[riccardocasu] - No reason

Post by riccardocasu » Thu Jan 28, 2010 8:03 am

With this amv i've tried to get something across following the lyrics: the uselessness of the war and the suffering that it causes (from this the title "No reason"). I'ven't used big effects, only fade-outs, camera movements, blurs, noises and some color corrections. The only one "elaborate" thing is the heart created by After Effects that you can see at the 45 second.

I edited this amv for the first round of italian contest. The first round rules was simple. You had to follow from one sentence given by judges. I've chosen this winning the 1st place.
"All the war-propaganda, all the screaming and lies and hatred, comes invariably from people who are not fighting." (George Orwell)

You are improving, Ricky :O good work this, I like it, but towards the end though it loses a bit of dynamic. The rest is nice :up:

Pretty good, mate. You answered the theme quite well, no wonder you've won. The theme itself is rather interesting.
From the defects I could indicate that you centered a bit too much on the character and that's not suggestible, since you are making a project on some theme overall. Also titles were very poorly executed, sorry. The music that fades in and out in just 5 seconds? Not really good... Well, not a big deal...
What I liked was the choice of anime. You've chosen wisely, since this anime quite much shares the same theme. As much as I know... Film Grain? Why not? it's a WWII, right? I also liked how you showed some scenes of peace before going into violent. This created some nice contrast. Overall: good job! :mrgreen:
