Re: The Interlude AMV
If you can't accept the fact that some people here will not like your AMV, then you shouldn't post here in the first place. You won't get anywhere if you can't learn to look at all negative and positive comments, whatever you mean by that.
Plus, if you can't figure out how to upload to the site, then ask for help (Site Help at the bottom of the forums). Even though youtube links are now allowed here, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to learn how to upload to the site. You can't keep posting youtube links to your future videos.

Re: The Interlude AMV
Found it pretty boring. Maybe because... it was boring.
Grow up.

Re: The Interlude AMV
Good job on doing almost no editing whatsoever and adding shitty effects to cover that pathetic crap up. 5/5

Re: The Interlude AMV
Well it sucked pretty major dick. The anime scenes you chose to throw in didn't fit one bit with the song besides the scene at the very beginning, and then the frame-blended action scene becomes more obvious and the colorful transparent mask around the video is just completely awful. I'm sure there's a variety of things you could have done to make even that scene fit the song a bit more but in the list of possibilities, those borders would have been among the worst choices. Not to mention they got repetetive after 100 times of flashing in and out - did you just make that "overly complicated circular mask you worked a lot on" (if it wasn't actually a preset), make it swap 2 colors and throw it on 70% of the video just as it was, or what?I only want positive comments towards the amv, negative comments will be ignored
So anyway "what is this frame blending you speak of, youtube ruins my quality so you can't talk about quality blah blah". I'll quote mirkosp once more on that:
I don't even usually whine about frame blending but it makes the video look much more god-awful. Improving the quality is the first step to making something more watchable and making the viewer think you know what you're doing. Hell, at least watchable, because this was frame-blended to the point where it wasn't (which is why I'm pointing something so minor out in such a terrible work of art) and that's all coming from someone who's gotten to the point of degrading quality on purpose.
But hell, why am I bothering with the frame blending.. Moving on, or rather back, to the footage used, because that's the most important part to understand: that footage had absolutely nothing to do with the music. Not to mention of course that it seemed like one episode of the anime series put on the timeline in order, with some crappy sync and some effects thrown over it.
Oh what the shit, why do people keep making such pointless efforts? It's just like the classic naruto vs insert-name-here "amvs" with a fight scene put to some random music, only it's evolved to the point of adding a colorful border around the whole video to make it seem like a dance video. The amount of negative things about this video I could go on about is enormous and you probably won't even care to read, thus I hereby give up on this review and leave with a facepalm.
tl;dr I liked the boobs scene. (to be honest, putting that boobs scene on repeat to this song would turn out MUCH better than this video. I suggest you try it. "The Interlude AMV - An Alternative Viewpoint".)
2/10.

Re: The Interlude AMV
It wasn't quite as terrible as has been suggested, I've definitely seen worse. The effects do tend to get a bit repetitive, making it fairly boring to watch. I think they took more away from the video than they added. Little shakes, flashes, or colors are nice occasionally, but they shouldn't make up the entirety of the video. Especially when they are mostly unsynched (or perhaps Youtube de-synched it). Not a completely bad video, but it needs work. I would suggest setting up a solid base before adding flashes and whatnot. And then, I'd only add them in moderation.
Additionally, uploading is quite easy, and there are many guides on this site explaining it. Try "Site Help" or "Guides" on your Member Main Page. Quite a few people dislike being linked to Youtube to watch an AMV when /this/ site is for AMVs.
And negative criticism will help you improve more than positive. You learn what you need to change or do differently to make your videos better. And saying that you'll ignore it is kind of like saying "Screw you, I'm too good for your opinion."
And it's like sending up a flare asking for negative commenting, as you can see.

OH, you've already done this! See how footage is important? Similar effects, equally bad editing, but the lightly dressed chick can draw attention even from the unnecessary typography.Emotive wrote:tl;dr I liked the boobs scene.
