But the fact that this romance amv was edited in a different resolution, considering that usually akross entries are 720x480 or 640x480, was very clever. And for the feeling, I never got bored or get the feeling that something was missing. Pretty enjoyable, and now, we only have to wait until the results are up
Thank you for the comments. Glad you enjoyed it.

Maybe it's cause thats just the way it usually is and I'm used to it but I doubt it. The source and song looked like it worked well but eh, I just can't get into these panel vids.
I can understand that. It can be rather confusing and a jumbled mess. Which is why I had so many beta testers, I kept worrying that I was going overboard and getting too complex. So yeah, I can understand people who don't like the panel thing

And thats saying a lot coming from me because I generally tend to stay away from Romance AMV's. I'm more of a fast paced person myself. Though I have been known to edit one on a rare occasion.
I applaud your efforts.
I would be very interested to know what exactly your timeline looked like after completion.
Thanks. I usually hate romance vids too actually. Just since I was experimenting, I figured I'd do a genre I'm not used to either.
As for the timeline, it actually looks pretty boring. Each pane was in it's own sequence (with settings of 320x480). The master sequence just had these nested in it. On top was a mask with the black bars between panels. Despite how complex the video looks, it's actually pretty simple. It was sometimes difficult to keep track of what I was doing in what pane though since the process feels kinda like editing 5 videos at once. Technically I could have done it all in one sequence. That would have required 10 or more tracks and, more annoying, would require motion controls on every clip to put it in the right spot. With the sequences I only had to do motion controls once per pane. If you don't know what I'm talking about (and if you have an early version of Premiere you probably don't since it couldn't do this), it looks like this:

You might find it amusing that at least one of the betas was named "what does godix know about romance he's getting divorced"

Good stuffs godix
Thank you. And thanks for looking at the beta
