#3: Fall_Child42
This was just really cool. It had a neat concept, it was really interesting to watch, and the subtle internal sync really added something special.
#2: Copycat_Revolver
Throughout this entire segment, knowing Copycat's style, I kept wondering where the clever, humorous twist was going to come in. And it did at the end, it successfully made me laugh out loud at the randomness and ridiculousness of it. Good job CCR, especially 'cause this isn't the kind of stuff you normally edit to. (And Greg, it doesn't spoil anything, I promise.)
#1: wurpess
This track completely took me by surprise. When Ingow passed this to me, all I could think was "God help the next editor", because I had absolutely no inkling of a clue how anyone could work with it. Somehow, though, wurpess took the most unlikely anime and made it work absolutely fantastically. This was the high point of the MEP to me, and by far exemplifies what I was going for when I came up with the idea for Improv. Excellent job, wurpess.
Some honorable mentions for me include the tracks by Ingow, ArashinomeAMV, Krat, and Hagaren Viper (you should see the waveform for the audio he had to use - more or less completely flat).
And meleechampion - I do have to say, I was pretty disappointed with yours too. When Greg handed me that song I really wanted to see it done well, 'cause it's really cool stuff. You started it off solidly enough, but you went way too crazy with overlays (which I personally hate if they're overused).
So yeah, those're my opinions.
