Age of Man
This is my entry for projectSurge Round 1. It was really fun to do this one. I planned it and did a lot of research before I even start to edit.
I mentioned the help some of you gave me here with some anime suggestions. I'm really grateful for that. In the end I had a lot to choose from
Here's the youtube link
Hope you like it!

Re: Age of Man
Woah... I totally love this video, it has such a great concept and it was made really well.
At the beginning when I heard the song I was scared because I'm using that song for a video too... and well, your video's much better than mine. xD (I didn't know it was one of the projectsurge's songs... Oh well )
This video has such a great message, it's so deep, everybody should watch it...
You know how much important life is only when you face the death.
Great video, really.
I'm gonna leave you an opinion.

Re: Age of Man
Simple but a very powerfull atmosphere and good scene selection.
The only thing i didn't like was the outro, too long.
Still great job

Re: Age of Man
lloyd9988 thank you so much! Oh you mean the font or the actual text? The facts were a real pain to find lol
Kairih, aw I read your opinion! So lovely, you sure gave me a smile I'm sorry that it touched you so much because of sad reasons :/ Oh and I don't think we're in the same group! Though I remember seeing your video for this round and I really liked it
Creed_FR, thank you so much! You're not the first one to point that out and probably not the last one either. To be honest, I take only 50% of the blame, the rest is because of the song that I love so much

Re: Age of Man
I'm mainly a fan of the scene selection, and in conjunction, the atmosphere. It was very well done in that regard, and I have no complaints. The sync was also very nice, and not as boring as I would have expected an amv to be to this song. Also, nice job in choosing which scenes to have voiceovers on-- I really like them, but people often put them in the worst of places.
When it got to 2:39 though, I cringed a little. The concept just got really cliche to me, and some of the statistics I didn't like (particularly the whole "x babies born every second, x babies born every minute." Same thing with the deaths, I don't think it's necessarily to have them both, as they're pretty much the same thing. And the "while 1 scientist is creating a weapon, 1 million moms are baking cakes," that one was just... blech. And while I liked the snow statistic, it seemed really irrelevant to the theme and concept.) It was too obvious to me, and I think it was too black and white and too sudden.
But I like the fact that there was a concept, even if I didn't like the concept that much.
Any amv that at least has a good atmosphere is solid, no matter the editing or concept flaws, in my opinion. Still, my criticism stands. But despite all that, I think it was really good.
