For me this video served as a promising introduction to GearSix's style. So welcome again and gratz for your 1st project with the team
In general it was a decent video. Nothing that reflects a lot but still decent and fine. I'm not going to nit pick too much because I'm aware of the circumstances that were present while making the video, but I will mention a few points.
Although Andrew's editing was as flawless as ever, it still limited the potential when a large amount of the scenes were ones of the most overused. THe output quality was splendid, and so was the editing like I said, but it needed your own touch which sadly you did not provide. My favorite part was sengoku basara, you really know how to be on fire Lol
Chris' parts showed potential. Although I believe that the difference in experience made Andrew be the power house of the MEP, I felt more energy from your parts since it felt like you were really trying your best. The thing that dragged your parts down though was the output quality. Rendering in wmv is never recommended unless your computer cannot afford a better format.

My favorite part was Hxh, the lip sync was decent and gave a strong feel, but hmm.. Dangerkids + that hxh lip sync strategy? Inspired by MDL are we? In any case it was still cool. Though the composition at 1:35 did more harm than good, if you have enough energy to make an Ae comp right there, make it as dark as the other clips, and then follow it up with another comp that shows the new adult gon, just to have an actual meaning behind the effects that you do. Always focus on the meaning.
But yes, keep going dude! Your style is unique compared to the rest of us, keep polishing it up, and make sure to work on the output quality. It will get you somewhere
Good stuff guys. I enjoyed it the visuals, and I expect some deeper meaning next time, or greater visuals, or whatever you want xD
