CascadaThon (Betas Due August 10th)

[LittleAtari]

Hey, I'd like to see it.

I'm super late with updating my anime sources, sorry. If you need my sources for the credits and haven't guessed already, you'd probably best put various.

watch your track and write down the sources.

Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Lamune
Kagirohi
Ashita No Kimi To Au Tame Ni
Zero no tsukaima
Kamisama Kazoku
Chrono Crusade
This Ugly Yet Beautiful World
Gate Keepers
EF - The First Tale
EF - The Latter Tale

Thought that'd probably be too big for credits.

My sincere apologies for the lateness irregardless. No excuse really, I let procrastination get the better of me.

Hey, (I'm assuming you ment today) A really big storm rolled through my area the other day. Nothing happened to me, but earlier today my transformer blew out due to overload, and I've been bumped pretty much to the back of the repairs list since there's power out all over town .

TL;DR, I have no power or internet right now. Some vital functions in my house are being powered by a generator and I'm typing this on a friend's computer. I'm going to try hooking up my comp to the generator (So I can get on AIM) But It's power intensive so I don't know how long I can do it. Keep an eye out for me, but sorry if I'm late or can't make it.

[TwilightChrono]

No problem. I just got one errand to run, and when I get back, I'll be on. I'm on right now, but just because AIM says I'm on doesn't mean I'm at my comp. I'm too lzy to change my status message

Anyway, I'll have something to show you today. Ahhh, hard to believe we are almost done. Does any one else have any new beta's to show?

Perhaps Blabbler's Epic Credits that I've heard so much about? XD

Anyway, If you contact me while I'm gone, I'll message you when I return.

And what the hell does TL;DR mean? I never got that.

TL;DR = Too long ; didn't read


Also, I was informed by cell phone last night that my keyboard has been repaired and will be ready to pick up when I get home from my Arizona vacation next week. =D

Shweet. Well, I just rendered my newest beta. Looks great. Aside from one scene choice that I'm kinda iffy about I think it looks good. Vivaldi, I followed your crit to the letter, and I think the track is better for it. Still, I need you to review it. Hop on AIM asap.

I'll be on for a little while, try and contact me within the next hour.

I've uploaded some new betas to the FTP:
Track 01, Track 05, Track 08, and Track 14 have been uploaded. Please check them out and review. Note that they still have the same file names as the previous betas, but they have been updated.

I think I've talked to you so many times about this track already o_0. The bars in the new beta are too big. Look into placing the bars on important objects so that they arent so random. I think the clip that you had at the end previously was better than the lip sync. Also fix the lip flap where you can.

I didnt upload the betas that you sent me because...well...experimental isnt your thing? I liked the way your Track 10 was done before. While I do agree with Neverend that some of the tracks do need to be speed up, the pace of your track adds more energy to Vivaldi's track, so it works for well for the MEP. As for Track 2, I think your problem really lies in the scene selection. The song has a lot of energy, but the characters have little movement.

LittleAtari
I'm going to take neverend's advice and speed up the track a bit. I'm going to keep the beginning the way it is though and pick things up after that because the song adds another instrument and the track could use a little more energy.

DaikashiSan
He and I have already discussed the AR. He pretty much just allowed premiere to export on default settings. I know for a fact that he has his technicals done in AMVs so no one freak out.

Neverend
Fix the the jagged edges on the floating box and fill in the beginning with footage.

Code
Are you working with the DVDs? I know Loveless has a washed out look but it still looks like it could be scripted better. So next time on msn, we'll have to look into scripting.

I realized that I already have talked to most of you one on one about your tracks so...yea, I dont feel like typing everything out.

If I dont hear back from Loloka soon, I'll have to drop her and see if I can find someone to take that cursed track.

sakuraslight, if I dont see a beta for your Bad Boy track soon, I will have to drop you from that track. When I say soon, I mean by saturday.

Neverend, I know you've been busy, but please give your tracks some attention.

LA, I ripped the footage directly from the DVD's and added minimum filtering. Does it really look that bad?
