Adustum - AMV (Finished)

This entire winter break has been so busy! I made it my goal to finish my two AMV projects before new years. At the time I didn't really know (well mabey I did know...) that I would wait last second to work on them. Yes, the morning of new years I edited like there was no tomorrow (get it.. 2012? HA) Anyways, I only managed to finish one of them; Adustum. The other AMV (currently has no name) still has that weird song cut that I need to fix. In all honestly, I probably put in 4-5 days worth of editing in Adustum (1-2 hours of editing sessions) so it really shouldn't have taken me this long to finish; really does show my laziness. Anyways, I hope to finish my other amv within the next week so I can release both videos in HD on the AMV site.

Adustum has been super fun! Everytime I edit something I realize how much I miss it. Editing truly is like some disease that will never go away... (o.0) The actual flow of the video was a bit more upbeat than what I am use to, however I thought it was a great way for me to try some new editing styles. I recently went through a 3Oh!3 obsession, so that pretty much explains my song choice. I really need to start working on more complicated videos so I can show the process of an AMV. Adustum did take a lot of photoshop work and pan movement/ whatever you want to call it, but that is kind of hard to show an everyday viewer. However, I'll show one thing I can for now; Lip Flap! This is when you have a character babbling on about whatever and it is really distracting in an video! Thankfully there is a way to get rid of it, an editor will viciously cut out their mouths and stitch up the hole. (In all seriousness we just get rid of them talking through masking and adjusting speed)

I'll stop talking now and let you enjoy the video.
