You can always tell an action video by either you or your sister because they all have 0 violence. Tons of people running, jumping, climbing trees, but never any real combat.

The video was very enjoyable and very well put goether. If I were making it, I would have peppered it with some real fighting but my judgment on these matters is far from gospel.

I nominated it for various things

good work as usual Silver. Solid editing and pretty good use of effects, rotos et lyp synch. Perfect atmosphere with the song
4/5

That was awesome =) I loved the beat of the song and the wonderful syncing and the effects. It was amazing (as usual)!

I will give my full detailed opinion on it later when I have the time. I've been so busy working I have 30 mvs to opinion still. lol.

I have to say I agree with this one, the flow of the video is probably its greatest strength. How all the action scenes flow seamlessly into the next almost like it all was one anime. Good job on your scene selections there.

Not a huge fan of the song, but that was some very solid editting. Very well done.

It's kind of true, but that's the last non-good thing I can say about that. Timing, scene selection, effects, flow...it's all great. Rozard actually told me about this today, and I'm glad he did! I really liked the stutter black space done at 2:05...that was timed so perfectly. Great job, as usual! WHY ARE YOU SO GOOD!?

Speaking of being so good, would you do me a great favor and mail me some of your talent? I know you have some extra lying around somewhere...

Lol, I guess that's true. Well, what can I say? We're girls.

I'm glad you liked it.

That's good to hear. I consider flow to be a very important part of a video, and I try to pay attention to it as much as possible. So it's good that it's showing through.

I was somewhat disappointed with the quality of the distro version myself... I figured that since the vid was only two and a half minutes, I would be able to make it a fairly high bitrate and still make it be around 50 MB. Unfortunately, it turned out to be pretty hard to compress for some reason. Maybe it was because of all the noise effects or something.

Wow! silver_moon makes a pointless action video. That's amazing. Anyway, like a few people here, I really didn't like the music, which unfortunately lowers the replay value for me by a lot. Aside from that, the editing was very good and matched the intensity of the song. Action sync here was all excellent. I may not ever find myself watching this video in a loop, but I'll still keep it and use it as one of the great action videos I play whenever I need to wake myself up and get my adrenaline going. Nice job.
