"Remember Our Promises" - my first real amv

Post by sebbo87 » Thu Aug 21, 2008 2:32 pm



Hey guys - i want to keep it short, because everything stands on the description of the amv page :)

But: It's my first AMV that i made up myself, with own cuts (not that movie maker stuff)

I've worked 16 hours on it + 6 Hours to find the right codecs ^^

enjoy it

The amv was pretty bad, but it seems like you have some promise

good
You knew some basic sync at times.

At 1:53 it was pretty cool.

Song choice

Bad

Length of the amv: There wasn't any development at all which made this amv completely boring.

The fade to black scenes: They were annoying and you could of used just a basic fade in and out. Though it kind of worked for the piano keys.

Scene Selection: It is in dire need of improvement.

Aspect Ratio is wrong and the quality was bad. Use a DVD footage next time or at least edit in loseless O:

You need to learn to make the amv pop out more when new sounds come into place.
Example from 2:49 to 3:08 you could of done a lot with that.

Oh boy, my longest post ever. <_<

I am not trying to be mean, but just to give you some pointers.

I appreciate that and halfway expected that... somehow ^^

to the song: It's very smooth and spheric. i could cut it into pieces but i dont want to.
Slowly i think this movie seems more to be a tribute to the song instead to the anime xD

I know that an AMV with extra explanations is not good but i wanted to finish this :)

My next project is more with Picture in Picture fading and less black, i swear ^^

and the footage, yeah it was nice quality, but i did a lil mess with the export of the program, i will change it next time.
