#Ghet AMV

Part 5 (and the final part) of my AMV Summer Bootcamp series!

For the final round, the theme was adventure, and I decided to go with Fullmetal Alchemist on this one! I'll be straight up: I don't really like this video. Even though there were two weeks for the final round, I really struggled with editing (maybe from burnout, maybe from not liking my idea as much as time went on). However, I finished it, so that's an accomplishment itself. I survived the AMV Summer Bootcamp!

Some context for the video itself: I wanted to show the brothers' journey. I just love how throughout their journey they influence so many people, and they learn from that experience to ultimately get their happy ending. But while in the previous round my love of the source material was a strength, in this round it was a weakness. I just wanted to capture that feeling I had, but with so many different things showcasing that it ended up being messy and not all that cohesive. It makes for a good 64 episode anime, not so much an AMV. If I try something like this in the future, I'll definitely need to narrow my focus.

Ultimately, this video got a 206 out of 300. I didn't even expect to score above 200, to be honest! But reading through the judges' comments, they had the same criticisms that I had, but they also had some positive comments about it too. It was very encouraging when I was feeling bluh about the whole thing. :)

And that's it for my AMV Summer Bootcamp Series! Thanks to kireblue for running the contest, and alchemymini, MycathatesyouAMV, PieandBeer, Xophilarus, CeliaPhantomhive and Ghet. It was a great experience thanks to your hard work, and I'm really glad that I decided to be a part of it!
