Thanks a lot, I'm glad to see people's opinions differ slightly than mine in regards to the Afro video, and that you enjoyed bothIngow wrote: ...I thought that the afro samurai one was freakin' kickass :p
rock-action at its best, outro had a nice beat to it too :O
the mononoke video was great editing-wise and the song was very powerful. It's also nice to see an epic-type of video that's not working with a source that pretty much does all the work by itself through its high end animation pictures. the only thing that still bothers me I'd have to say would be that it's not a completely fresh concept but in the end I enjoyed both videos a lot :>

Yeah, yeah, I'll be sure to whore out effects in my next video, or somethingkisanzi wrote:Action sync? Flashes? Overlays? Who still uses those...?
j/k
Very smooth stuff. Both video have a simular flow to them and they both work seemlessly with their sources. I especially like the Mononoke vids' use of "stutter" cuts, very stylish. Keep up the pace and keep putting out more great vids!
VNS FTW.

VNS ftw :O
Thanks, as for the outro, I'm not really sure why I made it so long, I just really like that track I suppose >_>WC Annihilus wrote:Nice job on both (though the outro on the afro one was long though =O)

Thanks for the opCornwiggle wrote:Left you an OP for your Afro vid. Nice job, though I wish you used episode 4 and 5 >_>

Thanks, I have to agree with you on this one, I prefer the song with Hallowed Rage as wellRathiSponge wrote:I enjoyed both of the videos, good editing and synch. I didnt enjoy the Afro Samurai one as much as the Princess Mononoke , it may be because I didnt care much for the song used in the Afro Samurai AMV. Not your fault though just personal preference. Good job on both though

Hey, hey, it's not the length of the video, it's how you use it...Prodigi wrote:Lurv the AS vid. Mononoke vid was gewd times too. Only downside to either is the length ;_;
9/10 - AS
8/10 - Mononoke
(Thanks

Please do, maybe it'll give you a neat sort of contrast, or something >_>ScorpionP wrote:I liked the Afro Samurai one, so I guess I'll check the other one, too:)
Thanks for the comments

Damn Aussies :OLockstock wrote:i'm with prod, they weren't long enough :/
but yeah, afro samurai one was actually pretty good and the mononoke one was really well done ^_^
These two videos were done in a fairly seperated timeframe, I was just really disappointed with the AS one that I never got around to compressing and uploading it. Though I do agree, I think the final product of one larger/more work video would have looked nicer, I enjoyed working quickly and simply with these videos.Warheart wrote:Well instead of making 2 videos you should have focused on one video and combine the effort of thsoe two. Still both are decent stuff to watch nothing I'd keep for long though since they have nothing special about them that makes them stand out, other than being oldschooly (no effects no unique sceneusage). Anyway that's it.
Thanks for the input, and I'll get to work on making something special that stands out now though, just for you Alex ;-*
Yay for simplicity. But yeah, I do agree that they have a rushed feel (AS more than Hallowed Rage, to me) but I also thought that would be an interesting outcome, to just barrel through it and look at raw cuts, whatever just comes out, rather than making little tweaks along the way.Fair_Child42 wrote:both had a somewhat rushed feel to them, (especially for you Mr. 5 months)
But I think it forced you to keep things simple. and I mainly liked the simple action synch and such.
Thanks for all the comments everyone, I must admit I'm kinda surprised by the positive feedback, maybe I'm just too critical of my own work >_>
