Re: Zero One AMV
Wow! This is really great, super clean! I really like how the rhythm is synched to the action.

Re: Zero One
Yeah, unfortunately you're not going to get too much feedback here 
I was very ambivalent about it, to be honest. A huge part of that, I think, comes from Animatrix fatigue -- I've seen so many Animatrix videos over the years (and made one myself) that all these scenes have just kind of lost their oomph to me. But beyond that, while your editing was quite good, the effects work really took away from the video, I think. This is just personal taste -- I prefer to see effects-less videos vs. those that have a ton of effects, generally, and I didn't think that the effects really added anything in this case. It felt to me like you were experimenting with a bunch of different things and didn't really know which way to go, so you just threw everything together -- sometimes that can work, but in this video it just didn't. There didn't seem to be a lot of focus and that's what bothered me.
Along those same lines, I also wish the video had more of a story or point to it, but again that's personal taste. I like videos that are more focused and thought out. This one was just all over the map and without any direction it just felt kinda messy.
You did do a good job of syncing everything, and overall I feel like the video had great visual rhythm. The video source was also a good choice for the music -- they fit together very well. Still, wasn't enough to get me to really like it, sorry :/

Re: Zero One
thanks for your thoughts! were there any effects in particular that stood out to be unfitting/distracting?CrackTheSky wrote: I didn't think that the effects really added anything in this case.
