I have to say.....that ROCKED! nice work, it was very well put together, sound & video quality were good too
hey glad you enjoyed it, and you just reminded me I need to write up the French description.
Falconne wrote:yeah the editing sync. i dont know, it sound so happy and then explosions bodys and other...
humm about the scene selection people dying n stuff to “happy” music, this is in the description ”The idea I had behind this was about how they keep striving for something better, fighting for their ideals to make a better world, "talking just wont bring about change" and they all want the same thing, all have reasons to hate and fight, all have a gundam as a machine/tool and yet all ultimately fail... it's human nature to strive for something better yet time and again we fall to conflict. and our own petty desires.” I hope that helps

here I thought you’d actually hate it (not sure why I thought that) If you’re keeping it be careful not to feed it after midnight ;3
Orooooooooooo wrote:ohhh so thats your plan Danielle. Making me want to rewatch all of SEED and SEED Destiny for the 4th time instead of working on Manifest vid GGGGGG. Anyway 5/5, I'm glad you got rid of the 2 effects which irked me on that last beta. The wallpaper still motion montage thingymabob was awesomecore. Once again, you and Marko have one of the most enjoyable editting styles for me
I have to sabotage amvience entires some how and considering what you’re making this was about all I could do to stop you kicking my ass down there mwahahaha. Yeah I kept getting told my effects were ugly T_T. The wallpaper thing I guess you mean the last chorus build up? Heh that was a bunch of track matte moving vectors(and fake vectors :\) with shine glowing strands and camera movement and 10 hours down the drain on the 2 seconds but it was the easiest of all the ae segments. Anyway thanks for continually pushing me to finish it.

ahh cool, thanks XD
Omikami_Amaterasu wrote:Edit: Hmmm... well I still like it but for some reason the sync doesn't feel as spot on as in the beta... I can tell you inserted a lot of additional shots and overlays into the final version, may be just a little bit too much and it's interrupting the flow (most noticeably around the one minute area)

I still like it enough to give it 5/5 though :p Just personally find the beta version to sync better.

btw you titled it... Freedom Rising? xD may be weird for me to say, but thank you! ^____^ *feels special :p*
yeah I ended up changing the direction I was taking with the video quite a bit from the last beta, specifically in the fight sequences. Hmm I decided to add in a fight with athrun there and I unfortunately resorted to over lays to shorten the footage on the storyline… I was considering making each one a moving track matte as I did later but decided against it only to tray for more of a build up for the second chorus… looks like I prolly should have done it x_x oh well these things happen next time I’ll listen to my inner voice a little more … oh and I literally facpalmed my key board (much to my bosses alarm) when I was typing the description at work and I realised the name similarities. I should take my alzhiemer’s medication more often so the old age memory loss doesn’t hit.
Fizzy1 wrote:I really loved this video! Actually, I don't think you need to have knowledge of Gundam Seed to really enjoy the video. Will leave an op when I get the chance. Excellent work!
ahh well that’s good to hear, my first few beta comments were from people who’d seen the series and had noidea what I was doing in the video… it’s been through a lot of revision since then, but I was trying to capture the essence and feeling of the series which makes much more sense if you’ve seen it, I wasn’t holding out hope that anyone who hadn’t would understand so yay to me for getting at least one :]

Niwwwaaaaa wrote:I like it I felt the maskings was a bit unecessary sometimes.

I have to watch Gundam Seed Destiny soon >.>
would you believe that there is literally only 1 scene with masking? that’s in the lead up to the second chorus with shinn, everything else was done “differently”… I also whored a bit of the intro’s and outro’s which look like there’s more overlays than there is (there are a crap load of track mattes and such which look like masking and some keying)

nZen wrote:really liked the use of effects
really nice amv there
effects vids tend to be either love em or hate em affairs, considering the amount of time the bastids take it’s good to see that most worked.

thanks for the op, heh this is the third time I think I’ve sent you a message by mistake as in I have 4 kevin’s on my contact list, I was sending this to one of my cousins so he could dload this which he’s been buggin me about for months… either way it worked out well that you got it, and now he’s winging that I didn’t link him XD

bauzi wrote:Now... that... was... dissapointing...
Let´s say it was not my cup of tea ok, but the video almost didn´t worked with the song at all in my eyes. Seriously. Way to fast editing that gave me a taste of "whatever" on my tounge. It really didn´t matched for me
I missed energy in scenes and moments, god damn emotions and stuff. There wasn´t any emptions for this really awesome Moby song.
I love this song, but this amv stands way too much under my expectations of a well edited vid to this song. Yeah I can see why others may like, but for me: just no I don´t like it .-.
3.45/5
awww I think the kira background stuff feels a bit rushed to me kinda hard to get what’s happening and this may be a symptom of me cramming to much into the video for you, although I was suffering from a lack of dynamic scenes for internal sync that didn’t include mecha fighting, I tried to put as much story and emotion as possible but oh well.
Zetzu wrote:O: secks
*sigh* if only you had sent me the pics of that before I finished the video, then everyone could see.
Leapoffate wrote:That was pretty damn sexy O:
Needed moar Kira
Good stuff
you know I was suprised about his lack of useful scenes in Destiny I found it hard to find more footage where he wasn’t being a crybaby to put in the second half… it’s very athrun focused x_x anyway glad you liked it.
Arashinome wrote:x2, ontop of that a lot of the masks and effects just felt gaudy and unfitting.
ok I’m pretty sure from that comment that you haven’t seen the series at all amirite? As I said in response to bauzi there’s only 1 actual mask in the video(and a fuck load of keying/mattes). If you mean the pngs that are moving track mattes throughout? There was a lot of me doing that in an effort to match the making/feel of the actual series which uses those “effects” a lot. Although I think that the rolling shine bar is a bit fugly.
MaxBunny wrote:Poetry....
and
Seriously though, good job! I had no idea what was going on, but I found visually appealing (<-is easily amused). I thought the beat was slightly off in a few spots, but that just might be the Windows thing (I am on Vista after all).
I’m adding that poetry to the video description now mwahahaha… ahem well since I watch it heaps I cant see the beats I missed (I’m just too close to it to see problems that others can) so it could be either since it’s a high encode… but it wouldn’t surprise me that in an upbeat sorta song that I missed a few. X_x although actually now that I think about it there are a few at the end of stanza’s where I faded out for more mood and ignored the winding down beats.
DN@ wrote:Very good amv nice editing
I think it’s prolly the best I’ve been able to do to this kind of music, so thanks.

phew that's a good 1 +1/2 hours of work time in replying

Yeah I havn't seen the series. I'm guessing it was the moving pngs that I was talking about rather than "masks" though. They just felt random and out of place to me. If it was the series though that's not your fault.

I'd been wondering what you'd been up to the last few weeks. How many hours did you spend on this?
