The Iron Hero

[EkaCoralian]

That was... That was....

HOLY SHIT. HEROMAN = IRON GIANT.

The way everything matched was just FANTASTIC. What an amazing and fun trailer! I usually don't even LIKE trailers, but this was one of the most adorable things ever. The editing was really great, the lip sync was fairly accurate and the overall atmosphere was just THERE.

Now, a few scenes fell a little flat here and there, but on the whole, it was just a really great experience.

Very nice job. Very very nice job.

/goes to find VHS of this movie and relieve more of said childhood

=D Thank you so much! (And reliving your childhood through this movie is a great idea. I must've done it at least twice while working on this trailer. xD)

indeed pretty sweet

... I never watched this movie hehe... booyah!

But really. You should watch the Iron Giant. :3
Thanks!

Wow, that was such a good combo. While there were a few scenes that felt long on the run, the part in the beach was great and overall pretty good.
Nice trailer

Thanks very much! Ugh the beach scene took me forever to do as well. xD I mean there's literally one scene when Joey just dives into an ocean, but the problem is that its stormy, dark, and generally just didn't hit the atmosphere. So I had to go with wading. =P Heroman in the water was easy enough, since he doesn't really go near water in any other circumstance. xD;

I can only echo what was already stated, this combo fit together perfectly, to the point where I couldn't remember what the actual Iron Giant looked like xD Great job finding all the parallels between the two. Well worth spoiling myself a bit [/still has a handfull of eps to watch].

Also agree with a couple of scenes seeming off, like where Joey says "We've gotta hide!"...But he's already hiding.

Fair enough. I s'pose I got kind of lazy at that hiding scene. =P Originally I was trying to find a clip from that same episode when Joey tells Heroman that they, well, have to hide. But most of the scenes involved either them hiding or them running. I guess I could've gone with Joey pleading to Heroman at the end of episode 1 though, come to think of it now... xD; Oh well.
And hah. xD Weeeeell looks like you're going to have to rewatch the movie. ;D Thanks!

That!!! For me it's impossible to dislike any of your videos >:

Love you Ruby. Thanks so much!

Nice The lipsynch and some scenes could have used more work at times, but good job at fitting the anime with the lyrics and sound effects.

Much obliged. C= (Sound effects were fun to match up to. : D xD Though I'll admit, I'm guilty of trying to pull off one thudding sound effect with an effect akin to that of lightning. xD; There were just no scenes I could remember that had Heroman just falling and sitting down normally.)

Saw this yesterday. Enjoyed it a bit, brought back some memories. Fucking awesome movie/trailer though.

Oh indeed. Iron Giant is a godly movie.
Glad you enjoyed it, if even a little bit. ^_^

I liked it. You drew your parallels clearly, and a lot of the foley integrated seamlessly. The cuts during dialogue felt off-kilter sometimes when you changed the angle of the speaker mid-sentence. I also thought the translucent WB logo looked weird, since it's officially shown as opaque. One solution would have been to mask it out, but I think it would have worked just as well with it completely removed. You could also show a parody logo or one for Studio DEEN to further link the sources. Similarly, the final shot where the title is shown would have really sold your concept if you'd mocked up a screen that read "The Iron Hero". Good work.

ps - Is Hogarth's Heroman-double a boy or a girl? <_<

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I was a bit iffy on the logo as well (and was planning to try and mask out the UFO so it would overlap the logo, but laziness took over, I'll admit.) I was also planning on adding the Iron Hero as an outline from the start, but I decided not to because of the audio saying 'The Iron Giant' and the fact that I fail at Photoshop. Working on improving in it. -_-'
Thanks though. =D And (oh I knew someone would ask this question xD) Joey, Hogarth's anime counterpart, is in fact a boy. He's just one the most feminine-looking and sounding boys in anime I've seen yet.

we are still not pretty sure

Hey, don't go misleading people now. XD

This was pretty nice !
The combo was definitely spot on and trailer looks believable.

Bonus points for using The Iron Giant period. This was nicely done to boot.

Though, on 2-3 clips, the video quality got kind of weird; but that's being really, really picky.

[Glitzer]

I've seen trailers with the utmost effort put into them but without a solid concept, their value is undermined.

Here, your idea flowed spotlessly. I can honestly say that if I had not seen the Iron Man movie then you could of very easily tricked me into thinking this is a trailer for the actual anime. That, I think, is the ideal trailer.

I've actually only seen the movie once many moons ago, however I'm very impressed at how your trailer sparked some interesting memories of it that were lost to me. Like Code, I have the sudden desire to watch Ironman, along with the actual anime.

I've also just started my own trailer as well, and I'm going have to request your expert opinion

Thanks, Cross. : D It killed me to wait 15 episodes to finally sit down and make it, but it was well worth it. ^^

Thanks a lot Drew. : D (Iron Giant = win anyways. :3 xD)
Yeah I think the quality messups were mainly the beginning and one shot of where Heroman leaps up. I'm not entirely sure why the beginning was pixelated like that (I mean it got like that before I put in a pre-rendered clip.. o-0) but Heroman's leap was from a credited opening. There's a textless version out there but I kept messing up downloading it. It was weird; bad file, I guess.

=D Thank you so much! (And I'm sure you meant Iron Giant there. XD) Heroman overall was actually quite nice: a good blend of shounen and light-hearted romance. Not incredibly intense from my view, but an enjoyable watch. Especially at the end.
And b'aw, you're too kind. xD I'd love to help beta it (though I'm sure its flawless and awesome. xD)

I cannot fault that trailer in any way, shape or form. You clearly piss excellence.

Great job!

[AimoAio]

That was gewd, no-VERY gewd, actually no make that EXCELLENT!

Also I was SO convinced that he was a girl until the trailer said "a boy".....

Anyways gudjob.I liked it very muchly.

[Phantasmagoriat]

Pretty solid trailer

As a side note, for something that's supposed to be 720p, I was expecting it to look much better, like at 1:51, so that was a bit of a distraction, but yeah, trailer was good.

No, thank YOU for the lovely comment. : D
ROFL yeah I don't blame you. Even when you watch the TV series he sounds like a girl (which he is voiced by, but y'know. =P)

Thank you. C= And yeah, some of the quality bits were kind of wavering (though I still don't know how the beginning got so pixelated...) but like at that point you mentioned, that was from an OP that I had to crop the subs out of. ^^;; So that's understandable.
Thanks again!
