Download

Well, what can I say about this video? For starters, download this one :lol:

Anyway, this is partly a celebration of the year that's gone by, in terms of AMVing for me that is (because a year ago was when my studio was created) but also because now I've passed all my university units and hence, no more school! So yeah, all of that means this is a sappy video... sort of.

It's a bunch of different anime, all of which were favourites of mine counting from last year as well, so have a look at the list and see if any of them takes your fancy. You might just end up wanting to give this video a good home ;)

Enjoy!

I liked a lot of key parts in it and some places the mood synch felt nice.. but for the most part felt like filtered up downloaded footage that kills a lot of detail but makes things look smooth(to say the quality was clean but you can tell a lot detail is missing and this has little to do with the overall joy factor of the video.. but it does help to have it look nicer) with a lot of randomness. Some strong beat synch here and there.. but overall just music flowing with random scenes that sorta match the lyrics is what this felt like. I enjoyed a lot of it but just felt it did lag and could of been a lot better. 3/5

Ey, thanks for the quick response, I appreciate it :)

To be honest (now that this is out here), I put very little planning to this video, so I wouldn't be surprised indeed that it turns out to most people as a lot of randomness.

Mmmmmhhh .... :roll: 4/5 :wink: Like X_rex30 (why 30 :) ), if you had less smoothed your sources footage, I will have given 5/5 because it's has video good. Not a supercoolvideoofthedeath but a good sentimental vid. :)

Video had some solid beat synch throughout, and I could see an overriding theme despite the randomness of some of the scenes. Interesting mix of despair and hope as well. Video left me with mixed feelings, but good job overall.

yea the end made my eyes a bit blurry... and i was going to comment on some of the filtering myself lol.. some of it looked a little too filtered but yea i guess im just beating a dead horse by now :P

it did seem very random... mostly the darker action sequences didnt fit the mood for me O.o...

i think the elfen footage you chose fit, and the host club and a couple others... but to me it should have been one or the other... dark action crap or sentimental happy crap...

but overall i like it and good job at stealing "my" song lmao XD
