Re: [AKROSS Con 2011] Enchanted
So Aimo is back
This will be the longest video I'll review from you. Even when I felt it too long I guess it still has something.
And if I don't have bad memory, I told you that the text in the middle was going to be very helpful, and seems it worked.
Anyway, congrats on getting into the finals. I'll take my time for the Op

Re: [AKROSS Con 2011] Enchanted
Romance AMV of the fucking year right here (well, assuming that Kosmit's flacking video doesn't count).
Extremely gorgeous visual quality combined with fantastic recoloring and subtle effects made it one of (if not THE) prettiest AMVs I've seen.
I'd love to know how you also find the most cutsey fonts this side of the globe. Nice touch on the notes and really added something to the amv at that point.
Great sync/mood and you hit the song dead on the head. What I really liked is how you captured different moods of their relationship. The beginnings, the fears and insecurities and the good moments. But damnit, when, you must remake it and change that last scene!
I still don't like the numbers exchanging scene though. But I'll get over it. One other small thing I noticed is how often this guy smiles with that same dorky smile that makes me want to falcon pawnch him in the gut for being so happy. XD

If this doesn't win best romance at Akross this year, I fucking quit.
You know my thoughts, really neatly edited video. Mood was spot on.
Your best video thus far - no questions asked
Nice work, May.

Re: [AKROSS Con 2011] Enchanted
Thanks Drew. Might I ask which parts you didn't like? I'm wondering if it's the same as the part I don't like myself. XDxDreww wrote:Love the video may. MAtched very well with the anime. So great song choice to match. Editing wise didn't like some parts, but overall it was cute. :3
Grats on making it to the finals.

Aww thank you Boss ;__; You really helped with all the beta-testing, I don't know what I'd do without you.Niwa wrote:One of my favourites from Akross so far, Boss is proud
You mean the credits? Yeah I was getting complaints about them from a friend and after many attempts I kinda gave up and asked him to do them in PS for me so I could import it haha. XDTritioAFB wrote:So Aimo is back

B...But...he's so cute when he smiles like that! D: //sad face. Anyway my favourite font site. Not that I know any other ones. XD I'm also glad you enjoyed the colouring and the details on the note. Damn colouring almost made my laptop explode and the note took me around 2-3 hours to get it looking remotely natural(AND IT WAS ONLY THREE LETTERS!), also thanks for all the beta-advice too! It really helped.CodeZTM wrote:Romance AMV of the fucking year right here (well, assuming that Kosmit's flacking video doesn't count).

Haha I was actually really surprised by all the positive feedback this got on the Akross site(especially when you compare it with *cough*Crush*cough* LOL) since it was pretty lengthy. But I'm glad you enjoyed it Magnus! I hoped the aurora effect I added was kinda like what you were looking for.Magnus wrote:If this doesn't win best romance at Akross this year, I fucking quit.

Re: [AKROSS Con 2011] Enchanted
BAH!! so cute!!! >w<
I think it flowed super well, editing fit and was well done imo!
As for the story, well I've seen the anime, but you still portrayed the story from Shota's side really well~

Yeah, maybe it's because I'm a girl but I find it much cuter when the guy is the one telling the story. XD Thanks! :3Tearx wrote:BAH!! so cute!!! >w<

Re: [AKROSS Con 2011] Enchanted
I really liked this. Not just because I ended up liking the anime much more than I thought I would. It was clear from the very first episode that it was pure fantasy without even a slight hint at realism. They say fantasy is for those escapists who can't handle reality but I think Kimi ni Todoke proves that the reversal is also right: reality is for those who can't handle fantasy.
So yeah my point is that your AMV managed to retain those feelings. It's easy to give all the credit to the anime and the song but to say that would be to discredit your work. It flowed really nicely and I wasn't even bothered by the usual problem I have with AMVs, namely the lack of beat sync proper. This was obviously not something that should have been beat sync oriented so a lot of it was kept at a minimal level, which absolutely worked. My only problem here was that the video lacked continuity. It was basically a collection of cute scenes and faces without anything else to keep them together but the general romantic mood. I know Kimi ni Todoke doesn't offer many visually differing scenes to work with but that's merely an excuse.
Really nice work. I'm saving this
