CascadaThon 3-FINISHED!!

[CodeZTM]

Well, I don't want to spam up everyone's inboxes repeatedly. So if you'd like to see the full beta of my blue exorcist track & the new lipsync opening and the other changes, just let me know here and I'll shoot it your way..


EDIT: Oh, and I'm doing an effect at :16, which is why it looks a tad plain. XD

Do want!

Sent that and something else your way. :3

XD knew you would use that guy for the lipsync. There's a little issue with his mouth during 'gentlemen' where the masking is a little off, and I think his jaw moves a frame after his mouth closes. There's also a bit of a flash next to what I think is his hand?

x2. You might want to double check this later on.

I like the black fade at 0:09 but I think it starts too early. Same with the scene afterwards of him crying, it starts before she sings "Eyes" so you might want to push that scene back a few frames and make the previous one longer. I'd also make that scene at 0:12 longer so it finishes at the end of "Underneath" and then fade it into the start of his hands bursting into blue flames at "I". Oh and at 0:15 you might want to add a short black flicker or something to go with the beats. But it's really good so far, ME LIKE!

I might also try and do some white flashing (very pale) to add a little more beats after :25 for Kaze.

I also like this idea too.

And btw about the transition between the two tracks....it feels like Tsuna came in a bit too early for the music. It feels like "Cause I'm burning up" should be Rin instead and then Tsuna should come in at that strong beat at 0:30. I dunno, it's just what I kinda noticed after rewatching several times so it might be something to consider.

About the Kanji track....OMG. It's awesome. Never pictured this for that song but it works really well.

Spoiler :

I like the idea of the beat sync at the beginning but I think from 0:14 onwards, you should change it to lyric sync instead. So longer scenes and less hardcuts with blurs just so there's some variety. I love the arcana card spinning at the end, though there's a bit of Kanji lipflap but it's something you can fix easily. ^^

Well, those are the two extra seconds I put in for transition. I was kinda hoping for the same kind of transition (a mask) like Cascadathon 2 between Code and Hagaren's track. That Tsuna suddenly appears in the mask and at the beat, his background appears or something.

But whatever works for the MEP. =3



And yes....Kanji is awesome, Code...

One little nitpick...

Spoiler :

Maybe speed up his thrusts a little more so that it's more on beat...cuz that was so wrong it was right XD

I can try and replicate this. If we don't like it, we just take it out. It's that simple.

Oh, and I'm glad ya'll enjoyed Kanji. I wasn't sure if I'd gone off the edge of absurdity, because I've been a little too close to Saint's Row 3 lately. XD

Will work on it some more shortly. (Got a final to study for tonight, so maybe later in the week?)

[Hagaren Viper]

Oh gosh Code, I looped that far more than should have XDDD

I agree with what Kaz said about the crotch sync, but aside from that I have nothing to add~

[Kazemon15]

Sending the wrong thing in PM, sorry guys.

This is what I get for staying up late every night. Stupid brain does not work.

[AimoAio]

Kaze yours is so awesome! The sync is brilliant.

I like the particle effect you had in the background since it really gives it a nice electric feel. I'm not so sure about the colour though since it's reddish blue and I preferred your track being orangey and warm so maybe you might want to add some colour correction to it. And also the "ahhh" is a bit fast at 0:11, how to say it...more like the flame doesn't reach the end before the scene ends? Otherwise I don't have anything else for you to change, I love it so far!

omg kaze i really love ur beta!! I could not find anything wrong in it, and definitely i go to start to watch KHR today! XD

Yay XDD

Thanks.

You can watch it legally on vizanime.com. Or if you're not a US resident, Crunchyroll.com.

And thanks, Aimo, I'll look into the scene. =3

[CodeZTM]

Hahah. My Blue Exorcist track just got pwned. XD

I agree with Aimo about the blue particle effect. I think a slightly darker color of orange might do it better. You might consider experimenting a bit. But It looks great.

The only other comment I wanted to make is that I'm not fond of the centipede scene. I mean, with all the great fire scenes that Reborn has, I feel like it could easily be trumped. ESPECIALLY in the future arc when you think of all the epic battles (I'm just picturing Tsuna with his defensive and offensive cambio formas with his little sun lion looking fierce. Or perhaps him fighting his sun lion before they got on good terms. But hey, it's your track, and I don't want to seem too pushy. XD

But everything else was faaaaabulous and I have nothing else of value to add.

(Also, can I still comment on the gaga video you sent? Because I loved that sucker so much. ;_____;)

________________

Once I finish my test tomorrow afternoon (which is likely to steal my soul via bendy straw), I'm going to work on the mask between our transition and finish tweaking the Blue Exorcist track. I'll make sure and update it with your latest beta when I send out my new beta.

I'll be honest. This is has got to be one of the more fun MEPs I've worked on this year, and I think it's because of the fantastic mix. So major props TC.
