[EVS] White Requiem

WARNING: B/c I'm nice I'm going to warn you right now - if you haven't completed all of Code Geass (and I mean all of BOTH seasons) you WILL be spoiled (assuming you somehow don't already know the ending... XD) so yeah. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Do you know why snow is white?....It's white because it's forgotten what color it used to be." - C.C.
"I do not know why snow is white, but I do think it's pretty." - Lelouch. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Anyways I started this vid for round 2 of Project Surge where we were all assigned a color we had to work with and coordinate into our entry. I was assigned into the silver crew - light which basically means I had to work with white/light gray and avoid black. Somehow I came up with this idea, and decided to make it into a full video after deciding I would be attempting to enter something into Otakon this year..... which may very well be this video unless I can edit something better before the deadline xD

Masking is a huge pain in the ass but oh it is so worth it in the end. Took me forever to edit and took forever to render.....the number of track layers did not help. Nope. This vid is basically LuluxC.C. awesomeness and angst. I don't think I quite succeeded in making an emotional connection to the song and my flow is a bit funky, but w/e this came out okay in the end and I'm so glad to be done with it :'D

Wish me luck for this round.... I may need it.......

not to be a drag or anything, but how do you edit the clips to make the coloring look so..deep? Masking? example at 0:52

[SapphireStar26]

@MadHattress24 no I didn't use masking lol, it's an effect under color corrector secondary. It's called something like "desaturate highs" I think.

@oxoConstantinEoxo I respect people's opinions, however my song choice has no relevance to the editing, which is what SHOULD matter in an AMV; you shouldn't base your opinion of a video SOLELY on the song used. Forgive me if I sound a bit rude, but that's just stupid. I'm glad you support me but please use better judgment when deciding if a video is good or not. Remember it's the EDITING that makes the vid, not necessarily the song and condemning a vid b/c of the song used is just lame.
