  • Dear Anon Commentor.. 2007-07-07 01:53:07 To whoever wrote this as a quick comment for my Knights of Fate AMV:

    "spoils the characters"

    Welcome to the world of AMVs. In order to have a decent AMV these days, spoilers are a must, and people don't really know if they ARE spoilers unless otherwise told so. Maybe you should pay attention next time to the anime titles stated in the video, you know, the ones that indicate if an AMV has spoilers,

    GREEN = Safe, relatively spoiler-free
    RED = SPOILERS ABOUND!

    Here's a number for you to call next time:

  • Reawakening of Knights of Fate 2007-04-22 01:26:52 So, earlier today, I removed my Knights of Fate video from AMV.org.

    Took some of the comments made by people to heart and reconsidered the structure of Knights of Fate.

    Before I send it out to various conventions, I've decided to "tune" my AMV according to comments I've heard from viewers. While none of the scenes are changed other than some remastering and tweaks in effects and such, my major change was the ending. From what I've been hearing, it looked tacked on, and went on for 20-25 seconds AFTER the music ends... and the potential for spoilers was rampant.

    While I was content with my 6:30 long project, I thought that the ending wasn't adding much to the video. When you think about it, if you have no music, and just have scenes placed to the end of a video, while meaningful, it won't help the video as a whole.

    So with that, I took time to redo the ending after the final guitar resonance, and have it simply fade from the Fate/Stay Night logo's dissolve to a fade of a sepia image of Saber, and having my trademark "owari" fade in on the left side.

    This made my video end basically when all sound was gone at the 6:10 mark. That cut a very awkward 20 seconds of footage and allowed the video to end with questions as to what happened in the end.

    Upon rethinking this situation, this is how I should had done this ending in the first place. Now, there are no copies of my Sakura-Con version of my video on the org, and only online version is a very poor quality YouTube version. I am actually right now finalizing the upload of my shorter version of my video and it will available in about an hour.
