocal trance videos that have been released over the past few years. It's okay, and if it's personal and meaningful to you, all the better, but it was just forgettable to me.

Still, great to see the passion! Keep it up!

Thanks. Lol this was more pure emotion than a skillful attempt.

I really liked the concept of this one a lot. The clips in the first half of the amv though I thought felt kind of were forced transitions (I hope that makes sense... they just didn't seem to flow into each other I guess is what I'm trying to say, they just seemed to abruptly change...yeah that's kind of what I meant hopefully that makes sense to you) The second half seemed to flow a lot better though. (Maybe you did that on purpose though and that concept flew right over my head... maybe I'm just not that smart) Other than that, the black screens again... I made the comment on another amv I looked at of yours where it needs to be more of a dip to black.... for the most part you did this dip to black a few of them seemed to long though :29, :35, 1:30, 1:37, and 2:07 ish... these ones kind of stood out for me as being too long and not as much as a fade or a dip. However overall the concept was really strong, the song fit the sources well, and it was very enjoyable to watch.
