you wont believe the hell I went through to get it to look this nice.. I tried even going for better.. I had to mess with the levels.. sharpness of the image and blend some close to the same colors just to avoid blocky artifacts in darker areas.. I didn't completely vanquish it and it's still slightly noticeable especially if you have a really nice computer monitor like me.. but when I put it on my high def tv with this compression I don't seem to notice the blocky areas at all.

Well hot DAMN was that ever goodlooking! I don't think I've ever wanted the Renewal parts more than this

I hadn't seen the video itself before, and while it was pretty good, I'm not very fond of Prodigy. Or techno for that matter, unless it's interesting techno, but Prodigy always were a bit boring to me =)

Seen this?

thank christ. From the title i thought this was a remake of this video. In which case i would have had to give you severe beatings.

You are forgiven.

I'll get back to commenting on some comments.. but first I'd like to explain something technical about the video. The original video is in 29.970 frames per second and the footage Dj Ohki was editing with was either 23.976 frames per second or 24 frames per second.. I found this out when i was editing because timing was a lot harder to do when I tried editing end of evangelion in 29.970 frames per second and the reason i tried editing at this frame rate is because of the original video is that many frames per second.. but the editor messed up due to editing footage that is in either 23.976 or 24 frames per second while the project settings in the editing program he used was at 29.970 frames per second witch would probably explain all the blending in the original video. if he would of edited and encoded the video in 24 or 23.976 frames per second then there would of probably been a lot less blending in his final encode. Now when I tried editing this video in 24 frames per second having both my project settings and avisynth script settings at 24 frames per second.. most of the footage just fell in place.. this happening made it pretty easy putting things together once i found the scenes I was looking for.. there are only a few places in the video that he either sped up the footage or slowed it down..

So the more technical people could understand more why i converted this video to 24 frames per second, the thing I just explained is the reason why. If I edited 24 frames per second footage with 29.970 second settings in Vegas then there would be a lot of blending or if I tried just changing the eva footage to 29.970 frames per second and go ahead with the editing in 29.970 frames per second.. then the timing would of been a lot harder.. that's why I chose the 24 frames per second route instead. And it was pretty technical editing this 29.970 frames per second video in 24 frames per second and I had to back and forth a lot just to make sure on a lot of things.. I guess I could of just converted the original video to 24 frames a second and then try to work with that but having the audio and video synch the same may have changed so it could of gotten more complicated if I changed it to 24fps.. lately I doubled check how accurate key timing is in the video by putting the original video in virtualdub.. then opening a new window of virtualdub and put the new version in it.. I was able to determine the accuracy on key frames pretty well this way. it was hard to make absolutely sure in Vegas because it was a bit confusing.. but it's great to be able to double check my timing through vdub and I'm glade I don't need to find someone more technical as much anymore to help me find out for sure how accurate the timing was. Anyways thought I should point this out. If you think my method was weird or there could of been a better way of doing this.. please let me know.

In Premiere, I just the framerate to work with at 29.97 NTSC dropped frame. And then, when I got to using my PAL EoE DVD, it knew when to drag frames out

Worked just fine for me.

I had a bit of the same problem with both my remakes, but it worked out in the end. With "Engel", I had to adjust the speed to match exactly. With "Clone Now", I didn't bother.
