Yeah, I thought the nostalgic/melancholic part was working out fine, but I guess that was just from my viewpoint when I was editing it.Ingow wrote:my criticism would be this:
the song always kinda had a very nostalgic/melancholic kinda feeling to it for me, and I guess that's the mood you IMO didn't exactly hit. it was more of a romantic homecoming with drama elements to it. the whole video also had exact lyric sync instead of a real coherent storyline/plot. which is confusing since the song does.
As far as the exact lyric sync goes, I was counting on it to be somewhat broken around(bad wording, but trying to get to the point), kinda like what the ova actually was(or the first and third story at least). There isn't really so much a coherent storyline in the song, but more of a collage of nostalgia. At least that's what my thought process has come to while working on it.
Romantic homecoming, that's the only thing I don't see where you're coming from.
Thanks, I wanna see YOUR Fort Minor video nowReigna wrote:Definitely one of my favorite videos from acen's contest. It's a great song, and I think you did it justice. This is one of the few 5cm vids I can watch without getting bored immediately, and this is in my top 3 as far as 5cm vids go. Really nice video, and congrats on the award. Good work, Riceyyy.

Hmm, I think I know at least one part of what you're talking about and I was looking at it the other way when I was at it.Yukinon-chan wrote: there were parts that I thought were crutiall where the video and the audio where in different directions, which is a pitty because it was all good except that..
No, given the content of the song, it isn't really necessary to keep the genders matching. sorry.guy07 wrote:you should of kept it so that the girl was on screen when the woman was singing and the guy for mike.

and in the way I was going, it would've just been more redundant and cheesy.
(also, Jonah Matranga is singing along with Holly Brook during the verses :ohsnap:)

x2 I really loved this one. I had to watch it twice to appreciate it though since the first time I was a little surprised by the combination.CrackTheSky wrote:I love you Ricey. This video is awesome. Love the story, presentation, flow, scene selection...not really anything to complain about. A well-deserved win. Good job sir.
5/5
This song has been stuck in my head since acen :P
