[AMV-France] The Contract

[AimoAio]

I really love your editing style. There's a certain confidence to it that permeates your whole video and makes this feel special.

Thanks.

Ok, now that I read your description the ending MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. XD When I first saw it on AMV-France I thought it was just a "oops. The thing is ending, BETTER GET FIGHTING"

Great video. The overall concept was pretty solid (except for the aforementioned ending that originally confused me), and the editing was fantastic.

Also, good to see a Madoka video out of you.

Haha I better work more on my storytelling next. Glad you enjoyed it though! :3

I like it
No big issues. Just, about your story : really unclear to me watching the vid

Well at least now I know where I need to improve on. One of my problems is assuming people see what I see when it comes to AMVs. xD

If there was a Best Madoka AMV for the AMV-France contest (and there should have been), this would have my vote. Good stuff!

Aww thanks! And yeah I was really surprised there were so many Madoka videos for the contest, I actually got a little worried the viewers might have already been bored by the source before my video even got around to premiering.

Loved it!

this

Very nice

I enjoyed it

Thanks ya'll.

Really liked it. One of my favorite of the contest.

Thanks Kaipi. And thank you for beta-testing too. :3

Mhm editing wasn't bad but it lacks something for me tho i liked last err 1 minute more than rest. Also low opacity effect(?) with movement looked kinda weird/bad for my eyes. D: But i guess overall it's edible.

Haha I'm not hugely fond of that effect either but I couldn't really ignore the sync there, it was too obvious. And I really couldn't think of any other ways to work around it xD so apologies about your eyes. Glad you liked the last part though, I was sceptical since it looked like a mad mish-mash of scenes at first.

I really like it.

I like that you did go for a story when most actions videos I've seen tend to throw that idea out the window. Even without knowing the story the editing and sync makes this very enjoyable to watch ^__^

Have fun with Vesperia!

Aww thanks! I'm glad the source wasn't a throwoff for people since it's getting so overused now. And Vesperia is brilliant! *o* I'm lovin' it so far.

Great pacing and nice editing. Nothing of really impressive, but still enjoyable.

Just, about your story : really unclear to me watching the vid

x2, but it's ok, I usually don't understand stories in AMVs, lol.

Thanks, And it's alright, storytelling has always been one of my weaker points.

I would never guessed this one was yours, so that was a nice surprise! I really liked this one, it's one of my favorites from the whole contest, no doubts

I'm a sneaky person. Nah, just kidding. I felt like trying a different style this time and the song was the perfect chance to do so.

I really like this one May :3 There are a lot of madoka magica's videos, but this is one of the most creative. Good job!

Yeaaah. That was one of the few things I was worried about since there are TONNES of Madoka videos already out there. But glad you enjoyed it Giuls!

I loved it... the way you combinated all kinds of fights from the series was really well done.
Makes me want to finish my Madoka amv... I hope that the passion won't dissapear until I get a new computer since my current one is really not able to edit.
I didn't check out org for a while so I'll have to catch up on all your new vids as well as other's

well anyway... great job

Glad to see I inspired someone to get working. And haha I haven't really edited much since Enchanted and You're Too Cute. I do have a few ideas lingering and some half finished but they're not really up to my standard so I've kinda lost motivation to work on them. xD

Your editing was pretty good here! Nice work!
I personally didn't like this song in combination with Madoka but this is maybe just my kind of taste
For your story...sometimes I thought I got it and then I lost it again somehow. I think there was a little bit too much going on besides your main-story. It would be easier to understand if you took a few things out...I'm a very lazy viewer you know xD

But all in all it is a good work

DON'T BE LAZY!!!!! XD But I'll keep that in mind for next time! Thanks Jade. :3 And yeah it's a pretty unique song. xD Most of my beta testers weren't huge fans of it either LOL.

it's not my type of source, so I couldn't really get into it that much, but i never get that in the way when judging something. Editing wise this is really well put together.

Thanks! I can imagine how weird a combination this is for some others.

Saw this at Anime Boston literally not even an hour ago. Had to leave the show early. Good job.

Oo thank you for taking the time and commenting on here! It's sorta disappointing I can't see the audience's reaction myself at the convention but it's always nice to hear people say they enjoyed this at the convention! It's what keeps me editing and submitting. ^^

Nice Amv
Have you got a pretty simple style editing
Also have you used a kind of song that is different from other amv of Madoka

I'd be lying if I didn't say I usually go for simple editing because it's easy and I'm lazy. Still it's nice to see it come out effectively and have people enjoy it! :3

Edit:
480p is now encoded. Encoding Xvid sometime tonight or tomorrow and both will be available this week for download. ^^

Contract with a Pancake? D:

I've just seen a couple of betas before, but I was surprised of the changes since the first beta D: It was different from the other Madoka videos I've seen so far, and I enjoyed it :3 (this song sounds familiar... Guitar Hero? D: )

Boss approves

[Rendakor]

Yea the song (AFI - Miss Murder) was on Guitar Hero 3.

[AimoAio]

Rendakor is right. :3 Such an awesome song.

And contracts with pancakes are deadly. D: You don't want to go there. They make poison coffees and bagels for their bosses and then take over their places. D:

Updated first post with direct 480p links.

I got most of the friday and saturday showing's recorded and once I get them compressed I'll be uploading them to my youtube channel so you can get a chance to hear the crowd reaction. I honestly thought The Contract was going to take Best Action at Boston, and I think during the recordings you can hear me say that more than once <.< lol (on a side note, your Enchanted won Best romance and I've posted the winners showings already if you haven't had a chance to take a peak at that yet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwbWNmNSnlg#t=7m28s )

You know you are awesome right? You deserve a medal for recording this! But wow, it feels so good to see your own video up on that big projector. And to hear the crowd's reaction too...even better!!! Also I've been wondering for a while who that was who kept mentioning The Contract in the videos you uploaded...now I can put a face to that voice. Though I couldn't quite catch the full thing because the music was pretty loud.
