aaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwww

That was cute :3 Who says Air videos can't make sense? This one did and you didn't even have to look hard. Having seen Air (and loved it, by the way) I felt pretty much like re-watching the series when I was watching the video. You linked three stories together in quite compelling way. Chronology plays a very important role in this video and it's good to see chronology in videos for a change anyway :up:

Anyway, it feels a little shallow because you just picked the most dramatic scenes. If you haven't seen Air, there's not much history behind those scenes to get emotional over. If this video was a bit tad longer those three stories would have had more time to evolve. It's also a shame Misuzu didn't get much screen time. The video could have been more complete that way, imo.

Anyhow, it's good to see less random videos for a change. This was by no means a minimalistic video and for an ambitious concept it actually felt uniquely 'complete'.. Techinically I don't have much to complain about. The pacing was fine and the fades worked. Some of the clips might have clocked in for too long but overall it was a smooth video technically.

4/5 :up:

Video's emotional impact was kind of lost on me since I'm not familiar with the source. I liked what you were doing at the beginning, and it was a solid, traditional drama vid. Good job. :)

Having never seem Air before, I really just couldn't get into it. The editing was solid though, and I do think that those who have seen the series probably dug this.

While it's not a keeper in my opinion, I still appriciate the hard work and dedication put into the project.

4.25/5.00

You lost me why you included the other girls besides Misuzu. Even though I've seen the show, I didn't get what the whole video was about. Sure I can try to match the lyrics with some of the scenes, but as a whole it didn't connect for me.

Also it was pretty misleading with the AMV title and the AMV banner b/c it seemed like Misuzu's part was in the video only a little bit and it looked like you didn't put as much effort into presenting her part as much as the other girls.

Otherwise, u know, nice video and all. g/j. :)
