"19-001-The Subtle Art of Shitposting AMVs to AWA's Pro Contest-Pop Team Epic-Ylvis-You're Fucked.mp4""
Very appropriate for being the first video of the contest. I prefer it when comedy videos have more than just the initial joke, but at least this one is under 2 minutes and doesn't overstay it's welcome too much."
"19-029-Heard It Through the GrapeVINE-Vine Videos-My Chemical Romance-Na Na Na.mp4""
I hate memes, and so this video made me upset due to the fact that it was actually pretty creative and that I couldn't dislike it. The part where you started showing memes through the ages is what really sold me on it."
"19-039-Up in Smoke-Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai-NF-If You Want Love.mp4""
It actually took me a while to realize that your backgrounds were live action. I think that's a pretty interesting idea, and I've never seen it done before in a manga video. I think you could double down on that concept a bit more and add in even more live action scenery instead of having so many scenes with just completely black backgrounds."
"19-040-Battle of Tsunshima-Kaguya-sama Love Is War-ONE OK ROCK-Bedroom.mp4""
Your audio volume is way too low, and that may be the thing that's preventing me from really getting into the video. But your source pairing is perfect, and your editing was pretty close to perfect as well."
"19-043-Araki's Bizarre Fetish-JoJo's Bizarre Adventure-Ogden Edsl-Dead Puppies.mp4""
The song isn't really funny IMO, and the whole video revolves around a single joke which isn't really that funny either. I guess the pairing does work though."
"19-048-Over the Moon to Gaea-The Vision of Escaflowne-Bear McCreary feat. Raya Yarbrough-The Skye Boat Song (Extended).mp4""
Really good source pairing that does a good job at showcasing the anime. The narration at the beginning was especially good at setting up the show's world. I think that some of your crossfades could be adjusted a bit, but other than that, the editing is pretty solid."
"19-049-The Show Must Go On-various-The Greatest Showman Ensemble-From Now On.mp4""
How dare you combine my love for Disney with my love for “The Greatest Showman”! The moment you switched to animated scenes, I feel completely in love with this video. The pairing and concept is terrific, and the quote at the end was the perfect cherry on top. I'm literally heading out to Disney World tomorrow, so I really appreciated this video"
"19-055-Forest Fires-The Prophet-Lauren Aquilina-Forest Fires.mp4""
Although your song choice and editing did a good job at presenting the emotions of your footage, I don't feel that the lyrics really convey what's happening on screen. And since I don't have any knowledge on your video source, I wasn't able to get the context of anything that was happening."
"19-064-Shows What I Know-Fastest Finger First-The Chemical Brothers-Galvanize.mp4""
Interesting pairing, but I feel that you should have cut your song at a few places in order to have your best animated scenes closer together and maintain the pace a bit more."
"19-065-S E A R C H I N G-Death Parade-NF-The Search.mp4""
The editing was pretty good, but I do feel that you missed a lot of opportunities for stronger lyric sync, and relied a bit too much on the mood of the song. For example: Not showing the woman getting punched in the face on the “crack your nose"", line, not showing her put on makeup for the “I put on my makeup” line."
"19-066-Exposure-Speed Grapher-Tommee Profitt-Cruel World.mp4""
Good pairing, but I feel that you used the circle effect too much. Also, I think that you could have adjusted the color levels of your footage a bit so that it doesn't look so washed out."
"19-068-Entomophile-Pokemon-Weezer-All My Friends Are Insects.mp4""
Perfect pairing and scene selection. Also very short and sweet. Great job!"
"19-070-Super Models-various-Lady Gaga-Fashion.mp4""
Interesting concept, but it overstays it's welcome a bit. I think that you could have cut you song by a minute in order to just use your best scenes and focus more on match cuts. Also, I wasn't a fan of the vocals."
"19-071-Anamnesis-Warframe-Really Slow Motion-Antiproton.mp4""
You didn't really show any establishing shots in your video, and so I don't really have any context or understanding for anything that's happening."
"19-073-Everybody Knows that the Good Guys Lost-various-Sigrid-Everybody Knows.mpg""
Besides from the “good guys lost” line, most of your scene selection felt like a bit of a stretch and didn't really fit the context of the scene and lyric. Also, your footage looked stretched as well, and so I think that you may have rendered this out in the wrong aspect ratio in instead of cinematic widescreen."
"19-074-What Do I Stand For-Into the Spiderverse-FUN-Some Nights.mpg""
The source paring is a little weak, and your footage is really limited, so I think that you should have cut your song once or twice to help ease that. I also feel that you missed your opportunity to show Uncle Aaron dying on the “I looked into my Nephew's eyes” line."
"19-077-Ultimatum-Doukyuusei-James Snyder & Matt Doyle-Bare A Pop Opera.mp4""
I don't really feel that your grain and TV sim effects were necessary for most parts. I think that taking them out completely would have made the footage more interesting and enjoyable to watch."
"19-079-Far From Any Road-Death Note-The Handsome Family-Far From Any Road.mp4""
Although Death Note does capture the creepiness of the song, I'm not sure it was the most interesting pick for it."
"19-086-Breakdown-Your Name-Vanessa Carlton-A Thousand Miles.mp4""
Surprisingly perfect pairing, and it's really nice to see a video edited to this song in 2019. You editing was also amazing from start to finish. 10/10"
"19-087-We Are Soldiers-various-Otherwise-Soldiers.mp4""
Good pairing and good editing. I think the video does exactly what it needs to do."
"19-089-Kill Your Idols-One Punch Man-BTS-Boy Meets Evil.mp4""
I think that you should have spent more time in the beginning establishing Garou and giving context to the preceding fights. Without the establishing shots, the video doesn't have a lot of context and just feels like random fights strung together."
"19-096-Rise of the Sith Lord-Star Wars-Greg Dombrowski-Stronger Than Fate.mp4""
I think that you should have limited the movies used in your video in order to keep the narrative more focused. A lot of the vocals felt unrelated to Vader's overarching story."
"19-097-A Big Dead-Terra Formars-The Greatest Showman Cast-This Is Me.mp4""
While the original actually worked as a full length vid, this one feels better suited as a AMV Hell type clip."
"19-098-My Zero 2D Wairfu-Darling in the FranXX-Philip Labes-Ignore Anything.mp4""
Not really sure why you choose Darling in the Franx for this pairing and not Mirai Nikki or Another. This pairing feels way too forced to work."
"19-099-With a Spring in my Step-After the Rain-Mindy Gledhill-Pocketful of Poetry.mp4""
Although I think that your pairing works, half of the video feels like the scenes are conveying the opposite sentiment of what's on screen."
"19-100-The Wavering Heart of the Unwavering Girl-Kamisama Kiss-P!nk-F__kin Perfect.mp4""
I found it really hard to follow along with your video for a number of reasons. The beginning of your video doesn't really set up the supernatural world of your anime, and so when monsters came into the picture, it was a pretty big whiplash and distracted me from the narrative"
"19-103-Hysteria-Fate Series-AuRa-Panic Room.mp4""
Flawless editing from start to finish. I would have loved to see more of a character profile type vid with this, but your AMV works perfectly as a visual and mood piece."
"19-104-Trinity of Hearts-Kingdom Hearts-Amaranthe-Trinity.mp4""
lol. I see what you did there with this pairing. I didn't really get into this video, but the editing was pretty solid. One one hand, I think that you could have added a bit more a narrative to your video, but on the other hand, I'm glad that this didn't have any KH3 spoilers in it."
"19-105-Cemetery State of Mind-Fate stay night-Parkway Drive-Cemetery Bloom.mp4""
The video doesn't really set up any kind of narrative or context for anything that happens. Although I think that the song is a good fit, the scene selection feels pretty inconsequential."
"19-106-Slay Your Demons-Demon Slayer-Icon For Hire-Demons.mp4""
Due to how fast the song picks up, I think you would have been better off just jumping into the action and setting up Tanjiro's backstory later as a flashback (instead of editing it at such a fast segment of the song). The fight scenes and especially the last chorus was edited pretty well. You audio cut didn't go unnoticed though."
"19-108-The Truth About Eggplants-Umaru-chan-George Carlin-George Carlin.mp4""
meh"
"19-109-Inner Dialogue-My Love Story-First Date cast-Allison's Theme no1.mp4""
Not really sure why you picked this anime for this pairing"
"19-110-various-Macklemore-Can't Hold Us.mp4""
I feel like you needed to focus harder on highlighting the struggles of the girls and less on them dancing."
"19-112-Not Great Not Terribyl-Chernobyl-Elton Britt-Uranium Fever.mp4""
Good pairing but feels longer than it needs to be"
"19-118-Everybody Wants to Rule the Digital World-various Digimon-Tears for Fears-Tears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World.mp4""
I'm upset that you didn't put guilmon and takato for the “its my own design” line. And I don't really feel that your song captures the core sentiments of the Digimon series."
"19-119-Sad Piece-One Piece-Seth Bowser-Come Sail Away.mp4""
This has pretty good editing and a nice focus on Lufy's Crew. Also, great pairing"
"19-120-Braid Girl Cry Cat Pics-Variousmonogatari-Marianas Trench-Death of Me.mp4""
Very good flow and scene selection throughout the video. I noticed a few minor editing missteps here and there, but overall very solid."
"19-121-Kaguya's Rap-Kaguya-sama Love is War-The Lonely Island-Natalie's Rap.mp4""
I don't really feel like this was a strong pairing. Since Kaguya has the image of a pretty reserved and composed character, I had a bit of disconnect while watching your AMV"
"19-123-One Trick Pony 4 A Canonical Fart-Your Lie in Aprl-Gas X-Thin Strips Commercial.mp4""
meh"
"19-124-The Star Compass-Made in Abyss-The Golden Compass-Trailer.mp4""
The source pairing feels a bit weak and only barely fits. Also, you should use a more stylized font for trailers IMO."
"19-127-The Way We Fell-Toradora-Marianas Trench-Only the Lonely Survive.mp4""
Pretty solid editing, good pairing and easy to get in to. Nice Job"
"19-130-Shack Up-Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid-Ben Platt-Share Your Address.mp4""
Really Sweet combo. Could use some cleaner transitions, but it worked pretty well overall."
"19-131-Phase 2-Invader Zim Enter the Florpus-Sick Puppies-Going Down.mp4""
I'd love to see a full length video with this, but the ending was pretty great"
"19-132-daughter_mother_hopper-Stranger Things-Journey-Faithfully.mp4""
Although the song works for any tribute, it didn't really strike me as something specific to Hopper"
"19-133-L_histoire homosexuelle d_Homura-Puella Magi Madoka Magica-Flight of the Conchords-Rambling Through the Avenues of Time.mp4""
I think the inclusion of Kyubey could be switched to cuts instead of overlays, but this got multiple laughs out of me, so I guess it worked
"
"19-134-When She Loved Me-I Want To Eat Your Pancreas-Sarah McLachlan-When She Loved Me.mp4""
I think that the male cover of this song by Caleb Hyles would have been great to use and would have helped ease the disconnect that I had with the video being from the guy's perspective."
"19-135-Lock and Key-Kaguya-sama Love is War-Sia, Diplo & Labrinth-Genius.mp4""
Although it does fit, the pairing feels a little weak and one note due to how repetitive the song is."
"19-136-A Place to Belong-Angel Beats-Thriving Ivory-Angels on the Moon.mp4""
Although the song has the sentiments of Angel Beats, your narrative gets really confusing whenever you showed fighting scenes in between character development segments. And so I'm sure that someone unfamiliar with the show would be very confused"
"19-137-SIB INTERDIMENSIONAL-Spiderman Into The Spider-Verse-Men In Black International-Trailer.mp4""
IMO, this pairing is a really big stretch and doesn't really fit at all"
"19-138-Craven Hill-The Ghost & Mr Chicken-Crimson Peak-Trailer.mp4""
This trailer has a pretty big disconnect since there are so many instances where a female voice is portrayed as coming from a male character. Also, the lack of lip sync makes even the other character assignments feel a little weak. The mood is definitely on point though."
"19-139-Origami Bones-Kubo and the Two Strings-Of Monsters and Men-Your Bones.mp4""
I wish you had showed more of the plot of Kubo and portrayed a stronger narrative."
"19-140-Unfortunate-My Hero Academia-Chase Holfelder-Fortunate Son.mp4""
The focus of your video is a little confusing at points, and it's unclear who's really being talked about"
"19-141-Desired Hues-Tamako Market, Tamako Love Story-of Monsters and Men-Hunger.mp4""
Good pairing , flow and editing, but I'm not sure I get the ending. And I feel that you really overused light leaks in this."
"19-144-Revolutionized-Revolutionary Girl Utena-Mother Mother-Oh Ana.mp4""
I don't really get the song, but the editing was pretty solid."
"19-145-Thor Lebowski - The Dude-Endgame Infinity War-Johnny Cash-Hurt.mp4""
I kinda have a hard time taking anything with this song seriously, but in terms of Wolverine trailer parodies, I guess this fits. I think that you could have used a few more scenes of depressed Thor though"
"19-146-Grenadine-The Night Is Short Walk on Girl-I DON'T KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME-Do It All The Time.mp4""
Your sources work well together, and and the aesthetic of the anime really fit the tone of the song. Editing was also pretty solid."
"19-147-Poppycockers-Kaguya-sama Love is War-Fall Out Boy-Irresistible.mp4""
Overall the editing and pairing was pretty good, but the inclusion of Free and the audio cut felt a bit cheap and lazy"
"19-148-In The End-Dragon Ball Super Broley movie-Linkin Park-In The End.mp4""
A bit too unoriginal and lazily edited IMO"
"19-149-Madness-Hannibal-ZhayTee-Absconditus.mp4""
I'm not really a fan of these types of videos due to the instrumental music not really adding anything to the source besides just being a backdrop. So it ends up just feeling like a series recap."
"19-150-Marvelous World-The Marvelous Ms Maisel-Jodi Benson-Part of Your World.mp4""
I can't really get over the disconnect of your source not having anything to do with the little mermaid or water in general"
"19-152-Heavens Feel-Fate Stay Night-Within Temptation-What Have I done.mp4""
The pairing is a bit too generic, and a lot of your scenes are either too short, too long, or repeated."
"19-153-I'm Sorry I'm Needy-Future Diary-Ariana Grande-Needy.mp4""
A little disappointed that the video didn't have a even darker turn and bigger payoff"
"19-154-Undertow-From The New World-Third Eye Blind-Narcolepsy.mp4""
Although the editing is really good, the characters don't really feel like they have a strong attachment to the sentiments of the song."
"19-155-The Tin Man's Journey-Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood-Imagine Dragons-Amsterdam.mp4""
Nice character profile with good mood and editing."
"19-156-nineteen eighty - angst-Akira-Rich Brian-Dat $tick.mp4""
Pairing works pretty well, but it didn't really interest me that much"
"19-157-PSYCHO-Mob Psycho 100-JOKER-Trailer.mp4""
Surprisingly good and interesting combo, but I feel that there were a few lines of dialogue that got in the way of my suspension of disbelief. If you remove them and the laughing scenes, I feel that the video would be a lot more believable."
"19-158-Burden of the Shield-The Rising of the Shield Hero-Katie Garfield-Gallows.mp4""
really great editing, flow and mood."
"19-159-My Treasure-Made In Abyss-Mimi Olesen-Lucky Charm.mp4""
The song didn't really add much to the anime IMO, and so it felt like just a recap of the episode."
"19-160-Chika Wants To Dance-Kaguya Sama Love Is War-Rick Astley-Never Gonna Give You Up.mp4""
meh"
"19-161-SarazanByeByeBye-Sarazanmai-N_Sync-Bye Bye Bye.mp4""
really good combo, but I feel that you should have added in the frogs to help ease your lack of footage."
"19-164-Just Love-Garden of Words-Cash Cash-Call You.mp4""
you didn't really have enough footage to keep up with the pace of your song, and the pairing doesn't really feel that strong either since they don't ever actually call each other"
"19-165-The Voltron Brigade-Voltron-TWRP-Starlight Brigade.mp4""
I think that the pairing works, but Danny Sexbang is always really hard to understand in his songs. Also, the song didn't feel very personal to the
characters, and so it kinda felt like background music at times."
"19-166-Like Sheep-The Promised Neverland-A Perfect Circle-Pet.mp4""
The song doesn't really match the tone of the footage that you used, and so there was pretty big disconnect throughout your video."
"19-168-Sisyphus-The Sky Crawlers-Andrew Bird-Sisyphus.mp4""
Good pairing, and nice flow throughout the video"
"19-169-Dopamine-Happy Sugar Life-OK Go-Obsession.mp4""
overall good mood, but I think that the story progression starts to stumble a bit towards the end"
"19-173-2 Bros-various-Rick & Morty-Two Brothers Trailer.mp4""
the scene selection was pretty good and funny"
"19-174-Eternal Family-Kimetsu no Yaiba-Of Monsters and Men-King and Lionheart.mp4""
I think that some of your mask transitions could be tweaked a bit, but you did a good job at conveying the sentiments of the show, and the ending segment was really strong"
"19-177-Shady Gains-Kimetsu no Yaiba-Panic at the Disco-Say Amen.mp4""
I don't really feel like this was a strong pairing, and although the editing wasn't bad, it feels like you put the action scene on auto pilot a bit."
"19-178-Envoy of the End-Code Geass-Rapunzel cast-Ready As I'll Ever Be.mp4""
Although the pairing fits, the song doesn't really provide much context for itself or the anime."
"19-179-Carole's Poppin' Tuesday-Carole and Tuesday-DJ EarWorm-United States of Pop 2009.mp4""
Editing this song with a single source is a interesting decision that I definitely respect, but at the same time I feel that you still needed to do something to match the frequent changes of the song."
"19-182-The Promised Bottom-various-various-various.mp4""
I not really a fan of comedy that uses fake subtitles, so I didn't really find any of your segments funny."
"19-184-Scarlet Crimson Iron Sands-Kamitsu no Yaiba-Svricina-Battlefield.mp4""
really good pairing and great editing. You also did a good job at setting up the motivations of the characters and flowing between their scenes."
"19-193-Macho Hero-My Hero Academia-The Village People-Macho man.mp4""
You rendered your video out in the wrong resolution and caused your footage to be double letterboxed. Also, this video feels like it would have been better suited as a AMV Hell clip"
"19-195-Limbo-Kimi no Na wa-Airports-Limbo.mp4""
Perfect pairing and scene selection. Definately a stand out video to this source. 10/10"
