I really enjoyed this.

ok now that the video is officially posted as contest let me just clarify a few things. first of all I did not make this as a troll, why anyone would think after the amount of years I have participated that I have only the goal of being a troll is honestly ridiculous.

Second, this is basically a finished version of crossing shadows, I was upset that that version did not enter the contest and it was a quick loophole and I do think there is enough differences that it is its own video but the biggest problem with crossing shadows was it was so incomplete they were little areas that had no pictures because I couldn't complete them in the time allowed. (probably the only AMV creator to ever submit a video with dead air) I would even say crushing shadows has bits that were not even intended for that video before a previous drafted video just to fill up space so they would be less dead air.

this video on the other hand has everything intended even though I kept some bits that just worked particularly in the final verse with the gun fight between the two women. (even though that was added actually originally after 24 hours straight working on that video (on my old computer it took 1 minute per edit for me to complete another edit, even if I did a mistake I would still need to wait a complete minute to change anything(looking at a rainbow cursor auto saving)(not every video was this bad but this one was a big one), my new computer has faster ram so it's now more like 30 seconds but something that could have taken 2-4 hours took a lot more) trying to hope it gets hope I was going to get a contest recognition even though it was a few hours too late and I did not) was not originally going to be in the thing at all but worked well enough that I kept it in there but most things got corrected into the intended viewing. I hope this video shows the true nature of my previous video in a way that I can be proud of and I am so happy that it is now a official Big Con entry

you did a very good job combining live action with cartoon. The only thing I wish was there was more movement around the screen rather than most of the characters being centered but other than that amazing.

this is bad. it is lacking any transitions directions fades with technique. has the strangest concept the fields. (aka black bars) there were a few scenes that I got where you were going but too much of this lagged, definitely given the length.

you did a really good job editing this video.

you did a great job getting all of the emotions across.

It's not about the music itself, but about the peculiarities of some scenes.
(know the formatting likely to be incorrect for this quote.)

when I said those words i did not mean I turned it off because the music did not fit the thing. I turned it off after I even really saw 1 scene. I recognise Enya's distinct sound immediately and I was every video that day for the contest and believed this deserved a extra look since as I said below this song is distinctly meaningful on a personal level. (my parents actually used it for a lullaby apparently the story goes when I was a baby. specifically this singer's music) and I need to make sure to balance the biased on that carefully before I put my number in I did not go into detail on that because my comment was all a very long. there is nothing wrong that Anima Purgatorius did when he attributed the quote (and I can see how you got to that conclusion) but I wanna make sure I did not mean that in a way that I do not like the song for the show in general. but like I said I was reviewing every video making sure I did not get penalty points from not giving a vote to a video (if you look at the day of the review you would see how it is the due date of the contest vote.

this video is amazing. I love it so much. The editing is great and spot on.

every scene was done perfectly. perfection.

I am not sure what the other people are speaking to, you did a great job. The only exception is between 17 seconds-23 seconds in which there is to still to fit with the rest of the motion based video. but you did a good job with the erotic theme.

more crossphases and a little too much of an instrumental section, but this is still really well edited. I love how everything was to beat and you did a nice job with the dancing. granted it to distract from the 'love is gone' theme, also portions of the last 15 seconds were not present and it did not seem to be a stylistics choice. (The final lyric should have at least been completed even if you have to take shortcuts due to time for the rest of the final 15 seconds) I still enjoyed this a lot. 4

you did a pretty good job with this.

amazing ,I love it.

ok you did some portions really well and you follow the lyrics. granted there were some transitions that fell flat which would not be noticeable if it was not for the way you were doing the video very fast cut. I also found it weirdly psychedelic. I am fine with the psychedelic genre but this just what is a little too segmented.

for some reason I just keep on the edge of loving it and finding it not good enough. again probably because it was kind of segmented enough that I can like certain aspects of the video but not others because I think it's fair to say they are probably 8 things going on in this video with another 10 minor things going on.(as an only mentioned one) I think the first minute was the issue. also this is one of my favorite so far of a romance video you did the romance well I will give you that though so take that advice as you may. I just wanna be clear a lot of transitions really were messy so do clean that up if you ever do another similar one.

Only a few scenes yet works perfectly.

This is this video (and the redone version) I enjoyed before I even begin editing myself. To give you an idea in one of my early bookmarks on my phone. Great.

You did a decent job, have the same issue with my editing program (mine waiting multiple seconds each edit) but is just so difficult to trade something you know how to use. Everything is as it should be be here though.

Kivlov:

I'd add more footages from "Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri" (especially from the 1st episode).

P.S.: BTW, I've found a secret message between the scenes on 1:04. How to decrypt it?

If you are talking about the stamp, it was a joke for "make it a law." Of course you could have meant other scenes but I feel like there is the name in there with explanationI feel like that is the main idea one that might need explanation.

The beginning minute was slightly not synced but everything else was great. I loved it and it is one of my favourites.

I cannot believe I just watched a video of someone driving a train. I assume this is partially influenced to that 2 train movie Незначительные подробности случайного эпизода but it just was nonsense. I would say the navigation controls were nice looking and I enjoyed the one with the blonde girl and put her head out the window which was beautifully done. granted I had no idea what was going on most of the time and I kind a lowered the green one the grid was just sticking her behind up on the floor in the train. come on, I know you can do better than this.

ok I checked the lyrics and I can see that this is likely heavily based on lyrics which is cool but some concepts just do not have to be done. maybe if it was more stylistically with transitions I could understand but this does not have enough transitions to fit the smooth action oriented little plot video either.

I was gonna give it a 3 but I promoted the score of because of how good you did (though I am not familiar with the series) but the old man in the office which I assume was the father. (I mean it could have been a professor, I hope I am not getting this that off) And how are you invoked emotion in those scenes promoted it to a 4. The biggest problem is the video game portion in the beginning was difficult to attach to the second half of the video.

this is a very social media influenced video. I do not mean like it watches like a TikTok,I mean I got that social media attitude. you got that feeling through it very well and you will go far in that vein. you also did a good job combining the many girl genre with that attitude has been a clever combination.

The ending One and a half minutes was great. problem is it took way too long to pick up and I do not mean a slow first verse, I mean for almost half of the video. it relied too much on someone's hand going to the sky. it is fine to repeat a scene but you made it too much of a focus.

I love this but is there any place to find the lyrics.

I enjoy this, I will say one watching they were a few sloppy bits but it has a lot of promise. I enjoyed the concept just remember that these style videos are very heavily rated on transitions. I wish you the best on your future endeavours.

okhostok:

Well, the track is good, but the structure in this video is weak. The video 80% consists of various facial expressions of characters. It would not have been problem if it had some structure like sad faces in beginning, some action in the middle and happy faces in the end, but everything here is pretty mixed.
Nevertheless, good 80's vibe/aesthetics, interesting track. Good luck.

I do you think the facial expressions were done well in this.

you did a great job combining the character moments of Sailor Moon with the style of the Charmed opening. As cool as it would have been to see some of the other standard scouts I understand the choice you made in choosing only the first three and the Japanese opening did even only had the first three walking in their early openings. (even if the other sailors appeared elsewhere in that opening) Great job.

you did a great job here.

I kind of thought I was going to get included in the contest. they are more specific about deadlines then they used to be.(considering they do not even get a time zone for the main portion, I always stayed in the wheelhouse) but I guess I stretched it A few hours longer than I should have. (there was no time or announcement that the thing closed down when I posted but it is what it is) I just wanna update since I mentioned this in the note and say my father is now back, hopefully he stays healthy.

SWS:

Не зря в данном клипе указана студия Global Shadow Studios. Всё показанное глобально и, по настоящему, тенево! А сцену на 00,45 можно даже ставить в логотип. Надпись на клинке в начальных кадрах, тоже кстати, ничё так. Правда прочитать я её не смог. То ли из за недостатка внимания то ли из за того что выезжает она со стороны отнюдь не способствующей её прочтению. Акын спорный. То что он есть не беда. Но, как я уже и отметил выше, он довольно своеобразный. Например на фразе "Мы оба" показана не пара, а две. Возможно конечно это и параллель на параллельную историю но мои внутренние параллели привели куда то в Швецию. И отнюдь не к шветскому столу а к другой, не менее известной особенности, шветского домоустройства. (Хотя, возможно, я слишком испорчен для разных таких AMV просмотром разных всяких не AMV. Кто знает...) Задумка с крупными планами весьма удачна. И это без шуток. Только, местами, мелькают они очень быстро. Вероятно, если вместо смены сцен, использовать наезд/отъезд камеры то смотрелось бы более выигрышно. В целом песня сильная. Исходники олдскульные. Но приводить в общему знаменателю (16/9 или 4/3 там) все таки желательно. И полосы по краям тоже желательно убирать. Иначе клип смотрится уж больно неопрятным. А в целом. На удивление - понравившаяся работа с кона.

if you meant the green text, I add a source the last second, by that point I already made the credits on PowerPoint and did not want to try and make a photo of the slide since the attempt was to get it in there and maybe still have this count, so I basically just insert it in the program. usually I would move the picture but it was already on the slides so I had to just change the color which is why it is as sloppy as it is. I think what really cost me was that I had to wait 45 seconds for each speed change at the end. this led me to basically not begin versus end until 5 am we are realistically it should have been done by 3 to 4am. I think I improvise pretty well but I have a new version to try out but I wanted to finish this first since there was less than a month left. I think they said they got rid of the autosave wait time so hopefully this makes things better.

terms of the 'both of them', I meant friendship or understanding (with assisting each other overtone) when they are supposed to be(and usually are in the field) against each other. this is just supposed to be the twisted world of broken alliances and forged ones on a business and personal level so they could beat the "the final battle" (with purple hair character) spy thriller style. granted I did try to take this seriously with the more 'gritty' take. (which in this case basically means not placating the effects of war) the biggest issue was things were really crammed by the end. granted everything before the last verse definitely was thought out. (and that scene was the only 'random scene') but I had the delete stuff figured out the only thing is I could not find the spread out computer with a large document scene so I have to be not included. but I cannot remove that for us because it's tied everything together.

I will mention that in terms of the 4.3 weirdly enough that source is newer. I still do not understand why a 2001 source is 16.9 which is the main issue with balancing these out is Noir is 90s/early 2000s animation done in a 2010 ratio. thanks for enjoying my video, I take great appreciation reading your comment.

this is great amazing,you got the mood, everything correct. 5

this is perfect it did not skip a beat, it is purely action and it works somehow. usually all of these elements would seem tacky particularly the talking cat but you got the concept of work which is amazing amazing accomplishment on its own. this one was fun to watch and for that I give you a 5.
