It was nice.

I couldn't follow your clip selection though. Having seen Sola, I thought it was terribly random.. Just faces and dramatic poses all over. After the video ended I felt like the biggest realization made was that very literal interpretion of the song..

Technically.. Well, I've seen things synced better but it was smoother than usual ;) But it was a little disturbing to see sharp cuts and fades mixed together like that O.o Anyway, the video had a nice sense of flow going on that I liked :up:

3/5

A little too much hard cuts for my taste. Also I was a little irritated from the changes in colors, I mean from the dark scenes to the ones with sunshine. On the other hand I liked how the flow of the video adjusted to the song, and the quality was excellent. Nice video.

3.75/5

Dang, how have I missed this for 2 days? I've been looking forward to it too since the beta!

Anyway, I'm glad to see a much less effects filled video done by you... it's somewhat refreshing even though I've always regarded you as one of the best editors who incorporate effects for external sync. And Natalie Imbruglia for the win!

My biggest gripe is that it went on for waaayyy too long. If any song ever needed to be cut, it's this one. It wouldn't have been too hard, either, the song repeats the same exact lines for like the last minute. It's annoying :/

Good quality and editing, but it's not anything I haven't seen done before.

3.5/5
I think same as CrackTheSky, I would want to add I've particulary enjoyed the moment 00:00 -> 00:04 =)

Great editting and the sunlight theme was definitely there, plus Matsuri is like anime girl of 2007 so you can't possibly go wrong 4.5/5. *ops it*
Yeah, i didn't fully follow through with what i had planned though.. it was going to be much better.... next for sure.

Like if i was seriously to rate my vid, id give it the same you gave. The only reason i didn't cut the song was mainly because i liked the entire song, but yes i have a cut version of this amv as well. My main problem wasn't really the length though, more so the random inserts on a few parts i did, i really just slopped it together which i know i shouldn't have. As for the predictable/obvious lyric sync, i was gonna cut that down bigtime and add some effects, but it never happened. I assure you though sir, my next vid will be better ^.~

... i don't know how u ppl quote all these, so ill quote the rest later.
