Oh, that was a very good video. The editing was great, the transitions were indeed awesome, and I am hooked to the song. The "train wipe" (lol) was a bit overused in the video (lol x2), but still very nice.

4.25/5

Nonononono.

No.

The train wipe is a visual metaphor. Possibly frog related.

O:

It was decent. I found most masks cheesy/choppy and the train wipe was kinda off looking and kinda unfitting/overdone. The video was however pretty enjoyable at some of it's parts but kinda threw me off with the weird turning points in the flow and sync. anyway, keep it up in the future.

I liked it a lot. It's difficult to pull off a video like this with the characters being used sparsely and from unusual perspectives. I don't know what these naysayers are talking about: Train wipes improve exponentially the more they are used.

Now, I'm not sure if you were trying to be more colloquial or something, but it seems to me that the text that says "This is why I rather be..." should be "This is why I'd rather be..." Anyway -- keep on keepin' on.

Thought the concept was funny for some reason, good aswell. It was enjoyable, but the only thing that i disliked was the train slaps which bothered me in this video. maybe cause you used them a tad to much, but the other slaps were okay and well executed....good stuff overall.

Ya know, when you first popped up here you were more pretentious than a beret wearing mac user sitting in a coffee shop spouting freeform poetry. Over time you kinda grew on me though so now I merely despise you instead of having that bright hatred that flows through the veins like burning metal. So let me tell you something as a friend, or at least as close to a friend as you're ever going to get.

Everyone here is intentionally setting you up for failure. See you suck. We all know you suck. Hell, deaf blind mongoloids who couldn't possible see or hear your video know you suck. But the people here are telling you encouraging things about how they liked it anyway. They want you to delude yourself into believing that you have even a slight spark of ability. They want you to take the same total lack of anything remotely resembling skill that you've displayed in this video and apply it in the real world, to real customers who expect real results for their money. I'm not privy to the entire plan but I think the goal is to fool you into being such a buffoon that even Michael Bay looks innovative by comparison.

Don't let them confuse you! You know how late at night when you're lying in bed and can't sleep? Then the thought occurs to you that maybe, just maybe, you aren't a special and unique snowflake like mommy said you were. You think that perhaps you don't inspire men and speak to their souls but maybe what you're really doing is producing the video equivalent to the aftermath of giving exlax to a cat then sewing it's ass shut. You should pay attention to that inner voice. Go with your gut. Deep down you know the truth.

So ignore these simpletons and their devious plan for you to make a mockery of yourself. Instead shut yourself in your mothers basement. Do not expose your work to the harsh treatment reality will give it. Become such a recluse that your neighbors think you passed away and the org goes 'remember that guy serv0 from years ago? I wonder what happened to him?' It's the only way to not make a fool of yourself. When you're 50 and looking back at a past of shattered dreams and failed chances you'll thank me for it.
