Sesshoumaru meets the Fangirls

Post by jubjub2 » Tue Sep 13, 2005 2:48 pm

Hi Everyone!

This is my first lip sync/cutouts video - I have been so inspired by watching everyone else's, I thought I would try my hand at it.

Let me know what I can do to improve! XD

That was pretty fun. :)

My biggest complaint is all the combing. Did you deinterlace or IVTC your footage before/after editing? And did you set Premiere's project settings to "No fields (progressive)"? If you specify a field order, Premiere will make all your effects interlaced.

Also, though there were plenty of nice fangirl interaction moments, there were also a bunch of shots of the fans that seemed kinda random, especially anything including Sakura... just didn't fit somehow.

It was somewhat odd to see certain lines perfectly lyric synched (like "Milan, New York, and Japan"), and then to see some other scenes that didn't seem to have anything to do with the lyrics ("too sexy for your party") -- I think you built up a certain level of expectation with the compositing, that I felt you could put together almost any scene you needed (within bounds of reason), and then it didn't happen.

But you definitely show promise, and as I said, it was fun. Keep it up!

Thanks! I didn't know about the deinterlace feature in Premiere. I am sorta learning it by playing around with it.

Next time I will definately check that! ;o)
