The very end felt a bit forced and the face shots seemed a bit long.

I'm still here so don't worry.

I will finish the track.

Sorry for not posting here for a while.

Since O4L seems to be pushing for betas on this project, I'm just going to post mine again. It's remained unchanged since October, but as I never got any useful feedback from the first time I put it in the topic, I don't think that's an issue.

"Since O4L seems to be pushing for betas on this project, I'm just going to post mine again"

Making me seem very pushy

Cool I'll take a careful look at it , see if anything is out-of-place.

Ps.
Crap I better start building the ending credit track...
Anyone good at subtitles for the ending?

After reviewing it a few times, I noticed the cutspeed could be a bit faster.
All the big notes got hit and the opening worked really well. But I think the
main bulk of the video needs a little work.

I can probably bang out a .srt file (VobSub doesn't seem to want to cooperate with me right now regarding .ssa files); heck, I've already done that for my own track. My suggestion would be to not hardsub it until the encoding stage so that an alternate (*cough* H.264 *cough*) encode could have them as softsubs instead.

.srt (and .ssa) files are also very simple to hardsub during encoding, considering you can use AviSynth to overlay them onto the video stream.

The only foreseeable problem is the video's framerate. The master wav file in the first post is 24fps, the project specs you set forth call for 23.98fps, and if you're planning on a DVD encode of this thing, it means 23.976fps with a pulldown. I have compensated for 23.976fps on the compressed copies (AC3, MP3, and AAC) I've made from the wav file, so that's not a real problem as long as the video file is made to be 23.976 as well after export (which I can do if I do the encoding). I can time the credits to the 23.976 adjusted wav, so in the end there won't be a real problem, but like I said, that could (would?) pretty much hinge on me doing the final encoding.

Ok well school is over for me, I will have time to start this track, hopefully I will get it done by January if thats the deadline. When do you really want it in?

Hoping for early January but am willing to stretch to mid-Jan.

OK, I've started editing. Right around 7 seconds so far. Beta to come at around 15-20 seconds.
