I'm back, folks! Like really.

I'll add a thorough video description later so let's just say now it's exactly what one could expect from me: a dark storyline, obsessive sync and a whole bunch of outdated effects.

Enjoy it, please.

EDIT: This is what happens when you're too impatient :roll: I did another encode today and managed to fix a small problem with sync by adjusting it by one frame. It actually makes a difference. I already added a download link. EDIT 2: Now on local.

I have to admit, I usually steer clear of AMVs with this particular source, but this one was definitely worthwhile. I like that you established a motif and kept with it but still managed to vary it up enough to keep it interesting. It was very stylish. I can't say I really followed much of what was going on story-wise, but I still enjoyed it.

I liked Vampire Knight, and I must say I've never seen an VK AMV with so much effect-action before. It's busy, but it works :D. I don't really like that type of song, but it worked GREAT with the mood of the anime ^_^.. A lot of a work went into this, so well done~!

That was really cool to watch, you wasn't kidding about obsessive sync either...

sorry I couldn't really get into it D:
Interesting style though, some nice panning. I just couldn't get into it, my eyes were hurting with the over-use of the sync and flashes.

I know. VK is basically the Twilight of the anime realm but I found it suitable for the music :wink: My focus wasn't actually so much on the narrative although there is one beneath all the flashing. It's more of a feel thing. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

This kind of reminds me of the thread with people listing AMV annoyances, one of them being "creating "action" with flashing and effects". A lot of "artificial action" was poured into this but I'm glad it worked. Thanks for the comment :D

Indeed, it's one of my favourites by her as well :3 The world just needs more Ayria AMVs, no?

Obsessive sync is my middle name :ying: Thanks.

Just means I've done my job... Ok, kidding, but thanks for the comment! :D People are quite divided about this so I was expecting critique like this.

Somewhat... orginal? :uhoh:
Brightness of lines could be toned down a little, and some of static masks feel kinda ... weird?
Interesting idea but kinda too... abrupt(?) form for me .
Still better than that MMO.

This is really interesting, somehow I found it disturbing (for my eyes xD)
But you've done a good job!
