There's a lot of potential here! The video flowed well, the effects were used pretty well, and the cuts were in good places. The cuts, in fact, are what I like most about it, especially since I have a hard time putting cuts in interesting places.

My main complaint is the video quality, especially considering ACC is a bluray movie. The quality wasn't horrid, I've seen much worse, but it did detract from the enjoyability of the video. Both the video and audio source is overused, and I'm pretty sure the combination is too, and while I don't think using an overused movie/anime/song/or combination is a bad thing, you don't get any originality points for it. :wink: While the effects were well-used, they could have been used more creatively.

From my experience, ability to edit well comes before being able to edit well in a creative way.

Anyway, nice job! Keep practicing and I look forward to how you'll improve. :)

Oh! thanks alot! ^^
I totally agree with you, but the reason why it's so overused is because i wanted to remake an old amv :]
and at first i just wanted to put it on YT, so yea ... that's why the quality isn't the best D:
Anyway, thanks alot! i really appreciate it .

I'd contest that point, just for the hell of it. I feel like we need more quirky and poorly-done vids to break down the oppressive genre conventions in place.


nicely edited vid, btw

Pretty much summed up my thoughts.

Oh, and I've seen at least 15-19 videos with this same combo. How do I know? Checked my opinions Given. xD

So... Originality's a negative for sure.

However, I really dug the editing. :up:
