A Very Cascada Christmas : [Compiling]

[Fay-Sa]

@Code I did what you suggested and the new beta should be up.

@Tritio as Code said its a beta, since I started using Vages I save all my betas as WMV (with Ulead it was always Divx) it just a easy and quick way for me to render betas. As for 'the beginning can be better" all I was told to do was make sure there were at least 3 seconds of a clip at the beginning and at the end for transitions so that what I did. Actually since I've been busy with stuff for ACR I haven't had the chance to see anyone's betas, so I have no idea what yours is like. I'll be sure to watch everyone's after this post but at this point there isn't much I can add.

It's ok. I was thinking in general as the Whole MEP and not only the transition between our segments

Anyway guys I switched two clips around so disregard the last link and watch the new one =)

Fay-Sa: The pacing is quite slow at the beginning but I think that's to do with the lack of scene cuts, which can be fixed easily. Add a black fade out at 0:06. And then move the scene at 0:07 back until she sings "I keep my distance". Then at 0:11 when her eyes open, fade that out to black. Move the scene at 0:12 of her turning round up a few frames so it's synced at "do". Fade out at 0:17. And that should take care of the pacing problem, oh remember to also fade in the next scene for any black fade outs, it keeps it nice and smooth. Also If you have the time to do so, then try and get rid of the lipflap at 0:23 when he bows because we pretty much already know what he'll be saying even without his mouth moving. Otherwise it's pretty sweet.

Edit: I've also made some tiny adjustments to the colouring in mines so now they don't look as pale as before. XD If nobody else has anything for me to change, I'll have the final uploaded by tonight.

Alright, thx for the feedback, im working on the changes of my part at this moment

Final has been posted

[CodeZTM]

@Tritio: Yay! Thank you. :3

@Aimo: Looks good. I'd go for a final now. :3

@Fay-Sa: Give Aimo's thoughts a try and see how it looks. If we don't like it, we can always just go back. After that, I think we can go directly to a final. :3

[Tenshi no Ikari]

Final's up.

Shouldn't be anymore problems.

Let me know if there are.

[CodeZTM]

There is a very noticeable glitch at right before :20, right before :24. These really need to be fixed.


After those, you're good for a final version.

Optionally, I'd still:

1 I still would like the scene at :04 to start at :03 at the word "last".
2) :12-:13 is just a tad fast still. Think we can cut a scene there and try it make it just a tad slower?
3) The scene at :27 lasts just a little long, especially for a frozen frame.

I'm gonna snag this OVA and try and do a quick AMV with it, because it about made me go nuts with my cute senses.

Only just seen this LOL. Well I'm looking forward to seeing it! :3 It's only a 20 minute long OVA that covers the first chapter I think. But the manga is really good so I would recommend that too.

And my final is also up now. It's .mp4 because the lossless file is 300MB and it was estimated at 2 hours for upload so I gave up. .__.
