AWA 2005 Pro Contest Discussion Thread

Well, I've decided there's not a whole lot of point in delaying my confession. And because I just KNOW that everybody has been driving themselves crazy trying to figure out which video I did (read: sarcasm), I figured what the hell. I'm not going to put it on the Org as of yet. That'll wait until after AWA.

I am responsible for entry #21.

Anime: Laputa: Castle in the Sky
Song: Aqualung - Brighter Than Sunshine

It's weird. Even some people who I knew saw betas for this video didn't even guess mine o_O Heh..

I know you'll make the FF7AC video for next pro.

You'll be back to your old ways.

I've told you before, but I really dug the Laputa vid. One of the few that really does the movie justice, and a great fit. That and the Beyond the Clouds video were hands-down my two favorite romance/sentimental entries.

Vlad

I agree that "Classic Anime" would be a more fitting description for that category.

I can only echo the other comments applauding people's entries. Vlad's captured the Bond style perfectly. I also got pulled into the high energy of #3 in spite of the fan pandering aspect, and I liked how the Wolf's Rain really built up towards the end. AtomX, that Laputa video was just beautiful.

I'd like to know who did the Kare Kano video that my daughter and her friends are raving about. And I'd like Ian to come out of hiding so I can beat him up for making another freaking awesome shiny upbeat video that puts most of the rest of us to shame... and has the Bunny Girl!

From What I know, Ian didn't enter into pro or any of the AWA contests this year.. if so, too bad

He didn't?

I could have sworn I pegged a video that I thought he would make... only to be surprised someone else made it...

That's cool. Wasn't trying to bash you for the character choices you used. I've just sort of noticed certain elements in your works and figured things out.

Believe me, if you've seen my vids, you know how I feel about classic anime. ^^

Excellent work BTW.
