I'm flattered that people (read: SnhKnives) thought I made the GAiNAX video, but:

1) of the sources used, I only have NGE, KKnJ, and FLCL
2) I don't use After Effects
3) I wouldn't have screwed up the aspect ratio on Mahoromatic

Trythil gave several large hints as to which video was mine in the IRC room a few days ago, so I'll say no more about it for now.

I had honestly pegged your sister for that one

Seemed more her style. Did she enter Pro? Either way, damn good video!

Yep, she did enter. We said beforehand already that people would probably think that her vid was mine, and mine hers (she made a drama instead of her usual action this time). I'll let her announce which video she made, but as a hint, her video was one of the finalists.

Hopefully I don't sound dumb but where do we find out who are the finalists?

Not #20, was it? I kept thinking "if that video had been nominated in the drama category, I'd vote for it in an instant"...

Didn't you find out when you voted in the second round of voting?

I knew eveyone would think the action vid was mine.

I actually went the other direction this time and made a drama video: it was the one right after silver_moon's, the Wolf's Rain one (#4).

Those were it? I thought the finalists would be the winner of each category in the 2nd round voting.

Gah! I should've known -_- It has the Sierra Lorna style all over it. But I wasn't thinking like that since I had presumed the video RIGHT BEFORE IT was yours

Good stuff though

One of the better Wolf's Rain videos that I've seen

Castor Troy wrote:Those were it? I thought the finalists would be the winner of each category in the 2nd round voting. Shocked

Well the term finalists usually denote the videos that went into the final round of voting

Yeah, I wish.

I actually know who made it because I beta-tested it, but for now I won't say who. I was very surprised it didn't make the drama category too.
