We Are Prodigy - An Evangelion AMV

Post by Kanadajinn » Tue Aug 16, 2016 6:18 pm



This was my second AMV, made in 2014. If I had the original footage for it, I would go back and change a couple things, like the speed of some of the clips, and also the lip syncing.

This is the direct youtube link:

Any Feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

I actually saw this a while ago when I was binging eva amvs, It is very exciting action amv ( I really like the part with gendo in the car at the start). The amv really high lights the action mech part of the show but I wish it has more purpose than being super action pact.

Yeah, it's definitely more in the action and scenes-that-look-cool camp than in the plot and meaning camp. Thanks for the feedback :)

I'd say it's one of the Best Action AMV I've seen and it's Unique and Appealing as well :) Great Work. It's not so often I see such style of amvs.

I really like a lot of this, which must be kind of an achievement because my fondness for Eva videos usually has nothing at all to do with the action scenes in themselves and more to do with exploring characters and the psychological aspects of the story.

Good job building the mood and a sense of anticipation in the early sequences. Good sense of sync throughout most of this.

I like the lip sync parts in theory but in cases like this there's very little room for error and just a little bit of tweaking those sections, tedious as it might be, would go a long way from changing that from the weakest section of the video to one of the best parts. So if you ever do that and decide to upload it here, that would be a good opportunity to polish this into its final form, if you're still up for that. (edit: right in the beginning you mention that you don't have the project file anymore, so ignore everything I just advised)

This was a really good effort and I'm looking forward to watching more from you.

Hi :) Thanks so much for the feedback!

The lip syncing is definitely one of the parts that irks me on re-watch. I would love to go back and fix it, but I don't have the original footage for it anymore. If I'm able to get the dvd again, I might just begin from scratch in order to fix the lip-sync, and a couple other parts I'm not fond of.

Thanks :) The lip syncing is actually the part that bugs me the most. I'd like to tighten it up.
