This is my sixth foray into montage creation: http://useruploads.mythica.org/view/Metamorphosis.wmv.

I've begun to synch audio/video and am interested in any comments/criticism.

Watching...

That was synching? AC/DC would be ashamed of how you used their music like this. The editing was poor, at best, and it looked like you were trying to write your name on the wall. There were also several clips where you killed one guy and there was another player around which you did nothing about and then you went onto the next clip, which I might say, is a montage-making sin. Your kills were very unimpressive and poor, as well. Next time, I suggest that you work on editing, delete the crappy clips (like the ones you used in this montage), and don't rush it.

*Sigh*, FFS Kim...Anyway as much as I don't want to sound like a condescending -blam!-, *Looks at Kim*, I must say editing needs work. Also to many missed shots took down the quality, there were some good sprees in there but it got pulled down by some clips that you could have gone without. However, like I said, some awesome, triples, doubles, and sprees in there. Songs were good too.

Yeah, things to maybe think about improving:

Video Smoothness
Kills
Editting

Seriously, I don't understand how anything was timed there. Don't replay clips completely unless they were fantastic. 2 Kills is always more impressive than 1. Only use good clips for your videos, I don't think any of these were really good enough, other than few which I could deem timewasters. If you want to maybe show a bit of base rapeage, make it a bit like Silly's kills fromthe community video.

I can see where you matched up some shots with the music but most of them weren't...how do I say this.. "pronounced" enough, so they could be easily missed. I would have made it so that everytime they said THUN-DER! someone would be flying through the air from high explosives.

*flushes again*

One thing you can't do is leave the clip hanging. There was a couple where you killed two people and were engaged with a third and then cut away to the next scene. Bad. Finish the scene even if you get killed or don't show it at all. I don't think its a bad thing to show yourself dying in a montage especially if it is unique.

*picks up Kim's head to let him get a breath then dunk him again* *flushes again*

I had never heard that second song and was shocked that is was Motley Crue. They should be embarrassed they put that out I thought it was awful. Other wise It was allright.

*picks Kim head up and throws him in the MAW Quiet Room.* *opens door and throws him a towel* *locks door*

Maybe, just maybe, I don't feel like sugar-coating my responses like you guys do. This isn't elementary, you know. If you read his post, it was his sixth montage. I'm sorry I have a higher standard than you do, don't blame me for being a critique. He asked for criticism, did he not?

On the other hand, now that I saw it a second time, I noticed there were some good kills that weren't too bad. A decent snipe or two. But that's all I have to say for it. My reply was at least honest.

Amadeus, keep working on it - you'll make a decent video someday.

True, it is not like he is ten years old, he can handle the truth.
