Editor: Resma1 Anime: Tokyo Ghoul Song: Starset - Carnivore
Description: Well, this is my first post in the forum, but I will write a presentation as soon as I finish this. I believe you are all great editors and that's because I'm posting my newest amv, it would be great if some of you could give me advices on how to improve my editing...I'm not very experienced and I almost have no friends in the amv world! So yeah, as I said, it would be great ahaha
I hope you enjoy the video, byeee :)

Yup, we'll be your 1st friends then :3
Hi there! I quite enjoyed your video. It is true that it shows you are new to this hobby, but at the same time it shows you really have a lot of talent for this so I highly encourage you to keep going
The 1st point I like to point out is that you clearly thought well about what song to use with your anime. Carnivore certainly matches Tokyo Ghoul in one way or another which gets you an instant +1 from me. At the same time tho I thought the lyrics did not match at some stages like 0:17 to 0:23 << At this stage the lyrics talk about a man who the world keeps telling he will never achieve his goals/dreams, but the scenes you put are not as deep as the song. So focusing more on mood sync and lyric sync would be a good thing.
Although your beat sync was really good in this video. The intro music needed so much more. I mean 0:07 to 0:13 had so much going on with the music and drums, but you only put 2 clips there that are not dynamic enough (do not have enough movement) for the music. So be careful with music solos, doing them good will leave a positive impact on the whole video.
Aside from that I believe you are dong very great for a new editor. So much talent indeed, but I advise you to disable the resample. You can do that by right clicking your clip on your sony vegas timeline, and going to switches > Disable the resample. There will be no more duplicated frames. So yea. Keep going dude! I'd love to see more videos from you!

Thank you man! You are right, I should have put some action in the intro part, also I will try to be more careful with the lyrics and choose the right/best scenes. I'm glad an advanced editor liked the video :) Thank you for the resample tip too, never found that in any tutorial I promise I will do my best with the next amvs
See you! :DD

The funny thing is that I subbed to this guy's amv and tutorial channels just yesterday haha Thank you, finally I found good rendering settings and the resample thing turned out veeery useful (masks were always a pain because of those duplicated frames)
Thank you guys :)
