Rainy Season (Spirited Away/Vienna Teng)

Hello everybody! Good to be back. After a forced hiatus from editing, I shook some rust off and made this little bit in about a month. It's another of those concept-based vids I'd been developing in my head a bit, and this will definitely not be everyone's cup of tea. It's pretty old-school, for one, which I know is not a style everybody enjoys. In any case, if you do decide to go for it, I'd recommend turning the lights off, putting the headphones on and full-screening it.

Feedback is welcome. I'm really curious as to what the reactions will be on this one :)

Enjoy!

I see hot virgin goodies here that i must download :twisted:

*edit*
I'm impressed, I think it has better flow than anything you've done so far, the mask near the end is a little "zigzagged" on the edges and some of your mattes (or what ever they are called in I-movie needed a liitle more work.
But you know what it works for me... keeping and adding to my everyday playlist :D
ps the music is great!

Hehe, I know why you said it might be to oldschool for ppl but I guess I still have some love left for a bit simple & touching editing. Glad I decided to watch this, it's not perfect in terms of editing but I somehow like it. :)

Yyyyyesssssssssss!

EDIT: Still don't like any of the effects you used, really. They all look intrusive and distracting. The video is pretty good besides that, although it kinda breaks down near the end...I know you were having trouble with the scene selection, and in my opinion what you have near the end is kinda random and nonsensical...from 3:12-3:38 is kinda 'meh' to me. Overall though, good video, I'm eager to see what you'll come up with now that you have FCE :up:

4/5

x2, glad you are out of that "forced hiatus". I will edit my post later with my thoughts about it ;)

EDIT: that was cool :). The edition wasn't aimed to the beat synch (except in some parts), but the lyric synch and the atmosphere of the AMV was just great, I really liked how you pulled this one off ^^. Also the ending with the texts was a nice addition to finish the AMV... "it was just a dream" :D. Great song BTW

4/5

Hmm.. it was alright... not a fan at all of the little squares and circle masks you put in there. As for the 'old school' comment, I would not consider this old school by a long shot. 'Old school' videos relied on straight cuts and only a few fades, if any, your use of masking, fades, and blurs takes it out of the old school realm really quick for me. I would've actually preferred it better if it didn't have most of the masking that you added and just stuck to the straight cuts.

This video fails! :down:








Okay, j/k :D
I love this song and the way you put it together with the anime is great. Yeah, its not that great editing-wise, but i like the video overall. I'm glad you made that ending, it made the video a lot more understandable, and i liked the way it was executed.
So good job Greg!
