[AKROSS 2011] Fairytale of Lies

[Warlike Swans]

This is a distillation of everything that is awesome about Romeo x Juliet. I didn't care for the dialog from the dub (as an idea it worked, but I think the voice acting is weak), but otherwise I loved it from start to finish.

Absolutely sublime from start to finish.

Fantastic dramatic elements, a great romantic tale and lovely effects adding to the overall mood. I loved the addition of the voices throughout the video. It really added a flair to it.

I highly recommend.

thanks code

myea.. It had quite a lot of nice drama in it indeed Because I'm obsessed with beat sync at first I was merely bothered by the lack of it but then the whole thing sorta pulled me in and I ended up enjoying it quite a lot. And yes, the voices were a fun and original add to it.

thanks for watching it all the way thru, i'm glad you enjoyed it

Really well done, awesome AMV, nice lyrics sync, I liked the effects, and it's actually amazing you edited to the whole song. Actually it may have been better if there was mroe beat syncing, but it was still good.

yeah within temptation does a lot of long songs i've noticed. i was more aiming for a drama vid than i was action, hence the not taking as much advantage of the beat sync as i could have.

Like I mentioned before, it was really dramatic and intense. I didn't even realize it was 5 minutes long because it passed by so quickly since I was enjoying it that much. Definitely a great tribute to the series and a very high quality AMV. Good luck in the contest!

thanks! really glad the 5 minutes didn't drag XD

I liked it a lot. I liked the flow/pacing of it all, imo I think it was the right choice to go lighter on the beat sync since it slowed down and amped up along with vocals which really emphasized the intensity of the drama in the visuals as well as complimented the passion in the singers voice. Overall the scene selection created an energetic intensity that kept the whole video going.

THANK YOU, means a lot coming from you, your stuff is really impressive. i can't get enough of safety dance and written in the spirals.

Seems someone paid attention to what I said in Akross

Anyway, my friend, I have to say that there were some facts that disturbed me in the beginning, but after minute 2 I started to like it. Even when I felt it long, I have to say that this entry is one of my highest recommendations of the Con.
I'll leave an Op explaining what facts I mean

thanks i'm pretty intimidated in general by the akross competition so that's good to hear.

I love this AMV it does a great job showing emotion and the part with the dialogue from the anime gave me goosebumps

it's funny, usually i get flack for using dialogue (especially english dub) in my videos. nice to know i did it right finally(?)

It's been months since I watched an amv and now i get this... wow, I'm missing lots of fun here! Once again, great job. Gave me the chills twice and also, kudos for using the proper "slow" scenes where there was supposed to be lots of action, it worked perfectly. Good luck on Akross Rider, we're with you!

THANKS for the kudos! glad the "slow" scenes are appreciated and i'm eager to see where i fall with the rest of the competition.

What CodeZTM said, i thought this was great

thanks

This AMV needs more lovin'.

Very powerful and dynamic. I hooked this baby up to our 50 inch and lo what a site it was to behold!

I sure do hope you compete in other competitions after Akross. Conventions would eat it up.

[Rider4Z]

HAA!! thanks glitzer i love hooking up my laptop to my er 42". i do that for my birthday.

It was nice tho voices kinda pulled me out of previous mood and i was like: whaa? Kinda too rough for me D:. Also whirly(?) effects or dunno what it was. Anyway nice vid overall . Good luck.

[Rider4Z]

thanks, sorry the voices distracted you. surprisingly enough i've mostly gotten positive feedback about the dub being in it. that's a first for me lol
