I pretty much agree with Arashinome and Dn@. The mood was just off and the tv simulator was ugly and pointless. Decent editing though but also too much sync.

Editing in general had nothing outstanding and i don't know if it's just me but the output quality on the mp4 was not that good for such an HD footage.

2.5/5

Hmm...might just be my computer but the quality was a bit strange at times.Like at 0:41 I got a black blurry and pixelly shadow around Renji and at 0:52 the colours on his clothes look disorted.

But nice concept and editing.Liked the scene selection,good job! :up:

Aggressor wrote:That was enjoyable. Definitely better than "another ef AMV" for me. Flawless camera work and the exactly needed amount of shake/noise/brightness correction, I really like this editing style. All I could complain were flapping mouths and not perfect sync in thost fast-scene-change-sequences. 4/5 for me, + high rewatchability (what an ugly word, hehe).

Awesome AMV, CTS!

Thank you everybody! I'm just too damn lazy to do individual replies for everyone above, so thank you for watching and commenting! I'm very happy you liked it!
ArashinomeAMV wrote:Can't say I dug this one. The editing was pretty good but the animation didn't work with the atmosphere of the song at all imo. Made it feel pretty stale to me. 3/5 for being well edited tho.
Hmm...don't know what to say, I think the animation works perfectly with the song o_O Thanks for watching!

First thing, the TV simulator I used with a purpose, so I kinda disagree with you there. Also, the film roll was meant to last as long as the solo, it would have looked weird if I had cut it short and the solo kept going, so I just did it for the whole thing. Also, my source footage was far from HD, and it looks pretty much exactly as it does in the source itself so...don't know what to tell ya.

Thanks for watching anyway!

Yeah, tell me about it. I had an incredibly difficult time finding the right scenes for the whole video, so I did what I could with what I had. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Bakadeshi wrote:great editing. thought this would've done better in drama though, it wasn't very romantic.
rofl

Truth be told, I only entered this under romance because I also wanted to enter Phobia, which would only fit under drama. I totally agree, though there are more sides to romance than just the lovey-dovey stuff :P
Castor Troy wrote:I liked it, but to be honest, if I saw this on the big screen anywhere, the fast black fade parts would have driven me to blindness. :x

Good stuff, but it's definitely a "monitor" video rather than a "big screen" video.
I agree, haha. Still, wish I coulda seen it on the big screen anyway...
Warheart wrote:Because I don't really get why this didn't win anything.
Probably because it was entered under "romance" (see my response to Bakadeshi).
Warheart wrote:Other than that the video was definitely one of the better videos I've seen past months, a keeper for sure.
Thanks man! Glad you liked it!
MycathatesyouAMV wrote:The mood was just off and the tv simulator was ugly and pointless.
Hmm...as the creator of this video, I can definitely tell you that the TV simulator effect wasn't pointless >_>

I think it might be your computer, I have no idea what you're talking about o_O

That was totally badass, Benny. It took me three or four times watching it to actually understand what was happening, but the first two of those were on the big screen at Acen, and I hardly ever retain any information from convention viewings.


...actually, I'm not sure if I've finished watching it all the way through on my computer. Both times I tried to watch it, playback stopped maybe halfway through. I'll try downloading it again so I can remember how it ends.

EDIT: Um, apparently I never downloaded it in the first place, so I have no idea how I even watched it at all after Acen. Irregardless, can I set up an interview the first sentence of this post is still true.

EDIT AGAIN: I read your notes about this video and that made it like three times better. The description itself was really interesting too.
