I know it's a dying art and all (and it isn't anywhere close to remotely perfect), but I had made a short AMV last month on S;G Episodes 12-14 and 21-22. You can take this as commercial spam if you want, but I'm just curious to get some thoughts. Also read description. Tell me if it's shit/mediocre/etc. Should go without saying, but if you haven't watched up to Episode 22 of S;G, just ignore this entirely. Or just ignore it regardless.

I'll probably regret making this post, but it's worth a shot.

I personally think it's Meh, but a stark improvement compared to everything else I've put out.

Personally I never found the appeal of creating AMVs. Good on you though.

Well yeah, they're frustrating to make, agonizing to organize footage for, and take 7hrs to render. Still, I like to think that a good AMV is an art form of editing, in itself.

I have a bit of an inferiority problem, that's probably why. Also I've seen AMVs which are just an absolute spectacle, while mine was just a short passion project.

Yeah, my friend loses her shit over those edits, but they make no sense in regard to the actual content they're portraying. 99% of the time it's just a trending Tiktok song that doesn't fit whatsoever. Thanks!

Niice. My vote would be
□ Very Good

The song fits the depressing mood of the series. Especially the visuals you put together alongside the lyrics being sung.

Nice job 👌

Personally, I enjoy the song (For Whom The Bell Tolls by JCole), but it wasn't my first choice. It just so happens I lost that project on my old Pc. That song I was going to use inspired Steins;Gate, I'm convinced with how well each lyric fit. When it comes to AMVs, you need to make sure the song in question fits with what you are trying to portray. The song fits pretty well.

you know, its really decent. i liked the music choice, it fits at least, not like some trendy song or any other popular ones. though imo it lacked on-beat frames near the beginning and the end. overall, good one.
p.s. its really good and reassuring to have someone supporting you in your thing, so dont be so harsh on your own work, someday it'll meet your expectations through the effort, ganbare!

Yeah I'll admit in the end, I kinda just lost sight of what I was trying to do. In the beginning, it was intentional, since I wanted it to match the lyrics. Thanks, appreciate it.
It's just I hate those 16 year old something kids who post on music videos "I'm just a kid trying to make it in the rap industry, I know no one will give me a chance, but..." (Shameless promoting). And I guess subconsciously I kind of related this post to that. Appreciate the feedback!

LMAO, I actually see Semi-decent as a good thing. It's just my standards even for myself are quite high, since I've seen so many incredible AMVs that just make me go "How the fuck did they make this?" Some of those edits genuinely belong in a competition for editing. In comparison, mine is like a drop in a bucket. To me, it's the best thing I've put out, but my editing skills still need a lot of work. Still, I started out with crappy Naruto AMVs in Sharefactory (A PS4 program which has a max splitting limit and project length and so many limitations), and came this far. So, at least I've accomplished something.

I too believe the amv was good without those overkill effects... Though the song wasn't good and it didn't fit with the steins gate theme.... Just my opinion... Still the vote options :D

I think the song fit well, due to its overlap with S;G's themes of hopelessness and desperation. It's interesting how so many people don't like the song choice.

I quite liked this, a little long for my taste in AMVs but that is a very very minor complaint as I enjoyed it throughout. Well edited, you lined up the scenes and different shots very well. It was smooth, flowed together really well. Cool stuff.

As an artist myself, there’s always room for improvement, but you did a good job. It’s easy to put yourself down as an artist (believe me I know) but know when to give yourself credit when it’s due, and when also to critique your stuff. Look back on your amv and see what you can do to make it better and work in that.

Well I wouldn't really characterize what I did as "art," but yeah a well-made AMV is an editing art form. Well, I appreciate the support!
