Yeah, I got curious because it's Ghostbusters ;P
But to be honest, I just couldn't get into this one. I did like that little bit of lip-sync, and the slapstick between the red-haired guy and the bald guy was cute. I'm just not familiar at all with Final Fantasy, so this kind of video is probably more appreciated by the fans, or at least, people who know what's going on.
Either way, I thought those magazine scans were awesome - it's too bad I didn't get the jokes ^^;

This reminded me of Vlad's Navy video.
For the most part, I agree with TJ re: the effectless scenes lacking *unf*, most notably the "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!". On the other hand, those WITH effects were pretty dang fun. 2:30-2:37 was my favorite part, because it really reminded me of another Ghostbusters vid's scene near that part, but with a completely different source, which is pretty cool.
Final thought: maybe I'll end up watching AC in the near future. Renji & Buddy look like fun guys. :]

This was all professional software, in fact I used several types of software most people wouldn't have access to/know how to exploit specifically because I wanted everything to be as clean as possible. All the text, 100% of it, whether it was in the tabloids or the news cast or the red text, was originally 100% vector - I didn't let Photoshop even TOUCH any of it, aside from converting my ...wait, that's getting way too into it. Let's just say that 98% of all the graphics were not in any way made in Photoshop. No way.CodeChrono wrote: Oh, and as for titles...
I was thinking that uncompressed PNG Photoshop files or perhaps a professional title making piece of software would make it unfuzzed. I know my titles I make in Premier Pro don't turn out like that.
That red text was made IN Premiere, which is why I keep saying that its quality was something I questioned myself (right here in these forums) and the verdict was that it came out badly because the color was red. The verdict was that there was nothing I could do to increase its quality. I wasn't happy with that feedback, but I also decided not to change the color.
*shrug* The ugly red text also kind of went along with my general scheme to make certain aspects of this AMV extremely cheesy/just plain subpar. Remember the Ghostbusters TV commercial (the one in the movie?). It was hideous, it was so low-budget and amateur that it was laughable...well, welcome to my red text. There's a fine line between making something bad on purpose and having other people appreciate that it was bad on purpose (rather than interpreting it as just plain bad)...I think it's safe to say that the red text part of this scheme backfired.
