I noticed you used a lot of the "3d" scenes in that anime which gave a pretty cool constantly moving effect. I liked it :)

Not counting the instrumental versions there are 3 versions of Rules Of Nature out that all feature lyrics that work perfectly in context with Attack on Titan. Why you didn't go for any of those rather than making a terribly sounding cut of your own baffles me. What we're left with is a bad audio cut that merely focus's on the track's catch phrase, while immensely epic in context it gets lost here if that's all we're exposed to.

So now you have is butt's flipping around then a obligatory "Rules Of Nature" moment and then more butt's flipping. This give me no idea of the conflict, motivations and struggles of the [as described by the actual lyrics that you butchered out] beast/predator and it's agile prey. Basically reducing the video to nothing more than butt's swinging through the forest and a town shouting rules of nature twice. Even the Rules Of Nature sections probably don't have ample impact for the uninitiated. It just feels incredibly lackluster and too straightforward for what it is without any depth. I'd recommend trying to develop a more comprehensive narrative in your videos moving forward rather than relying on what feels like an AMV rendition of the Rules Of Nature goes with everything meme. Lack of further visual crossover between Jack/Raiden and Erin or anyone for that matter was really disappointing as well. I was expecting far more based off the poster crossover visuals and aesthetic.

Actual lyrics btw, and here the most straight forward cut that could/should have been used.
Spoiler :
The time has come to an end
Yeah – this is what nature planned

Being tracked by a starving beast
Looking for its daily feast
A predator on the verge of death
Close to its last breath
Getting close to its last breath

RULES OF NATURE

And they run when the sun comes up
With their lives on the line
(Alive)
For a while
(No choice)
Gotta follow the laws of the wild
(Alive)
With their lives on the line
(No choice)
Out here only the strong survive

What’s done is done
Survived to see another day
The game of life
The hunter and the agile prey
No guarantee
Which of them will succeed
Strong or weak

(yell)

Rules of Nature

Sorry I just really like MGR :shrug:

@Niotex I guess I fell under that meme without even realising it. I just liked the pace of the song and the sound of it and made an amv based on that. I agree, I never considered the lyrics and I never planned to. In the future however I shall try and make a stronger connection. As for the song cut, the end bit was weird but other than that I liked it. I actually prefered this more instrumental version that I found and used rather than the one you provided.

Thank you dazzle
