The opening song/tune/whatever is annoying, but other than that this was pure awesome. Easily the action video of 07, so far anyhow. My only editing criticism would be the lip sync looked a little loose at times, like you just found a scene that worked, and let it flap away, but that's quite minor compared to how much ass this kicks. Unlike user names who proclaim they do.

I'd suggest reading the VidID tag announcement in this forum, you don't need to type all that, it'll do it for you.

Definitely looking forward to your next release!

It seemed to me you got kinda lazy with the effects at the end... I was digging the shaky cam stuff in the beginning though. Maybe I just got tired of the song (its not my type) and the action became less fun to watch? I don't know, but overall it was still pretty cool, and the ending (of the video) was neat and memorable. Not really sure why you showed the bird again, I've only seen a few episodes here and there of the show (only enough to know who the characters are). The ending credits on the other hand were just... weird. :?

Yeah, cool action 8-) It's one of the best BL videos evar! Well, some troubles with lipsync... It's a bad point. BUT it's only one bad point in this vid. So, Bonefixer, you've done a great job. Almost perfect action.

Easily the action video of 07
Don't forget about this video at next VCA, ok? :wink:

Hm, not a bad start I guess. You still have to work out a certain balance between the effect and the actual editing I think some things like the brightness/contrast effects went a bit overboard and a bit more variety would've been nice, but all in all I guess you have quite some potential. About the Lipsync though; I'd just leave that alone because it really looks stupid if it's not deadon like it should, and that's the case here so next time put more effort into actual sync or just stick to normal effects + editing which is more efficient for action videos. Moreover the Texteffect got on my nerves so that's something you might just leave out or improve. But the mood and the sources were just fitting so I really enjoyed watching this. I'm also watching forward to your next release. And I still need to buy Pslams of Extinction ;).

I have to echo Warheart. Some of the effects were overdone, and the lipsync needs serious work. The text was quite annoying. If you need to emphasize, do it with synch, not with text.

Yeah, this could have been done without lip sync, but the video itself was pretty cool. The best Black Lagoon amv i've seen so far :up:
(no need for an outro like that in my opinion).

Things that went wrong:
-Lip sync. OMG that screwed a lot
-You don´t keep your style (and effects design) the whole amv long in my eyes
-Style of fonts ("Bye bye" etc.)

Song isn´t not so good for me, but 4/5
