wow. this video is very much deserving of my:

screeny ;p
Awesome job on the synch and mood of the piece. You used alot of synchs and effects in this to actually emphasize the mood and story, which is what I like to see in an amv.
One major problem though: Waaay to over filtered. It has what I like to call the pastel effect, where color edges become apparent where gradients should be, making it look like a pastel painting rather than an animation cell, Either your settings may have been too strong, especially if you used a DVD source. For the Air Movie also, which has alot of softer color gradients in it, you should also have probably used the "w3d" option for Deen instead of "a3d" or "c3d" as "w3d" preserves gradients to avoid the pastel look.
Other than that,

sadly not my kind of AMV to watch over and over again
. But I must say that the edition was beautifull, but I just can't stop thinking that all romance AMVs are kinda the same :/. Kudos for the edition as I said before. Hope to see your next one soon Danielle

Yay, reply timez.
That means a lot to me!

Now to go reply to your beastly op. XD

<.<
...maybe. /awaits retarded qc's.
I know how much you like this song, and I was worried that you weren't going to like the video. As for the synching...I usually try to synch to beats that I feel will be fitting, and I guess it didn't work out as well in this case.
And you're very welcome for making it. I love the song, and I really did enjoy editing the video.
Thanks for your comments!


teh lateness? uh ohz. :O
Hmm, I actually did use the "w3d" option for Deen when I filtered this. But, I admit, the settings I used were a bit high, so I'm guilty there. I do agree with you that it could have used less filtering...I have a habit of going overboard with that.
Anyway, I appreciate the comments, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I'm not sure about the audio error you're hearing...I listened to the same section, and I couldn't hear any issues.

Glad you liked the editing...sorry you didn't get into the romance shtuff, though. Thanks for teh comments, Omega.
Yay for sox winnage?
Aw, thanks, Gina.Reigna wrote:Wow, seeing the final version after watching this video progress from day one is seriously awesome. Everything just flows and the video does a really good job of capturing the shininess of the movie. This vid grows on me every time I watch it, and it's something you should totally be proud of. Hawt stuff indeed, Danielle.
VNS ftw.

Thanks, Bauzi.Bauzi wrote:I want to thank you that you really took this song. It was always a little dream to see an awesome amv with this song (Tyler = austrian band, therefor it rocks :3 ), but hey I´m not an editor that makes (can?) romance amvs. So really really thank you ^^
Overall I give this 4/5. It was interessting to see all the layer and fadeing stuff, but I think it was sometimes to much synced to the beats and yeah that was kinda distrubing to me. Just nice.

And you're very welcome for making it. I love the song, and I really did enjoy editing the video.
Yeah, whoops. I'm not sure how I managed to mess up the extension...and how I even failed to noticed it was screwed up. Thanks for watching anyway, glad you enjoyed it. XDMiyaDV wrote:.h264.txt o.O lol had to rename to .mp4 but other then that this video is made of pure awesoness!
Yes, like angelx03 said, the movie is pretty colorful and bright...I did mess with the brightness in contrast in a couple spots, but just for synching purposes. The scenes are all pretty bright, in general, though.ScorpionP wrote:Well edited, I liked it. The only complaint I have is that some scenes are too bright, but it's not such a big bother and I'm guessing the movie itself had strong colors...
Nice work
Thanks for your comments!

I know, it's awesome that Air is finally licensed. Exciting stuff. ;p I agree, the video is very depressing to those who are familiar with the anime....I was hoping to get that feeling across, especially toward the ending. Thanks for the comments!Willen wrote:This video, plus the fact that Air is getting a US release is making me happy. Well, the actual video is kinda depressing, especially if you know the story... Nice video anyway!

Thanks for the feedback, Kaxi.Kaxi wrote:This video is very similar to your previous one, Lost Paradise editing-wise. The audio was okay but i've heard an error at 1:03 (it might be my comp but i don't think so). Nice mood sync and some masks were great. Overfiltered or it was an effect i can't decide.
4/5
