Re: Free Opinions
I consider THIS to be one of the few videos deserving of a 10 in lip sync. Your video was fairly well in the concept, but the lips didn't hit every syllable and in some cases just missed entire words by a second or two. But it still wasn't bad. It also took a hit because of some minor lip flap. If a video has lip sync in it, usually I take off for lip flap in lip sync, since I consider flip flap in lip sync videos to be fairly confusing. So -2 for the consistantly missed syllables and -1 for the lip flap.thelonesoldier wrote:Ahh, too late to edit, but:
Thanks for your review. I just had a question, you gave it a 7 for lipsynch, but I feel that the lipsynch is completely perfect throughout the whole video... is there any specific part you felt it wasn't?
Oh, and all video opinions are done. I'll open it back up.
I WILL DO 4 MORE OPINIONS POSTED AFTER THIS POST AND NO MORE.

Umm... I think maybe the video wasn't playing correctly on your system then? There is definitely no place in the video where I missed a syllable or missed an entire word by a second or two. Could you give me a time code for it?

Re: Free Opinions
Thanks for the review. I did have some lip-synch in mine, and a lot of what people consider to be lip flap - but that was intentional. The various characters are talking, arguing, fuming as they find out who got what from whom. Maybe just didn't work.
Here is another new one of mine - horror. A ghost story - though I have had some people find it amusing.

Re: Free Opinions
I'm not trying to be rude, but "a few various places thereafter" is not very helpful. I think the video isn't playing correctly on your computer. I match the syllables frame by frame and I didn't miss anything. I've watched it in Premiere, the WMV, and on Youtube, and there is no issue with the lip synch. Maybe try the Youtube version?CodeZTM wrote: The beginning of when the second song starts up and a few various places thereafter.
Incidentally, I had this Hellsing AMV I made commented:
"I was impressed w/ the lip syncing; every single line was done so well, I can't believe it wasn't dubbed!
Okay, the above line sounded like a bit of a joke, but seriously. It was the best lip sync I've seen in any AMV! "

Ok then, here are the areas I thought needed improvement.thelonesoldier wrote:I'm not trying to be rude, but "a few various places thereafter" is not very helpful.

2:08 [And the areas immediately after there]. The areas started with lip sync but abruptly cut off right after a word and missed a part of the word. And I'm watching this on the youtube area.
But seriously, don't be hung up so much on the lip sync. That's not even the biggest issue with the video. Plus, a 7 is pretty high when I review on lip sync. I usually give 5's. Really, the 7 mostly came from the lip flappage and that one area.
EDIT: Ok, I bumped it up to an 8. Perhaps I was a TAD too critical about that one point. So minus one point for the one area and minus one point for the flappage.
Downloading the new batch of videos.

Re: Free Opinions
All right, thanks. I guess that part is sloppy and's too much of a jump from him yelling to him grabbing her.
