Crossed -- It's...well..a cross-over

*sighs* I haven't made one of these topics in quite awhile


For the uninformed, here's just a couple facts you should know prior to watching this.

But seriously, this is an amv a long time in the making -- (perhaps too long for what it is). It's pretty random in many ways, and in some ways it's not. Ultimately it's a collection of a bunch of cross-over clips & scenarios I've managed to create over the years all edited to a song. A lot of these ideas were either things I wanted to see, things my friends wanted to see, or random things that somehow ended up working well together after lots of trial and error.

Admittedly, most of this footage ended up being made for the lulz. :P
Refer to the amv's comment page for more info. Especially if you have questions regarding the footage played during the credits.

Hopefully you can find just one cross over clip within this entire amv that you can actually enjoy to some degree. It'll make all that footage I poured months-on-end making worth all the effort. Enjoy!

Wow.

If you had put a darker, faster song, and published your amv 4 years ago, you would have written history. I give you 4/5, great job.

It was really rough around the edges, also transitions and sync was iffy and didn't really work most of the time.
Although, I really liked the ideas and effort put into this video. it was fun.
So for that I give you a :up:

Good luck on future work.

Thanks. Admittedly, sync was an afterthought on this amv. Making the footage itself became top priority. And since more sync would eventually = disposing of more custom made footage, it wasn't something I felt like doing. So instead, I aimed to create a general flow as oppose to timing every little thing I could to a beat. It's something I plan to fix on my next attempt (which probably won't be finished for another few years). lol

heh. Point taken. I'd be lying if I denied the fact that amv's like "The Race" didn't have some kind of influence on the making of this.

Good stuff, great choice of the sources, some of them were really nostalgic as hell. :up:

I also enjoyed the music choice, it wasn't annoying at all and most of the time because of it I didn't miss any sync. The randomness was really very clear, but overall it didn't destroy the entertainment, just for next time I would at least advice you to use a kind of main theme.

But in general, 4/5.

With a better quality, and with some color correction that could be epic. However I still enjoyed! 4/5 :up:
