Are they purposeful? Did you mean to do them?
If not, change the aspect ration to 16:9 as well as the render ration to 16:9.
Beautiful use of colors, I had no problem with any color changes you did.
Specifics!!
The barnyard door transition used in the begging feels out of place. I particularly don't use this transition as a true transition but more similar to a gradient. The better use of the barnyard transition is for masked objects such as a door or window or a two of the same scenes, the second one using the transition to change color.
Nebulous transition at ~0:10 is a bit out of place as well. Don't think every transition needs to have an effect! Fades do fine! Especially with a song like this, a .05 fade would be perfect!
The 3D blinds transition that follows again, is out of place... but what shines is the following transition! Not sure which transition it is... but if you fade those in, it would look amazing!
You see that fade you did at ~0:20 and afterwords? PERFECT
The heart crossfade transition was so cheesy. It;s a bit out of place as well, but adds to the cheesyness... and if that was your aim, good job!
At 0:44. the train scene! Colors so beautiful but the lens flare video effect does not work with the train! Keep in mind the lens flare should be used in conjunction with the lighting of the picture, the lens flare is no perpendicular to the train since we are in it's shadow!
0:46-1:17 is perfect! The fades were nice, would have enjoyed seeing typography, but it isn't needed. 1:17, when Sorata facial expression matched the part of the song was great!
1:32.. you slowed the clip down.
You slowed it down too much! This removes all smoothness as all it does is extend how long a frame will last. Extending frame length removes how smooth the clip is. If the clip is too short, avoid slowing it down, figure out if there are other clips you can use together or just an entirely different clip.
THAT GLOW INTENSIFYING AT 1:50
HIGH POINT OF THIS AMV
IT LOOKED AMAZING.
YOU FADED IT DOWN TOO
GREAT JOB
Oh god, more barn door transitions.
My suggestion may have been blurred fades/motion blurs. I can teach you this, it's a bit complicated if you are new to Sony Vegas.
Fade to black
A classic way to end that most people don't do.
Instead we get a whole 2 minute credit screen.
FADE TO BLACKS NEED TO COME BACK.
Great amv for a first one!!
You are ahead of me, I have yet to finish one. Something you may not want to be hearing from someone giving you feedback, but I have edited stuff before!!
Would love to see more from you!
Thanks for the feedback. I don't mind if you edit or not. Any feedback is awesome. I'll take everything you said into account for the next amv I make. I agree that some of the transitions were a bit overused or unnecessary.
The text was not my idea, it was in the anime itself. For the slowing when he was acting crazy, I'm not sure if I slowed it or not? I don't think I did. If you can teach me anything, it would be awesome. A video link is great also. |
