The Blümchen-Nur Geträumt MEP

[CrackTheSky]

I don´t know how it is on a Mac, but are there VDM and avs scripts or MeGUI

Nope, nope aaaaaaand... Nope.

Well...you have to load your file into MeGUI with an AVS script...

Assuming I understood the question, the editing process on a Mac does not involve loading files into MeGUI with an AVS script. It's a whole different beast. It's easier, but unless you're using FCP, you get alot less customization tools.

Well, here's another beta to add to the bunch! Let me know if the colorful border thing is crappy...I wasn't so sure about it.

I think that the border looks pretty nice aeri ^^, also nice beta, mmm when you use the cross effect, it looks a little off, it needs to start a little before. Other than that its good, nice idea of using dancing scenes (I´m doing the same XD).

ok now for my part, well I will post here the beta as soon as I try some things with AE, but I really need to know something from you guys that use AE, does it has an effect to make little thingis of light flashing like every 0,01 secs, I ask this cause I would need that for this part 3:28- till the end, I would try to add that if its possible and then post the beta here.

BTW yeah Kaxi I´m the birthday-boy now since today is my birthday (18th, I´m an old man XD)

[BauziOLD]

Man! Happy birthday ^^

I think that the 1987´s are a majority here in this MEP. Or am I wrong Ben?

Something unhappy to say (*sigh* time to be the bad guy):
As I said, that there isn´t anything else to say to the MEP parts wasn´t true at all. So I have to post critics (and the first one gets heavy):

Greggus... It´s your part I´m completly unpleased. Not only me. Somebody PNed me up if this is should be a joke and it is my job now to say you that. My first impression as well of some of my other friends was: WTF? and they have to do nothing with amvs. In my opinion you have to complety throw it away and make this new. Sry...
Now let´s go threw the timeline:
00-04 I was pleased. The scence was alright. The timing was aswell ok, but maybe needs more fine work. I don´t know
04-17 The missery begins. First of all: The scence pick. The girl on the floor was ok, but the rest not. For example this strange people. What are they doing here? They are completly on the wrong place. The move of the clips looks damn cheap. DAMN.
No love in this effect and in my eyes no use in this form. The black lines moveing sting in my eyes.
15 Do you want to cause a epileptic thing in me? No I´m am a friend of flashy things but that was a completly overdose of flashes. As well as wrong timed to the music.
-23 I think this scences were alright.
23 wtf? Overdose Not so good timed. The scence afterwards was good.
25 Completly bad scence pick

The opinion of the person the wrote me was that you should completly overwork or start the part from the beginning on new. Maybe this is really the right thing to do and the person who wrote me the message is somebody that has my respect for his work and so on. So... the person isn´t just somebody, but someone that knows what he/she is talking about and no it wasn´t somebody of the team or scott. Just somebody outstanding.

Ok Danielle:
I don´t like the smile of Haruki at the beginning =P No really don´t. It looks dumbass. ...standard zoom out fades synced to the music? Can it be also maybe something more original (it works, but mor original would be fine)?
Once again: TOO much flashy at 12. It is no good too agressive for something that isn´t so strong in the song to hear out (that´ what I think).
23 - Here do the zoom out effects a fine thing
26 - Why is it so long white for no real reasson? Please change...

Overall we have to set a higher bar. We can do better, I know it so let´s do it and make this amv kick all asses of the world!

[CrackTheSky]

Ok, here's my beta (sorry for the size, and it IS encoded in WMV [I think :/ ], even though it's in .avi format). The only thing I think I may change for the final (Lagarith-encoded ) version is the first scene. I masked for four damn hours straight on the portion from 0:09-0:17 >_< That I will not change; sorry if it sounds like I'm being a stubborn asshole, but I think it works and I worked way too hard on it. Hope everything else works; any other suggestions for small changes are appreciated, but I think I'm pretty much done with this.

Finally ^_^

Man! Happy birthday ^^

Yeah...I'm from good ol' 1988.

Sorry Bauzi, but I disagree with pretty much every criticism here, except for the part at 0:26; however, I don't think even 0:26 is too much of a problem since that'll be a transition anyway.

[omegaevolution]

Thanks Bauzi ^^

but I really need to know something from you guys that use AE, does it has an effect to make little thingis of light flashing like every 0,01 secs, I ask this cause I would need that for this part 3:28- till the end?

no one answered my question >.>, does anyone here use AE?.

Anyway, WOW Bauzi, that were some harsh critiqs back there, now I´m afraid to post my beta XD j/k j/k. But you do have a point in that we have to make this AMV kick everyone is asses

though my segement is hyperactive, OMG this 2 girls are too much happy for me O_O, where is the action, I want action >.>, but yeah this is happiness in extreme (sorry I´m talking to myself XD)

oh... almost forgot Sky is beta, nice one man, you really improved a lot in the part of 0:09-0:16, nice work, though I still think that your "woo-hoo"s need more better synch, they start too late (specially in the begining), other than that, nice work. BTW how did you made that border? O.o XD

[Aerialesque]

1. from 0:13 till 0:20, where the music speeds up, you should add some new layers to sync with the fast beats of the song (or flashes, some effects etc)
2.if the pixelation won't dissapeare, it might be better if you send it in 640x432, because it might be the final aspect ratio, we will see how the other segments turn out.

Got it. ^^ I'll work on that segment some more, and see what I can do to sync to those beats. And I'll try to get rid of that pixelation as well.

The color border rocks, and I'm glad you took my suggestion of adding some pizzaz to heart

Thanks, Greg. Glad you like the changes.

Nice aeri, i like it but my beef is at :03, for that blizzard scene i think u should synch to each syllable, even if it's just a over lay

Ah, okay, I see what you're saying. That part doesn't really bother me, but I'm willing to work with it some more.

when you use the cross effect, it looks a little off, it needs to start a little before.

Er...I'm not sure which part you're talking about. -feels dumb-

Oh, and Happy Birthday! ^^

Aw...I like the pulsing parts. They may be a little unoriginal, but since when is originality my forte? I don't really understand how the part at 0:12 is too flashy, either...the sounds that the flashing/blinking is synched to are pretty evident to me, so I have to disagree with you there...

As for 0:26...heh. I kinda just let the scene play for some extra time there and I didn't bother fixing it up because it's just going to be part of the transition to the next segment. I can change that part though. ^^

Thanks for the critique, Bauzi, I just don't think I want to change those flashing and pulsing parts...unless someone can really convince me to change them, I think I'm going to leave them the way they are.

And, Ben, your new beta looks awesome. Nice work with the effects (I think the masking works). ^^ I think the transitioning into the closing door at 0:28 could be smoother, but that's probably almost too minor to mention. Oh, and I like the colorful border. *.*

Thanks , oh my bad I was meaning the cross effect (pulse, whatever you want to call it) from 0:08-0:10, I don´t say I don´t like it, in fact I love that effect XD, but yeah it starts a little after the beat

Ohhh, okay. I'll try to fix up the timing there. Thanks, Omega.
