[LevitatingSkies] All I Need (01/07/2013)

Hey guys ! As you can see i joined the Argen Team IC (my first IC) & created this vid =) , In my opinion the video isn't that perfect so if you guys could judge it & give some basic things that makes my video better i really would appreciate =)



Anime: The Garden Of Words/Kotoha No Niwa (Check it out if you didnt )
Song: (Say) All I Need - One Republic.
Thanks for watching !

I'll tell you my opinion when I wake up

Not bad, when the beat kicks in it gets really good for a few seconds but afterwards it goes back to the way it was before which is not bad but still lacks, your transitions aren't bad but need major improvements, didn't like the circle thing much and a few mask transitions were really bad, you also relied on fades too much, its bad when you do that but atmosphere was fine though but yea like I said not bad.

Okay, to me this video is a little "eh..." and I couldn't really get into it. In the beginning where you changed the color to a type of red at 0:15 that was a big no no since it gave a good look for the first few seconds and when you see this it's like, "wtf?".

You should be careful on how you use the mask like at 0:27 where you have the slow mask where it moves in and used as a transition. It may look cool at first, but if you do too many masks that are slow like this it can really rupture the video.

Next I would like to say for your transitions it didn't really feel right to me. That circle transition really cut me of when I was trying to enjoy it. Next time if you decide to do this effect again, try doing it in a way where it is not as effective. They also became very repetitive throughout the entire video same as the masks.

For effects you seemed to use them at the same place and some of the times you used it you really didn't need it. Try stay away from unnecessary fades because that can really give it a blow especially when you are building up an atmosphere.

For your concept I came to a point that it seemed that you didn't care for this part. In a drama it is best to come up with a concept even though you want a good atmosphere you need to think of concept first meaning you need the right scene selections to make the story stand out and it is always best to come up with an original story.

Overall, it's okay, it gets to a point then messes up. You had some really repetitive things like transitions, masks, and effects. You did a good job in building up the atmosphere, but watch the fades.

So yeah that's all, good luck on your next!  

Thanks guys ! I watched the video myself again & i saw the things you pointed out and there weren't much points where i couldn't disagree xD So i shall come back here in this topic again in 1/2 months & i hope the critize list is a little shorter by that time x) Thanks!

There are a couple of errors like too many meaningless mask and too many camera movements, you had to slide more fluid video. The combination anime / song is spot on but the editing is not the best, good luck for the next AMV

Thankyou , i shall work on it !
