I have to say that was jaw dropping! it was absolutely amazing and really cool. I definitley know that had to take a long long long long long time doing all the masking and everything. Excellent job!

If I could of voted for it I also would have voted it being the most artistic! I mean WOW. I really like the "dance into the fire" parts.

I will give out my full detailed opinion on it when I get the chance! [I've been saying that a lot because I'm really behind giving out opinions on mvs. lol] Because there has been so many goods amvs coming out lately I've just been downloading a lot.

I really happy people like this video artistically and all those hours now seem well worth it all

The masking took almost a year of time. I treated every section of the video as an individual project and used very complex masks so that the characters looked like they belonged there... Worst thing was that in order to get the depth I wanted; I had to use several masks in some cases with different degrees of feathering, etc to achieve the look of the silhouetted characters.

Ironically when I got the idea, I though it would only take a few months

That was awesome. I loved how you gave both animes a complete new scenery, it worked throughout the whole video. All the work and time you put in surely payed off
