[ENP MEP] High (29/5/2017)

Big success considering that It's the 1st kind of serious MEP, for many of baby bird members. I thought the synergy was worth commending, but not entirely.
I thought the 2nd part stood out quite oddly; in a sense that it would work in a different MEP, due to the anime choice, plot, art style and coloring, and even the pattern of syncing. While the 3rd part suffered from a similar issue, but not as severely, and it could have complimented the rest of the MEP more if it had gone past the "dull" color scheme, and more towards darkness with contrast.

I was impressed by Chris and Sakon, who delivered quite well, as well as Mystyk and Sliceoflife, who in my book had superb editing and atmosphere.
As for the older, about to go senile people, I don't have to say anything. You're old and you get no attention from yours truly :)

good job guys =) , btw can u tell me the name of the song pls xD

Hello!Nice mep you got there fellas!Would be...terrible if someone came and put a dent on it...

Yea that's right.Since i'm not in the mep i can talk all the shit i want.
I'll try to present mostly my objective criticism and not go too much on what i found wrong and could be subjective.
This is to improve you,i'm not saying i'm better on these points im judging you on,if you get mad at me then please tell me so i won't mention your sorry ass again on anything,save my time.Yea this takes time.

Part 1

Let's start with the Missnotredkappa.I'm not gonna bash on it because it makes you feel like you took the video's virginity by accidentally clicking on it too hard.
Instead i'll take a peak at this.Glorious.

Spoiler:

I don't dislike you playing around with the moon.I admire this and your other experimental activities on the part but it's not quite there yet.
The edges of the moon turning white in between the fades make it evidently clear.

Part 2

Let's move on to Pony.The man the myth the legend.

Spoiler:

What else...0:46 one of the worst fast rolls i've seen at the end of a very slow scene.
Your part would be a lot better if you learned how to use the pan tool to produce movement and make it look more vivid.
The little panning you've done produces mixed feelings.On one hand it gives life to the part.
On the other hand its not consistent throughout the part so it makes the panned scenes seems disconnected from the whole part.

I could go on and "nitpick" (not really) on the part more but great volume in feedback doesn't help people grow.Chew on this for now.

Part 3

Not going to stay long on ruru.I knew there was a lot of pressure to get this mep going.I'll just say that i found most of the transitions too vanilla and weak.




Part 4

Nicole edited a mean part.So the only reason she's in this post is because i have a big gripe with her opening scene.
After using her green screen for the transition the hanekawa screen/overlay/mask/whatever lasted for 2 frames and made transitioning into the part a nightmare for the host.
As a set-piece it's fine,but as a part it was found wanting.Black borders didn't help with that either even though i can certainly appreciate the neat little transition into them.

Spoiler:

Part 5

Go back to moviemaker and one piece asmvs you trash.




Part 6

The sync could have been better.It'd be too tiring for me to pick out moments that are out of sync,simply because in a way the editor chooses how to sync his part,what approach to take in this endevour.
Depending on the way chosen any given moment could be rightly placed and synced.
So.the reason i can't pick out moments is because i feel like at least two different ways were used in an attempt to sync this part.
At some parts the sync was slow and at others the sync was fast in ways that it didn't compliment the part or the editor.
This thing comes with experience mostly but i wanted to point it out just in case it makes you grow faster.

Part 7

This is just an opinion but the slap scene was too weak to be masked into this.This is just an opinion though.
I'll fight you over something else.

Part 8

For the last part,i found the ZnT opening scenes didn't fit in as much as one would like.
Also,a small side-note that the coloring was kind of all over the place.
Featuring high contrast scenes,low contrast scenes,black and white scenes,multicolored scenes,single colored scenes and it's combinations.
Problem is,the switching to so many color settings so fast was unjustifiable to the eye,not a major gripe but it took away from the part.

Nice mep : D

By the way,great banner!

What do you mean by the slap scene being too weak to be masked? I actually thought the slap scene would fit well because of the strong beat and I didn't want to miss hitting the small beats either.

About the zoom, thanks for the suggestion, I'll try to look out for that next time and make it better if I do something similar.

Maybe i'm wrong on this one,maybe it's just me.The scene looks goofy to me.
