It was alright, I didn't really dig the song that much

Pretty, though I have to echo (aha pun) a few of the comments here about being lost. Looks like I'm missing out

thanks for the comment

Oh yes, this will be showing at Manifest

angelx03 wrote:Definetely one of the better Soultaker videos out there. But overall, I found it to be very similar to Soul Shadow in terms of visual atmosphere (since both videos used trippy anime series directed by Akiyuki Shinbo) and especially the ending.

I'll definetely watch this again as long as I keep Petite Cossette out of my mind.

Yeh, i'm familiar with Soul Shadow also. I think the editing style is greatly different throughout the two videos though. Watching them simultaneously, you can see similiar scene selections (which was buond to happen, due to the lyrics of the song, and that both animes are visually similar). But in terms of editing style, they definately reflect two different areas. Although the end was similar though, but i think the song screams for an ending like that. I'd highly recommend Soul Shadow to anyone who has seen and enjoyed this video. Thanks for the comment

Thanks.

Yeh, knowing the plot does help, although the video kinda moves off on its own little story arc.

SSJVegita0609 wrote:/me stamps with seal of approval.

Nice work you two.

Thanks.

Infinity Squared wrote:One question though... Haven? Kinda confused, here... isn't Heaven more appropriate? Meh, it's your vid.

The title refers to two things. "Echoes of Haven". Echoes refers to the multiple girls who make up the one entity that is the guy's sister, Runa. Haven, in reference to him searching to make things better, so while heaven is appropriate, it isn't as appropriate as Haven, which crops up in the song ("No haven for this heart...")

Thanks.

ScoobINSMDBZ wrote:Great job you two.

Glad it was finished.

It's pretty.

I'm glad i finished it too. I only have Liz and Koop to thank for that. And Lockstock, for his amusing "OBJECTION" to me halting the video.

Thanks Kham. I like your stuff

so hearing that makes me feel happy.

Thanks Reigna ^^

I'll watch the anime and then rewatch it. As it stands now, it just looked like random stuff to me. Not to say that this is your fault...

I wouldn't suggest watching it. firstly, the anime actually isn't that great. From a source point of view, its fantastic, but from the point of view of watching, not so great : \
Besides, the 'story' (i use the term loosely) kinda goes off on its own tangent from the story of the anime.

x_rex30 wrote:I'd give it a 5/5 since it's you guys..

but on a realistic standpoint, it wasn't my thing.

Footage and music wasn't a great match.. they didn't blend together all that well. Of course the editing was good.. though some effects I didn't like.. over all just didn't stick out to me as great. 3/5

Thanks for the comments.

AtomX wrote:Of the 3 My Medea videos I've seen thus far, this one is easily my favorite.

Good work guys. Very very well done.

Thanks Brad, coming from you this means quite a lot. I'm sure you know by now that I look up to you in terms of editing

(and music taste of course O:)

Melanchthon wrote:Nice vid, looks beautiful and has a suitably epic visual feel, and the 'stained glass' effect was well-done. 4/5, but I still prefer Soul Shadow (which I've seen so many times that I know where you synched the same stuff). I don't usually keep vids that are similar to ones I've seen before, but it's a good SoulTaker vid, and I can't say no to that.

I think the argument lies in the fact that any half decent editor to use this song would be bound to synch on similar beats, as the song has very dominant beats in some places. Although i think in terms of editing style the two videos are different. But my view might be biased

dacoolgohan wrote:It was alright, I didn't really dig the song that much

That's what it always boils down to, personal taste in music. Thanks for the comment

Onoes, a Krat. Thanks for the comments dude, and yeh, i know its kinda hard to make connections between the scenes, but it happens :p

I haven't seen it, but I think it sucks.

OK that was beautiful. I can't tell the effects from the anime cuz i've never seen Soul Taker. That just shows what talent you guys have. Now I have GOT to watch this show.

OropherZero · Post by **OropherZero** » Mon Jul 31, 2006 3:20 am

See, I would have stalk you down town, walk to your front door and slap you across the face if you didn't release this, for now I can finally delete the BETA =D Good job, easily your best AMV, even putting aside Koop's part which was good - since to me the start of an AMV is the most difficult part anyway

Tempted to try this series again without the dub... but it was the most painful anime experience I've ever had watching the first episode of Soul Taker (in dub) so I'll think about it >_>

It'll be sure to kill at Manifest =]
