Post subject: Old Project/Teaser: Looking for Critique

A long time ago, me and Crazyfist were going to make a dueltage called victor. It was going to be different, entertaining, serious, and visually awesome. I have long since stopped making that montage, but I did make an intro for it, and I figured the community that I love deserves to see it. Tell me what you guys think, I am looking for constructive criticism.
P.S. I am sorry that the slow-motion is choppy. It isn't in the RAW file, but is on youtube. It annoys the crap out of me.

To be honest, intro looks cheap. it would be better if you deleted that part with moving pictures of cell and marine on weird yellow background, and if you changed those plain white letters with some nice 3D looking text.
PS. Too bad if you had to abandon the project, because it would be something of great entertaining value.

Yeah, this is rough draft of an intro. To fix the running face, I just need to close crop it, and restrict the .wiggle() method to only up and down and maybe a TINY horizontal wiggle. The font was never intended to be just white, either.

I may say things storm said but, I remember you showing this before and now here's my opinion. The intro was nice, though, the wiggle (I believe you call it) doesn't really suit the nanosuits in my honest opinion here, I think you should replace that with a grey sky and all, or something else, I liked the second scene, however, it's like one of those tekken battle things, also work on your masking. ;) All I can say for now mate, I need to see more footage than just a 30 sexy clip. XD Hoping to see more man.

I like the whole manga style duel animation thing.
What I would change is how from the first perspective of that, they both run in the same direction. You probably thought of that before but yeah, reverse one of the two contenders to oppose the other.
Then, BEFORE that and as a first scene would be a frontal view of the face with that same engaging background. First perspective would be the face of one and then the other. You don't want to show their whole bodies on beginning but keep it gradual.

That would be a good idea. I would need to make sure it worked out with the time queue at the bass drop. What might happen is it might end up cutting everything a little too short if I add more scene cuts in.
