No love for asuka.

I'm not generally one for pimping videos, but I think this video got kinda lost in the post-AWA deluge a little so I figured I'd post about it.

Virtua Anime

OK, so it's a difficult video to categorise (if anything it's probably a parody) but I'd like to see it get a nomination for something... It would make the FREAKIN MONTHS I spent making it seem worthwhile :)

I for one think it's a pretty neat video and hasn't been appreciated as much as, say IWIWAL which is funny but really wasn't that hard to make :P (IWIWAL has little hope anyway thanks to dokidoki as usual :P)

So yeah, that's my pimpage. Digital Asuka needs some Virtua lovin :)

If there is a Best lip sync catagory then IWIWAL should win.

Virtua Anime would probally be under Best Parody or Best Technical though there would be a lot of competition in both.

sorry man, gotta give you props for the great CGI, but as an AMV it wasnt that good.

Why must you lie so?

Well, it's true. As entertainment it doesn't match up to many of my other videos.

It all comes down to what you judge as being a good video - entertainment or skill.

That's something I can't answer except to say that it's generally a bit of both.

Well, personally I was figuring this was a complete shoe-in for Best Original Concept. That's where the video really shines. I mean yeah the technical aspect is neat, but what left me smiling and clapping at the end was the whole concept of the video. It was "absolute"ly top-notch!! Gets my nom + vote easily.
