Here are my latest two videos.

A Kaleido Star video done in a Cirque Du Soleil style.

A “Hell style” video using only one source anime and one song.

Enjoy folks.

Hey, I've heard this song before.
That happen to be your inspiration?

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Funny. But, sadly, no. I've always been a fan of the song and it was something I came up with a few years ago while watching EVA for the upteenth time. I try not to watch videos with a song I plan to use for fear that it might sway my ideas. But thanks anyway.

EVA Heaven
Stuff like this has been done before, and this ultimately didn't really stand out to me. It was fun, yeah, but it was hard to really get into it because it went all over the place. I know the song does that too, but there wasn't any real connection between one scene and the next to make the video look cohesive, and it failed to really capture me. Still I enjoyed bits and pieces of it - enough to get a 3/5 from me.

Kaleidoscope
Although the concept was uninspired, I must say that you took an anime whose AMVs have almost universally failed to impress me and kept me interested. Great song/anime combo, and really smooth flow. The scenes just kinda melt into one another and it's a really easy video to just get lost in. Quality was on the poor side, unfortunately, and the nature of the song will keep me from rewatching it much (if ever), but it's still a pretty solid video. 4/5

I was a bit disappointed with both because every other video of yours that I've seen shows real creativity and in the case of your comedy videos, wit. Neither of these lives up to what your past videos have made me come to expect, but on their own they're not bad at all.

Keep it up :up:
