Yea, so. This is my first video. Please be gentle, guys. But PLEASE say SOMETHING. I really want to improve and become better with each video I create.
Since this is my first video, it's very experimental as I tried to understand all the tools, etc. I'm sorry for the small size, but I had trouble trying to make it 100MB.

Not a bad first attempt. The video quality is not bad for an mpeg. You used DVD footage ( or so it looks) And theres no interlacing, major props to that, you passed the #1 hurdle of first videos.
Conserning the size, Your about at the target size for a video of this length. Generally 50-60 megs should be the max for one of this length. People tend to not want to download files close to 100 MB unless they know its going to be good.
The main problem I had with this video is alot of the scenes seemed like it was just animation playing silently with music in the background. (like I was watching mononoke hime and playing the song in winamp) Not enough synchage, and some scenes felt like they played too long. You had a few good lyrical and beat synchs, but not enough of them. Alot of the onscreen action and movement could have been timed to stuff in the song that didn't feel like it was. Your scene selection for the most part did make sense though, and you had a few good synchs as I said. Not bad for a first, Keep up the work.

That's true. I never thought of that..Bakadeshi wrote:People tend to not want to download files close to 100 MB unless they know its going to be good.
After seeing all of the great videos around here where EVERYTHING is synched, I'm feeling really inspired. I probably could have done more if it weren't for the fact that I was -so- pressed with time. That, and there's still so much I have to learn from Premiere. Now that school's almost over, I'll have the whole summer to experiment and improve.
Thanks.
