That was rather good, and rather short as well. I could tel right as the video was starting that it would be good. :)

Other than the rather abrupt ending, I liked it. I could learn from stuff like this...

Oh, and nice intro. :)

Note: I disabled the smilies for a reason. I don't like the main smile - it looks half-hearted to me.

Thank you very much for taking the time to watch the vid. I like to try and keep the video short if I'm not telling a story or something. I really don't want to lose the audiences attention or give them a chance to get bord. Which can happen if you drag the video out to far.

I was happy with the way the intro came out, as well as the texturize effect with horizontal flip which makes up the first two scenes in the video :)

Thank again!
Jason

Really, really, really nice video. The flow of the video is outstanding, and the way you matched the vocals, chords, lyrics was really moving. And this is the highest quality AMV I've seen using this series. Really great job. ^_^

not bad at all. I rather liked it

Interestingly I have every still image you used in your masking/overlays on my computer that I sometimes cycle through as desktop wallpaper ;p

Great use of stills in the video, though one problem is that a few of them apeared squished, like you squeezed it to fit more of it on the screen, throwing the aspect ratio off on those particular images. However, the video is well done, and you have a fellow Haibane fan's stamp of aproval ^^

oh yea, sorry for the tripple post, but I forgot to mention something else I didn't like, was the blue and gold color of the lines... (starting at 00:58) to me it kinda threw off the mood. A more subtle color thats not so standoutish in my opinion would have been better... perhaps even just a simple white (or black) line. Nitpicks realy, tis a great video overall.

x_rex30---> Thank You very much:!:

Bakadeshi---> Thank you as well

I went with the blue color for the bars to show a strong separation between the four images but, perhaps adding the outer glow to them was a little much.

As far as some of the stills looking "squished" I set up Premiere to maintain the images aspect ratio. Without that Premiere would just stretch the image to fit and make everybody look fat.

Hey wow!

That was great. A little short but I liked it. Though I have to agree with Jason, those lines were a little annoying. They didnt quite "fit" there with all the rest. I liked it how you put all those overlays and how softly the video went, great job!

I really liked it.
