EDIT: It's a KH/KH2 AMV so it -HAS SPOILERS-, beware!! About the first minute and a half of an AMV I'm making. Okay, well...Don't hurt me if it sucks. Let me know if it was okay and if I should finish it, 'cos nobody on YouTube will D: Oh, and, BTW, I had my mum upload it for me (as always) and I wrote the description. I don't have an account on the 'Tube. XO By the way, the song is The Bird and the Worm by The Used. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-WKTLcNea0 ...*runs away* Let me know if it was all right! ^^;;.
Hmmm... very intriguing... I like the song choice and the variety of effects you used... I'de be very interest to watch the final product.. well done! (Sorry I can't give better critiquing... I'm not very good at it ^^; )
I really liked it so far. Nice job for your first video with Vegas. There were a couple bad sides though. Instead of using a bunch of short clips to match the beat (which is a bit overused), try using another effect with them (i.e. flashes, zooms, quick effects, etc.). That, or just try the effect on a single clip. Another thing I didn't really like was the amount of effects you used. Effects can make your video great, but too many can ruin it. Besides those two, I found nothing else wrong with the video. Good job.
@draik88 - Thank you so much for your feedback! ^^ And, don't worry, I suck at critique, too xD. Glad you liked it. @KL93 - Thanks! I'll try not to use the effects so much -- y'know, it was my first time with the editor, I was really excited, so I was all, "Oh -- I have a new editor! Effect spamming time!!" xD I had a feeling it was a bit too much, but I was having so much funn... Anyway, thanks both of you for your feedback ^^. And sorry for the super-late reply. I'm working on another project right now, but I'll get right back on this one when I'm done (I suck at multitasking >.>;;.)
The video was actually very nice. I'd like to see the finished product XD;;; Uhm... Critique: - I'd like to ask j00 to crop the video when you're in the "touch up" phase (that's what I call it) to get rid of the subtitles and black margin around it. Makes it look nice :D - Err... I have a tendancy to overuse the "small clips with the beat" effect also so I won't strike you down with that. I do recommend you don't use too many effects even though it may look cool. Once, I saw a video with TOO MANY effects and it blinded me with the split second flashing and rainbow colors. (I gave it a rating of 3/10 so X|)... Since the editor is new, I'd try to keep it simple but still cool looking. However, if you want to have fun and put in as much stuff as you want that's fine with me. Just as long as it doesn't blind me I'll probably give you a good rating. AND layering is your friend X3... - The negative effect when Sora is put in the "sleeping pod" can be removed since it only distracted me... Unless you can stick in an effect that compliments it or extend the effect... or maybe just put in a simple fade in-fade out or a flash for it. - I didn't like the sunny effect in the middle of the video (KH2 Intro w/ Sora & Riku)... I personally thought it looked bad. I think just some flashes would have been fine or some other effect that would look better. I'm a stupid AMV maker so you don't have to listen to me. I suck at making AMVs, so if anyone wants to flame against my AMV style, it's fine. I won't get offended.
Oh, okay. Thanks for the feedback! I'll be sure and remove some of the extra useless effects in the video, when I finish it. And I'll try and crop out the subtitles, yeah. xD I have no idea WHEN I'll finish it, I've been doing a lot of other random videos lately...But I WILL finish. Sometime O.O;;.
