FIRST. AMV. EVER.

This was my first ever attempt at making an AMV, although I've had the idea of using this song with clips from the first Cardcaptor Sakura movie for... years (2003!). I've attempted to make it before, but never got past importing the clips into Windows Movie Maker before it crashed. I don't know what and I don't know how, but something possessed me the other day to finally make this, 5 or so years later.

So this AMV is from Sakura's point of view, and basically tells a story about how the person she loves (Yukito) no longer cares for her like he once did, and she doesn't know if she can take it anymore. The hair ornament sort of acts a symbol of their love. When selecting clips to use, I did my best at trying to make them match the timing of the lyrics.

It was created using iMovie, which I found to be oh-so-very limiting when trying to create the mood and feel that I wanted in this AMV. There are only a few transitions you can use, and none which you have very much control over so I feel that I did the best I could with what I had. If I'm able to get my hands on a copy of Final Cut Pro, I may remake this AMV, but for now, enjoy!

Ratings/comments VERY MUCH appreciated!

It's pretty good! :D

My first attempt hadn't turned out so well as yours, but that might be because I had limited scenes...!! :D

For a first AMV, it's not bad at all. You're already ahead of a lot.

You got the clip matching to the tone of the song (not nessiarily the lyrics, but consitering the lyrics and the movie's clips, I don't think you can), but when the beats get stronger, it needs a little more faster clips. The same theme in your clips is brought over from the slower parts of the song and seems slightly akward.

Just my opinion, though. Like I said, it's really good for a first AMV. =D

You should make more!

Final is great! But sometimes I can not make the best use of it. Anyway, I enjoy your work, especially the song!
