This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

My first AMV!

Yay!  It's just a practice one, but tell me what you think.
Tokiko and Mikage oh my.

Re: My first AMV!

It's pretty good. With some tightening up (if your software would allow) it'd be even better, but the core concept and song are great. emot-keke

I love that you used Tokiko. etc-love Minor character use in AMVs is so refreshing.

Re: My first AMV!

Nice! Got me to watch the whole AMV! emot-keke
Most AMVs gets me bored that I stop watching them midway..

Anyway, I might be a little slow, but who exactly is the main focus?
'Mikage' or 'Anthy'? or Both? emot-dance

Upload it to www.animemusicvideos.org, and I'll give it a review.

Re: My first AMV!

Oh cool, is there another She Wants Revenge album ?

Matching SWR to Utena is a great idea, I wish I'd thought of it first !

The editing is pretty rough, my main complaint is the number of "orphan frames", where the scene changes just before the end of the clip, so you get a quick flash of the next scene. Also, use footage without subs if at all possible, subs are distracting and take away from the mood of the video.

Great concept though, I look forward to seeing your next one !

Mikage and Tokiko/Utena (since he sees Utena as Tokiko.)
Anthy too, with the Anthy/Mamaiya.

purplepolecat, yup indeed there is emot-keke  It's called "This is Forever."  It's amazing.  The orphan frames where something that really confused me, they didn't appear until after I loaded up the video to youtube... so I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong with the file formating. 
Also, not much I can do for the subtitles.  They're the files I have, and I shouldn't make my computer struggle more.

Here's the second one. http://youtube.com/watch?v=wrOUJO_Fctg
It has issues... it freezes in random places. I'm starting to get the hang of this though.

I like that ! The editing is better, both technically and from a concept point of view. Keep at it !
