Okay, well I've never entered a challenge here before, and there's one small glitch in the video that I could not get to cooperate and go away no
matter how many times I tried, but other than that, well, I hope it's okay, lol. Please be nice? But truthful! I love constructive feedback. Though that's the point here right....? Anyway, thanks!

I liked it, it was very emotional. Tomin is differently one of my favourite secondary characters. I liked how well you incorporated his feelings of
guilt and the things he has done. I really really loved the voice over of him talking at the end with the credits, it was beautiful. You timed your
clips very well, especially from 2:38 - 2:40, I loved how fast the clips and beat was there. your use of the greyscale had a great impact as well. The
song is completely perfect. The clip at 1:31, when Tomin is looking out over the valley with his back to the camera was great.

I agree, this song was a perfect choice to show the changes Tomin went through this time. I loved the clips you've used, especially the emotional
ones with Vala, additionally all the clips from the Ark of Truth, they're amazing! Timing was nicely done, I liked the most the spaceships at
about0:20-0:25. And the end of your vid was just my favourite part from the movie, sooo perfect ending! The using of greyscale was disturbing a
little, but it's just me probably. Great job!
Just a small information regarding how to remove the DivX logo from a vid: http://kawoosh.co.uk/forum/viewthread.php?tid=340

Wow. That was amazing. I love it. Perfect song, great editing, and really emotional. Tomin was the stand-out character for me when I saw Ark of
Truth, so it's great to see a vid that does him justice. Very, very cool.

This was incredibly well done. As mentioned before, you managed to pull and play with the emotions behind Tomin and his character/experiences. Great
job!

The link goes to a site that streams it, lol. You're not going to get anything by trying to download it from that link up there. Just click on the
link and go to the page. If you 'want' to download it, there's a button on 'that' page that lets you. Sorry for the confusion. Let me know if tht
work out for you.

Wow, you did another great job with this one. I've always loved the character of Tomin - I think he had such a great arc (especially for a secondary
character) and I think you picked a great song to represent his journey. The VO at the beginning I especially like because it sets up the story so
well....and the kick-off into the harder music using the ships from either F&B or LITS really draws you into the video. Again, nicely done!

Truly beautiful video! I like that effect you have at the beginning. Love the timing on the flash effect at ~0:30 and 2:16 and a few other places.
I'm not exactly sure about the grayscale. I'm not catching why you use it.
I love the song. Perfect fit for Tomin's story. I would like to see the song trimmed though. I think it would be more emotional to take all of the
best scenes and use only one time through the verse, fading out after the vocal ends around 2:00. I really love the voice-over you have at the end,
but I think it would be more effective at the beginning, like what you have with the other voice-over but instead, have a black screen and the song
volume low, fading in louder, then video clips begin on the cymbals.
I hope I don't sound mean. I really like what you've done.
