My first montage video...

[Sir Wood]

Here's a sampling of the original I just worked on this evening (a good 3-hrs since I'm a newbie).

Very little transitional effects because the initial work was based off matching the essence of the images with the music lyrics, and it would have taken a lot longer. Anyway, I hope you'll all be able to get the file and view it.

Alizée - Take My Breath Away (by Berlin)

Anyway, time for a break and some dinner...

good video wood, i appreciate your first work... you have done well,
so you have done that video only with wallpapers, try editing some of the her videos and publish it!

Better than my first videos have been in general.

I'd recommend cropping the images so that there aren't any borders. Also, how about some musique française at the least, if not Alizée?

Thanks! Yes, that will be my next big hurdle since I'm still learning. I've something in mind, I just have to get all the pieces together, so I'm not sure when that will happen.

Merci. I know what you mean. I was just excited to start playing and learning something new and was not paying too much attention to the image borders but their sequence to the music.

Pretty good Sir Wood, not bad..you sure that's your first video, you seem like a natural at this. The image cuts went with the beat, good job. Alizee takes my breath away thats for sure

I liked the ending when you phased out with that heart shape

3hrs, yea it's time consuming makeing Alizee videos but the best part is....while you are making the video, lol You're the Director and its alot of fun

good job
