*post - Akross update, copy pasta from fb* The Akross results are out and I got 9th place. (www.akross.ru/index.cgi?sec=contest;id=426;l=e) I went into the contest with my eyes set on top10 and I actually got there with my first Akross entry, so I'm super happy still. So far the feedback from people and other editors has been probably the best I ever got, so that motivates me a ton. I'll try to make more of these "personal" AMVs, because they are so much more fun to make and I'm also way more satisfied with the result video. Even if they don't score super high in contests. 2017 has been such a good year. I made twice as many videos than usual, I met some super nice people from the amv community and I also finally joined an international amv contest. I hope 2018 will be as good if not even better. Thank you!
Yes, please do focus on more intimate videos like this. To me a good AMV isn't just a showcase for the technical skill of the editor, but a condensed representation of an aspect of the show. And this does that perfectly, I haven't even seen the anime yet (though I certainly will now), but in this AMV even I can see the sense of wonder the show portrays and how deeply important the friendship between the two girls is. I've never understood how some AMVs become so popular when they have nothing of the spirit of the show in them, just editing - however good - and randomly picked action shots to random hype music. :x So thank you for this, perfect shot composition, superb editing, fantastic song choice and just a lot of emotion. Keep up the great work, it is appreciated. =)
Well deserved I had a hard time choosing where to place you, you were all around the place in my top 10 this AMV is just so fun to watch and never gets less enjoyable. Glad you were happy with your placing.
Very cool video! Have been rewatching it a lot recently - love how the visuals and the music merge together and how uplifting the atmosphere is. Even though I haven't seen the show yet, to me it feels as if this song was meant to illustrate this anime. Great job and keep it up~
Holy crap I just realized that at 1:30 there was supposed to be a fade in/out to black, not just hardcut, fuck qq Anyway, ikr, all these things are awesome C:
