The White Knight Approaches

Greetings all you people who are reading this!

This is my entry for the AMV competition that was held at Anime(con) 2013 in The Hague. It was the first time I did any kind of masking so it probably could be better but I think it turned out quite well. The contest had 19 contestants battling it out for an Editor's choice award and an Audience award. I got 7th and 2nd place in those categories respectively. Which makes it the highest ranking AMV I've ever made. ^^

Anyway, I hope you enjoy and if you've got anything constructive you want to say, feel free to speak up. :)

So, here are my thoughts:

nice lipsync, story is ok thought the scene selection is a bit random here and there.
Your masks can be better, maybe a bit more blur at the edge(?), they also seem to have different opacity, or at least the background makes it look that way.
The pacing can be a lot better, you're going perfect in the beginning, but when the music goes up at 0:44 the video has no impact. Almost no internal sync makes it feel even slower.
The end is really building up but at 60% of the screen nothing's happening (only some movement at the 3 screens you put there)
Music goes on during the credits, but isn't long enough for the whole credits :/

See you at abunai ^.-
