AMV-Review #33: Spatula_Castle's Go Back to Sleep

[Warlocket]

Spatula_Castle, I might drop an op later if you want?

Yes, that's perfectly fine with me. Any and all feedback is very much welcome.

It can force you to examine a work or character from different angles, a relationship (keep it serious here), without having to go through the drugery of "and this is how the story began"... someone already told the story in detail + a recap ep(s) (usually), if you want all the details, go fracking watch it.

What I've always found interesting about series-centric AMVs, which one would assume the viewer really does need a basic knowledge of the source to "get," is that some people can "get" them just fine without this knowledge while other people are completely clueless. (Then, of course, you get the people who ARE familier with the source but don't understand your treatment of of whatsoever.)

While we may try extremely hard to present a certain story a certain way, in the end we have very little control over what kind of receptacles it's going into. People will inevitably interpret AMVs the way they want to. Sure, it can be a measure of how well the story is presented if the viewer's interpretation matches the editor's, but there's no guarantee and it will never be 100% across the board.

Emphasis mine. I'm always suprised whenever anyone asks permission to voice their opinion. If you want to voice your opinion, do so, if they don't listen or disagree, don't invest further but there's not much to loose for giving initial feedback.

Hmm, I meant more like "Your video just got AMV-review'd. Do you need my op?"

I guess many people like to have opinions no matter how much of them their videos have received already though.

Your op will be op within 7 days propably
