First off, welcome to the org! :3

Also, if you don't want to type all that info out, the forum has a nifty "vidid" program that will do it for you! Just stick your video id [the number at the end of the URL on your video's profile], and viola!



++++++++++++++++

Anyway, let's review the video!

I wasn't font of the watermark on the top right. It takes away from the viewing experience, and really doesn't help fight AMV theft [it takes less than 5 minutes to write up a cropping script that will get rid of it].

Sorry, I'm a watermark nazi. xD

Editing wise, you have an ok grasp on sync. A very trancy AMV, but I felt like some of the scenes you chose were boring to watch [such as at :26-:31], which are very static scenes without any movement. I also feel like you could have matched the flow of the music a little better. There were a lot of beats that went un-edited, and felt like it was just slapped on top of a catchy song [1:00-1:16].

Also, you might want to request permission before you take scenes from videos. I noticed at least 2-3 AMVs that were taken from [Fate Matrix was the big noticeable one]. There's nothing wrong with the practice, but you should at least give the editors full credit in your description.

Anyway, just keep at it. You picked a hard genre to open up with here. Since this is your first time here, I'd like to link you to a handy guide.

Anyway, good luck in your future AMV endeavors.
