All I can say is..... This is awesome!
I loved the blending of live action and anime.
Scene selection was very well done for the most part.
And it left me with like a happy feeling.

Some scene I felt didn't fit, but that was just very very few scenes not that it matters. But this is really great touching video. You got your point out there for sure. This is my favriote video from you.
5/5
(y)

Also quality I don't mind at all. The video itself is really great, so the quality doesn't matter. :)
Thanks! Sweet lol, so people are liking the pan/crops after all :awesome:
Lol yea I'm not usually one to care about quality either, thanks again :)

I liked it, although in my opinion you should had kept it in colorless until later on in the song, as well as using a different than the obvious Sun-burst scene from place promised in our early days. It would had given i much better impact with that, I think.
Other than that, I thought it was good. Didn't like the texts too much though. But oh well, matter of taste I suppose.

Good job.

Good job.
I definitely considered keeping it in grayscale for a bit longer, or switching back to grayscale after the first chorus, but I figured people would lose interest if I stalled it out any longer than necessary. Of course this resulted in a bad mix between color and non-color later on but hey when life gives you grayscale, you make lemonade :nose: . As for the obvious sun-burst scene lol trust me I tried really hard to use a different clip but couldn't find any that "fit" as well as that one, so after going through around 10 alternatives I settled for the cliche. And I hate the text used in the video too simply cause it's an ugly font (though that might not be what you're referring to).

Thanks for the comment, much appreciated :)

I liked it. The first minute was better imho. It was boring after 2min ( but yes the music didn't help you :x). The scene selection could have been a bit better too

Well done Lopez.

I enjoyed the video quite a bit and this is def by far your best video yet.
Great job as always with your laid back editing style.

One of my favorite "feel good" AMVs to date.

Also it seems like most people were too sleepy to watch your video :P
I don't edit. Usually.

I really loved this, the over all feel to it, and the scene selection just went perfectly together with the song.
My only complain is that the text could have been used a bit more creatively rather than just plain text, but that's nothing big.
This is definitely something beautiful. =] 5/5 :up:

Tbh this video got me in a sense that i watched it and i could just tell you are putting yah all in this and it looked like a big anime get together .
For that sense it was great .
Soo many cuts per second and lotsa happy clips and sync and stuff great .
It was consistent to the littlest of degree.
People go on about the quality it is not that bad at all apart from the music video footage .
Nothing really negative to say about this one apart from that there wasnt a Big development in the video it was predictable sorta you know .
Ah but keep going bro feel proud : )
