lizardjay: Sakura Haruno looking skeptical (Default)

My current AMV is kicking my ass, so I turned to [community profile] vexercises to try my hand at something slightly easier. I was a little afraid, because the rules for the current exercise are this:

Pechakucha 2 ways: Create a video edit of exactly 60 seconds consisting of precisely 10 video clips from your chosen source text, each lasting precisely 6 seconds, assembled with straight cuts. Make two versions of your pechakucha, with 1 minute excerpts from two different songs as audio. Fade in and out on your audio at the beginning and end of the audio clip.[Word to the wise: Most six second clips that you use are bound to have in-clip cuts--you don't have to go looking only for clips that have no internal cuts. But you can make those internal cuts work for you rhythmically or thematically etc!]

And six seconds is SO long. But! Then I sat down for about two hours and knocked these out. Of course there's a bunch of things I'd like to tweak, if I didn't have to go with six seconds exactly, but they turned out really fun.

It's Naruto, but if it was a horror anime. If you have a strong aversion to worms, I'd skip these.

WHOA both of these are awesome! It's amazing how powerful music choices can be, these two videos felt so different. Kesha was great for what felt like a visual climax at 0:34, yet I liked how well Ichika Nito fit the opening clips, when Naruto closes his eyes. These videos make me wish Naruto had taken some of its horror elements a little farther than the canon did, haha.
