AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
http://vimeo.com/31282042
I was wondering what you think of this AMV that I made with DBZ/Kai and the song "Carry On (My Wayward Son)" by Kansas. It's sort of my tribute to Gohan.

The scene of Gohan going SSJ2 for the first time is overrated.
Re: AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
For some reason people use it in most AMVs. But this was a Gohan tribute, so it was kind of needed.hleV wrote:The scene of Gohan going SSJ2 for the first time is overrated.
Good AMV though, it's nice to see one not covered in effects.

Looks really cool. Nice song choice.

Nice song choice. It's not too often you see good DragonBall AMVs, but I think you nailed this one.

Re: AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
Well, it is overused, I realize, but it's sort of where the whole concept of the AMV came from. I thought that "Carry On (My Wayward Son)" syched up somewhat well with that scene (and fit thematically), and went from there into a full Gohan tribute.hleV wrote:The scene of Gohan going SSJ2 for the first time is overrated.

Re: AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
Okidok, first off all: Horrible song choice.
It understand the "son" thing, but the song is way to happy, and the opening sucked.
I could write lots of more stuff, but i don`t want to be to negative.

Re: AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
You're already being really negative. It'd be nice if you could explain more as to why you think the opening sucked instead of just saying so. There's a difference between bashing someones work and constructive criticism.

Re: AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
I've seen some really crappy AMVs in my time, but this isn't one of them. Though, I don't think that this is necessarily the best song to match up with Gohan's character. Jumping from clip to clip without any kind of transition has a bit of a jarring effect, as is mixing 16:9 and 4:3 ratios - a simple, quick (maybe a half-second) dissolve here and there could help.
All in all, though, it's definitely a decent effort, and better than anything I've attempted to do with regards to videos. I learned long ago that I'm better off sticking to manipulating pixels in Paint.

Re: AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
I agree that i shouldnt be so negative, and i should give my reasons, and i would, if the AMV wasnt made by penguintruth. Because, penguintruth has been rude almost everywhere, and i have no respect for him whatsoever.Drabaz wrote:You're already being really negative.

Re: AMV: Carry On My Saiyan Son
When I saw the title, at first I thought it was gonna include Carry On from Sailor Moon.
