AWA Pro: Gainax Tribute AMV

I'll be nice and not type a lot here- given my video write-up on it is over 50k. -_-;; This was my AWA Pro entry, 'Bouncing Through The Years', which was a finalist in Upbeat/Fun, Dance, Sentimental, and Best Overall. As is (hopefully) obvious from the video itself if not from the topic title, it's a tribute to Gainax's many and diverse works over the last 20 or so years.

I loved this one. I'll try and write up an opinion sometime.

This was definitely one of my favorite Pro videos, and I was sorry to see it not win anything (ROBBED!!). I'm a big Gainax fan to begin with, but the video itself is just so damn fun. Great work man

Definitely my favorite video of yours.

This video won some VAT Guest awards, so it wasn't a total loss.

It's too bad you weren't able to use He is My Master. I mean this scene would have been PERFECT!

Awesome GAINAX tribute!

And you really liked Konomini?!

Holy crap, the comment history says you changed the video comments over 10,000 times today

I thought that number is the number of words it used to have?

Thanks everyone! I hadn't heard about winning any VAT awards for it, as I needed to get on the road to get back home well before the closing ceremonies where they are (as far as I know- they're something of a nebulous myth to me having never actually seen one- kind of like prizes from AUSA

).

Angel- I wasn't able to work in HiMM because of the timing of it, both in when it came out and the actual phrasing of the song- had I been able to use it I would have not been able to separate out the four shows from last year like I did. That scene would have been quite neat to have though- but then there were scores of scenes I would have loved to have used from all of the shows but was unable to because of the short amount of time I had for each one.

I've only edited the description once- I noticed something in looking it over that I thought needed more explanation. I'm wondering if anyone tracks how many words are used in each video description, and if so how far I am from having the longest writeup on the 'org (if this one isn't it).
