I really do hate Chad Kroeger's voice. But I won't hold that against your video.

Overall, great editing and effects usage. Though I do wonder about why at 00:37 you applied a strong orange glow to the character mask. It was a little gaudy, compared to the more organic effects you used throughout the video.

Too bad the video is so short, I would have liked to see more! :up:

Excellent use of the Ken Burns Effect and some pretty solid match cutting/transitions. Good stuff. :up:

Also, Welcome to the Org. |:>

OMG! You finally uploaded a video here. |:> :awesome:

In terms of your video, I really like the way that you synced everything. I've actually wanted to make a AMV with this song for a while, but I had such a hard time syncing it and maintaining a good pace that I had to cancel it. So I'm definitely be taking notes from this one :up:

Ahhaha he does have a rather gruff voice, I'll admit. And that effect at 37secs was just me messing about with sony vegas. Now when I look back I wish I hadn't used that horrid orange colour though, it's quite disgusting :'D
And thank you! I'm so glad you like it ^_^ <3

I really enjoyed this. I'm really sad that it's so short though. :(

Still, pretty solid editing and was a really nice piece that captured the song very well. That bit towards the very end (around :49) was really powerful stuff.

didn't like the overly literal "path less traveled" scene, but good job.
