Laugh Story: A Head aka This guy actually edits?

I've been lurking around these here forums for more than a year now, criticising the creations of pretty much every AMV maker on the org without ever making anything myself. So, I decided it's high time to get a taste of my own medicine. This is the effect - my first ever full AMV. Let the flaming begin.

First thing first - good job on finishing your first AMV.

About the vid. It's good. Whole story is pretty well told - so people will get the message right I think.

And yes, do not use Vegas Movie Studio

If I could relay anything to you as to advice... It would be to work on flow a bit more, your editing felt a bit sporadic with sync and scenes.
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

Hours were spent on that, better appreciate it.

Anyway, the video... It was really enjoyable, a few rough cuts here and there but it didn't really bother me. Nothing extremely impressing but yeah...

you told the story really well :up: It was really great :ying:
I haven't seen the anime, but if those were indeed effects and not just from the original anime, I thought they helped a lot :D
And this song... :awesome:

Yeah, you're not the first person to tell me that. I was short on footage so that's probably one of the reasons this AMV is lacking in this department. I'll do better next time. Probably.

I tried to make the story as clear as possible, so that's one thing I didn't completely screw up :D And those colors effects were like that in the anime have totally been made by me :wink:

I agree with most of the comments here, this is nothing mindblowing or anything but it's quite enjoyable to watch. The story was obvious even though I hadn't watched the anime, the flow was commendable for a first video and I liked your build-up a lot, it actually got quite intense towards the end.

A very good first overall. :up:
