This feels more like a big joke then anything ells for me.. It's an average video at best with some toss to go effects on it. They do represent the song in a somewhat interesting manner, but we've seen this all before. The bars are meaningless on their own as they don't represent anything about the video aside from wanting to be different too badly. And thus falling short as its trying too hard to be "artsy" and/or "intellectual". If anything if you wanted to push this "cinematic" look, you should have just cropped it rather then forcing people to watch it in 4:3. The main reason I'm saying this is because I for one use 16:9 and 16:10 displays. And thus have to deal with bars around all 4 sides of the video, which gives it an amateurish and far from cinematic feel.

6.2/10

It was funny to edit the video in 640*120. As I never see video with this ratio, I haven't can use my memory to have inspiration. So it was interesting to make it.

I've check this ratio for the ambiance of the video. 16/9 gives a more serious ambiance than 4/3. So I've wanted to try a more panoramic ratio.

Somepeople have understood what is happening, so I've not totally missed the video.

Thanks for your comments.

Aside from that. If you would actually crop the video instead of doing bars it will be better for 16:9 Display users such as me... 4 black bars really destroy the athmosphere you try to build up.

Watching this video is like reading a markov chain story, it's kinda interesting but totally devoid of any real meaning.

Thank you.

Sorry for 16/9 screen users. I've had a indirect link with a cropped version.
