Excellent. I really hate vids that jump all over the place, never bothering to tell a story. The few that have a trajectory to them, that show a timeline of sorts, are the cream of the crop. This is one of them.

Thank you for linking this. It is, indeed, well done.

Exquisitely beautiful piece of art we have here, an AMV is worth a thousand pictures. It's new. One of the best I've seen in a while and one of my new favorites, it really captures a few themes Anno was going for- perfectly. Touch by Daft Punk.

Thanks! I was actually coming here to promote that myself, hah.

That was a fantastic video, Space Sweeper! I'll post the rest of my feedback under a spoiler in order to avoid ruining it for those who haven't seen it yet...

SPOILER: Show
I liked how the video was about lots of characters and relationships, rather than putting all the spotlight on just one character or pairing. And when the song went completely silent for a moment as the beach scene appeared near the end... that was so powerful, and so perfect. Oh, and the "repeat" sign at the end? Brilliant.

Thank you very much! I'd been working on it on and off for a year and a half, once getting three minutes into editing and then scrapping the entire thing because it didn't feel 'genuine' to what I was trying to express with my love of the series.

That's what it really is, a salute to the entire series, and how much every aspect of it means to me. Of course, that requires a song that fits so well that it could almost be straight out of the series' soundscape. Working with those themes, visuals, and keeping the cutting relatively simple and emotionally evocative like with...
SPOILER: Show
...cutting at the final moment of silence before Paul Williams' voice comes back in to one of the most visually gut-wrenching moments in the series (I was thinking, not showing it for the entirety of the video, people that knew the song were probably thinking "...that's what he's gonna do for the ending, isn't it?" the entire time).

The song itself is an almost epic-length story with its own highs, lows, and everything in between, and what better to set my personal love letter to the series to than that? That's not to say I won't be making any more videos for Evangelion, I still plan to do a 'sizzle' trailer for Evangelion (already did my teaser trailer), and another set for Rebuild as well as a symphonic mood-theme AMV for Rebuild, kind of similar in fashion to Touch in the way that it shifts emotions and the visuals connect with it, but played against the Mulan soundtrack's seven-minute 'Suite from Mulan' track, as composed by Jerry Goldsmith. I'm thinking of calling it 'Evangelion in Six Emotions'. It's a strange choice, but an inspired one, and I'm sure it will flow beautifully. That one may have to be done when 4.0 is out, however, as I don't think anything will be able to live up to the track's ending, outside of EoE.

Anyways, keep checking into the channel, I'll be sure to post anything Evangelion related I do in the future here (though my next set of videos, Kill la Kill and Cowboy Bebop related, will be posted elsewhere)!

I didn't comment on it at the time, but I have to agree that this is a very good AMV. My gold standard for Evangelion AMVs is Tamashii no Rufuran, and this comes very close to that in terms of quality. Even though I normally hate mixing continuities you used it very well here; you frequently highlighted the symmetry seen between them, not just in specific scenes but in juxtapositions of different scenes, and that was very effective. The only gripe I have, and it is a very tiny one, is the timing of the last scene. IMO it would be more effective if the glyph for Final showed up in concert with Williams' final lyric, instead of immediately after. But that's obviously a matter of taste.

As I said, great work. You should be proud!

Well, it's on the last chord rather than simply after the last vocal, which feels right to me.

A little bit of self-promotion here I guess, but I'm mainly looking for feedback on this AMV I put together. It's been a while since I've done one, and I'm wondering if it's of any quality whatsoever.

Not exactly a full on music video, but any fans of Toonami from back in the day should enjoy this playlist I compiled of (mostly) fan made toonami promos for Evangelion. Same music, style, etc as the old Toonami promos. Awesomeness. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAJyzp39MEYlXWKaaPaGzPlqRtF5qCRmu
Let's do this.

A Shinji/Rei AMV (yeah...another one of those I guess), using "The Piano Echoes" from UNKLE.
I think the song pretty much catches the mood involving Rei's character, all that mystery and gloom...
but I don't know, that's just me.

Hope everyone enjoys it!
