Very good for a first video.

Usually, I don't see as much sync as you put into this video in other people's first videos.

The flow/mood and pacing of the video left something to be desired, but that's something you'll learn as you continue to make videos. The general advice I give for pacing is this:
-Exaggerate the differences in the pace of the music. If the song slows down, use fewer clips, and have less motion in the clips. If the song speeds up, use more clips, and have more motion in the clips.

First time seeing Kariudo comment on first time video that doesn't involve how to use the vidid function x) After watching the video, I can see why. Definitely can't wait to see more of your AMVs :P

One thing that bugged me was the lip-flap in certain parts. Like, its usually easy to fix with masking and a still frame plus some motion of the ocean. Another thing too is learn to compress your AMVs so that they'll be nearly in full quality and won't take up so much space. I don't know, maybe you did and 1080p is just that large compressed, but I've never exported in 1080p and compressed it before so I wouldn't know.

Good parts, as said, FX is awesome and integrated well, focus of the story was spot on, could've dramatized certain elements a bit more in the song like when the beats were hitting faster and faster in the middle of the song (Not sure, I'm guessing at the moment), but, mainly, fun to watch. I enjoyed it fully |:>

Thank you. At the moment this is my first and only AMV.
I have not used the Lip-sync(to fix the lip) for this video, because at the time of making of this video, I did not know what it is. XD
This AMV was created a year ago.
I'm glad you liked it.

Fuck being good for a first video, this is good, period. You definitely need to keep at it, you're a natural.
