Well, its not Dead to the World, but then again, how can anything compete with that. I'd say 4/5, minus one for originality, considering something like this has been done before. There were a few typos in there that I noticed, like "Piece" instead of "Peace" and "borught" instead of "brought" but overall I'd say this video was enjoyable to watch....a bit shorter than DTTW too, so thats kind of a plus.

I didn't like this.
Around the middle I completely stopped caring what you were trying to tell.
It was really difficult to read that shit. You should have just written it in german.
So with the story out of the way there wasn't enough left to enjoy this.
The grain was pure annoyance.
The fade to black and long pauses between the parts gave me time to reevaluate if I should continue watching this.
Music was good and you had some nice scenes in there. But I would have preferred watching an AMV that does not try to tell me something with a sledge hammer.

Time to respond!
@Omega:
No need to hurry. IT will get you anyway
@Crack the Sky:
But... When I listened to a MM record yesterday. I got lust for a second part. Manson feeds me with inspiration and I think that there would be some nice stuff (anime wise + songs) for it.
Thx for the detailed comment.
@-Good for Nothing-
@Falconone: Thanks. I love the oval =P
@^BlooD^: Wohoo!
Yeah ok... I overlooked "Peace", but "borought" really bugs me. I spend a lot of time to fix this shit and than it´s in the final encode again. Fuck it...
@Streicher:
I already responded to it somewhere else so to keep short: I´m well aware that this might be a real wtf-vid if you don´t want to read so much (well that´s ok). The story is just the basement in my eyes.
Yeah ok. Thx ^^"13 minutes of fuckwin" is what I want to say... but that doesn't make sense... so I'll just let you know I enjoyed it.
@Omega:

heh;_; the bunny raped meeee.
Yes they are willed ovals and I played a lot with shadows (out of a Photoshop layer). Thanks for the comment!o.O
oh dear should there not be circles... I see ovals
but that's a uhh concept amv and a half
Glad you enjoyed it anyway!zomg! /gets aswell :O
EDIT: Not my kind of video but this was AWESOME Bauzi Very Happy excellent horror presentation and aswell as the editing. Good Job
Thanks Fizziks =DI have to say...that was pretty damn cool!
@Crack the Sky:
To be honest. I didn´t thought about the long breaks. I closed my eyes and listened. Whenever I had the feeling that they should be longer or shorter.... I did it. Afterwards it wmaybe would be too much without breaks.-I wish you could have found more interesting ways to combine the songs, other than just fading them out then back in.
yeah okthough I wouldn't go so far as to call it "horror", really
I was a bit sad when I read this, because the story of the current project is a simpel character profil.we need more creativity like this on the .org.

@-Good for Nothing-
I say, you don´t want to now how I did it for this ^^' To sad that I found out about alternate Photoshop brushes too late =/and I'll show you how to animate/draw blood better
bloody letterboxed animes like Animatrix :/also, if the ar was constantly letterboxed it could've been much more consistent.
that´s a good idea!mezzo forte would've worked, for instance
wow. I´m really glad, you like it! Thanks man for the comments and the help.btw I loved the outro and the last bit the most, felt very epic to me |:<
@Falconone: Thanks. I love the oval =P
@^BlooD^: Wohoo!
Thanks! But if you like it, you should not miss Beowulf´s Dead to the World !I really enjoyed that! ^^ Marilyn Manson rocks and you rock for making this! XO
btw the ending...was..rly..scary p.p
I don´t like to stand in the shadow of someone, but I´ll have to deal with it.Well, its not Dead to the World, but then again, how can anything compete with that.

Cool... Thanks man =DFor my first watch: Really great, outstanding shit (in a positive way) as I have expected from you.
Can't say more for now, I'll check it detailled, when I got more time.

So what we have here is an attempt to make an epic video that doesn't succeed on all accounts. First issue I have with the video is that it seems so much like the Beowulf Marilyn Manson Project and so doesn't really make me feel this video is that original. The content itself is pretty good but there wasn't nearly enough editing for 13 minutes of video. Most of what you had didn't really impress me too much, I was expecting some really crazy editing and storyline but I got distracted by the filters and changes in the song that it got kind of boring before I was half through. Still a pretty cool concept it just seems like the video is insisting upon itself. 3/5
