WIP : No Fate (Toki Wo Kakeru Shoujo)

Post by Funky-kun » Thu Oct 04, 2007 6:52 am

OK, so the initial plan for this AMV was to make it for an AMV contest, but I was short on time and couldn't finish the video with all the details I wanted. So now I have been thinking about how to improve the video, and this forum came into mind ^^. Right now I have the version I used in the contest uploaded (unfortunately ~100mb, but with good quality).

The chance of altering the scene selection is rather poor, but if you have some interesting ideas please share them :). I mainly look for improvements on the dialogue and the effects. Sync advices are welcome too. Btw the wings are added :P

Anime : Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo
Audio : Etherlords II - Credits
Genere : Drama

The story is different from that of the anime and I hope it will be easy to get. Please share your thoughts :)

P.S. Oh yeah, almost forgot - today I made some improvements - the ending scene is enchanced (4:00-4:12), the years are alligned to the center of the name at the end and the "rings" after 3:45 are blue, as in the first such scene.

the "portal" thing seemed weird... maybe instead of it like zooming like that (or was it an iris?) or something the whole window faded out and the camera zoomed in to meet it?

other than that i suck at this O:

and you could try "bubbles" around their speech.. it kinda reminded me of a video game as well... lol but i dont think that would be necessary as the text looked fine as it was... but im thinking of a soft white slightly transparent shape with curved corners and a solid outline O.o

Hmm the bubbles sound like an idea, but maybe it'll look like a manga lol.
But sounds interesting, will give it a try. About the portal scene - I'll rework it to make it better, I made that in a rush.

Any other voulenteers?

To make this more interesting, I'll offer ops for the people who give me constructive feedback and interesting ideas. JD you want an op on something? Tuna or Justin stuff? xD

haha i just saw "girl who lept through time" and something about "wings" and was like OOh i wanna see this O:

if you wanna op something go for it... (Tuna? sure?) but no stress... XD

or if you want you can leave a comment on the livejournal entry for "A Heart's Confession"? (it accepts anon comments if you don't have a livejournal - i just keep them screened)

either way don't stress it O:
I think the portal part was really my own nitpick...
