Don't Mess With Fairy Tail! (First vid in 7 years!)

Post by Gene Starwind 21122 » Sun May 04, 2014 11:04 am

Hey guys it's Gene. It's been a long time. I finally got back into editing just a few months ago. I've been busy running contest and trying to get my life in order. It is great to be back. I'm looking forward to sharing more AMV's with you guys and giving feedback on videos.

This video took 2 months like I said, about 60 hours of editing and I had help from Glory Questor in encoding this video. This was a ton of fun to work on. Even after editing day after day I still love the song, normally you get sick of a song after a while. Anyways I hope you guys enjoy my newest AMV. Looking forward to your feedback.

It's time to turn it up!

The line error that was in the video in the middle of the screen during some of the shots have been fixed, after 15 hours of re-editing. I wanted to fix any visual issues so that way it can be viewed clearly.

Overall, I'd say this was a nice, solid action video, but only in particular parts. When you were focusing only on raw internal and external sync, I thought the video worked quiet nicely. However, I didn't think any of the overlays you used worked particularly well, as they were pretty jarring, mostly due to the fact that you often ended them with a hard cut, without changing the scene underneath it. Also, there were a number of points where you broke flow quite noticeably. But, like I said, when you were just focusing on raw internal and external sync, it worked pretty well for the most part. My main advice would be to work on establishing a greater sense of flow in your videos in the future.

Thanks for the feedback. In some cases with the overlapping scenes you had background vocals going at the same time. So not only I was trying to time the main lyrics, the beat sync, but also the back ups to give it more of a dynamic feel. I guess that's what I'm looking for. Anyways thanks about the comment on the internal and external sync that is something I truely strive on.

Any feedback I can get will greatly help. I'm glad you thought that this was a solid action video.

Awesome video, man. :up: I agree with MouseBollocks about the the parts where the flow gets broken but it didn't bother me too much. Anyways, It's good to see you back in the game. Makes me want to give it another try.

@TritioAFB - Yeah man thanks for the feedback.

@Fuze - Thanks a lot. I probably will look at the video a few months from now, like most editors do and say yeah that could have been better. I am looking to improve on my next amv, got get the rust shaken off first. It feels great to be back. I hope you do give it another try. Your videos were amazing and I really enjoyed watching them. You should join up with me and this other 2 editors I have in my studios, we would make an awesome team. (Can't mention their names yet as I want to make sure it is okay to announce it.)
