Ok to me that is funny because I consider myself a very good speller. Are you just looking for something to bash me on? I mean, it was one word and I spelled it like that on purpose. It's slang. Noob sounds cooler. If you can't understand me, then I think you need more help than I do.
I will defend myself if necessary. Take it as attitude if you want. I'm just really sick of this shit on these boards where everybody nitpicks everyone else for every little thing. Nobody's perfect and there's no point in being mean just for the sake of being mean. If you have issues, take your anger out elsewhere. You shouldn't be concerned about my spelling anyway because I could point out at least 14 grammar/spelling mistakes in your post. But I won't.

My knowledge isnt very expansive yet, but ive been here for more than 2 years and should be able to help somewhat, in terms of editing. All this technical mumbo jumbo drives me bonkers.
I didn't expect an op that fast. I waited a few days. Sorry if I don't know the standard waiting time but it's not like I'm complaining. At least not about my video. If anything, I was complaining about the way noobs are treated here. Yes, they can be ignorant a lot of the time but insults are not necessary (maybe it's tension from all that concentration put into video-making).
Ok now that I've gotten you all pissed off at me, time for the good part!
ifihadaninja wrote:Ok, i just watched it.
It's a standard sappy romance video which i really dont have place much intrest in. It's been done a million times before, so next time you make a video, i suggest better material, we really dont need to see the same thing over and over. As far as editing goes, it's not extraordinarily bad. It has its moments but it could definintely use some work. Ive never edited with video game footage so i dont know how hard it is. The lyrics didnt really match what was going on, though i dont know if you intended it to do just that, or if you just wanted to show how much she loved him, blah blah. I did like the beggining a bit, it was pretty neat how the camera panned around with the guitar in sync.
I appreciate you taking the time to actually critique it. I know my video is not very unique, but it's pretty hard to make such an overused anime stand out. And hey, some people like sappy. At the time I wasn't really looking to create an original piece of art, it was more like a tribute to what I think is the best game ever made.
The lyrics weren't meant to match, although there is one part where Squall crashes into Rinoa while dancing right as the word 'crash' is sung, which I thought was clever (but oh so corny, I know, I know... *blush*). There are also other parts that fit, like the whole being alone thing.

It does drag on a bit doesn't it? That was just my laziness. I kind of want to redo it but I want to make it look better and I'm having problems with the footage compression and such. I don't know if anyone could help me with that or not.
ifihadaninja wrote:If it seems harsh then it probably is. After all this is your first video, and every video needs constructive criticism, no matter what number video it is, nor how good. If thats not the case then the creator wont get anywhere. I do see that you had a slight clue of what you were doing. If you were to spend alot more time on a video, It could simply blow this one out of the water.
I'm actually very flattered you said that because I made this after seeing like, 6 AMVs total. AtomX has the priveledge of being the very first person I ever saw an AMV by!
Now I have a crush... Hehe j/k. He is a god though.

Thanks, your responses definitely helped! And again, I don't want to be negative or offend anyone, but I will defend myself and/or retaliate. I'm usually a good bunny though. ^_^
Aside from that, I really do appreciate all the people who have taken the time to look at my video at all. Thanks.
