The intro with everyone's face was well done and the ending parts were nice, but that rest was generic amv action nothing to do with the lyrics bullshit. You're improving though. That's a positive at least.

Okay. I said you were improving and you are, so feel good about that, but this is what you need to do.

Don't just shove random battle clips (with no editing no less. The Sasuke/Bee fight was basically just that fight) with no meaning to the lyrics into a video. Look at the following videos. Notice the time too. You don't have to make a full length 3-4 minute video. Don't fill in clips to get time, but most importantly, make the clips you do place important. This videos showcase that.






And then there are AU/Story-esque videos where the song is important, but sort of in the background as a story is being told. Usually an original story. Now, your type don't seem to be these, but just showing a different approach.






No matter, the scenes must be important and not thrown together. You got some really good stuff, but the Hidan/Asuma and Kakashi/Obito and Sasuke/Bee fighting didn't fit at all. I don't know how to explain it any more clear. It's right there. Look at the Naruto (Right Here) video and look at yours. Night and day. One is in sync with the lyrics and one is a general amv that gives amvs the bad rep they have, but yours has tons of little hints of potential especially with the opening and ending. Your are evolving and that's awesome. Feel extremely proud no matter my advice.

Yeah i agree with Jack... If you have seen my AMVs, you would see that it makes sense. Also... If you haven't noticed, i hardly use action scenes in my AMVs, BUT when the song course picks up i sometimes use fight scenes but try to make it fit to what i want. But yeah, as i said before... It's much better then you're first one, that's the thing with AMVs the more you make them, the better you will get.

No, no thank you for reading my post. I'm just glad you have a passion and a creative outlet and want to do better. Even if you never change what you do, I'm just glad you gave my advice some thought. You're a cool dude.

only 1 reply and so many views? come on -_-
im curious and need ur opinion.
That's how I feel whenever I make a thread. Anyway the AMV is decent but you should give it an actual theme instead of simply putting in random clips. Also use high quality clips and experiment with transitions and events in Sony Vegas. Check out TheBestAMVsofAllTime channel on u tube and you'll get some motivation. n.n

I agree... But remember it's only his 2nd AMV, his main concern is his timing, he needs a lil more practice before moving onto transitions etc... Also you do know that BestAMVsOfAllTime doesn't actually do AMVs himself, he just uploads AMVs from other ppls channels and promotes them, while also getting subs in the process...
