Not my first idea for an AMV, but it is my first attempt. Is it perfect? Hell no. But since it is my first try and the only editing software I had was Windows Movie Maker, I am pretty happy with it. Lloyd and Colette, not necessarily as a couple, but it could certainly go that way if that's what you're looking for.

Thanks to Abyssal Chronicles for all the clips

I was inspired to do this by HeartofShou25's amazing collection of AMVs. Seriously, she's what totally made me interested in doing this. You must check her stuff out. Right now.

Sorry about the poor quality of the clips that aren't from the OVA, guys. I work with what I got.

You might not believe me, but as far as a first video goes, this is pretty good. You show a sense of timing, some transitions, and some scenes even followed the lyrics pretty creatively. Some people never even get that far! For right now, though, I'd say add in some more transitions- they'll help smooth things out- and make sure to follow the lyrics. I loved all the scenes with stars, but some were kind of random. Oddly enough though, I LOVE the part from 1:05 to 1:13. It's just...very cool.

Thanks for the super constructive criticism! I see and agree with everything you're saying, it was a big concern of mine. At the time, I was kind of at a loss for some of the transitions, so I'm figuring that is something that just takes practice. Perhaps someday I'll remake it. I really appreciate your looking at it, though!
