[QUOTE=StormBlink;44884836]I think it is fine, Better then the piece of shit Saxxy Entry. I swear you guys are being Biased with it and rating it dumb because of what preceded it. I think that while it is outside the TF2 Zone, It kept with it better then 'Fragile Dream' and just needs some fine tuning.
Don't care if it was focused on a Nazi theme, I don't care who made it, I don't care that it has clipping and bad choreography and lip syncing; Those did not bother me when I watched it. I enjoyed it, I think it is subpar and not the best, But it isn't worthy of all those dumbs.[/QUOTE]

i'm going to be honest with you: take the song, the existing coreography and even the already defined shots and what you get? her lack of interest on following that already performed coreography, or the theme of the song and its original context and simply a forcefully nazi theme wich really doesnt even make sense when you hear nazis talking about killing a king. if it wasn't her replicating an already existing video, i asure you we'd have another of his saxxy "so surreal because it says so" senseless stuff. hell, the original song isnt about an incoming dictatorship about to overthrown an established monarchy, its an ode to Scar's fabulous charisma and everlasting vanity as a future leader. the reason why the original features a scene wich mimics a military parade is because it reinforces scar as that vile force that competes in secrecy for power while mufasa rules by his own right. you know, like your classic disney movie villian.
hell, the original theme has a more tribal-ish vibe and stuff rather than a full forced militar march.
i am not saying that replicating already made videos over SFM is a bad thing. is it bad when they rely purely on what they are based on and not on the own creator's skill to use said source as an element of the video and not only as "the" reason to watch it. namely:
[video=youtube;MLPkKZS6q9k]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLPkKZS6q9k[/video]
tl;dr: its worth of all those dumbs and probably way more, but you'll only see them here, let it be bias or not. its probably the only place where it will be criticized for being a poorly executed piece.
GentleBot Hell is one of the best SFM music videos I've ever seen. I really don't have to explain why.
So apparently people have become a critics.
If you feel that cocky why don't you go and make a video in SFM?
Of course some videos MIGHT be ugly but they need to be tread with respect (even a bit). At the end, someone spend time and effort on finishing those videos.
What I see in here is just complaining and complaining.
You don't like, [B]disagree.[/B]
Use Dumbs for really excessive examples.
Edit: Some people takes time to improve you know. Some people just don't want to...
What bugs me the most about the video is those straps on the sleeve that attach on the gloves.
They look cool but the fact they were more mangled than guts in a blender most of the time is something what really bothered me.

Ooooihhhhhh mmmmmmmyyyyyyy gooooooooodddd.
Every time someone posts a kungfubellydancer video we get into a huge fucking discussion about the video of how its edgy and bad.
We got it, her videos are edgy and weird.

Does it mean that you have right to trash someone's effort just because you did not like it?
Have some respect man! People may have terrible vids but they put some effort and time in it.
Firemen also put effort into keeping a steam engine going, but when it derails, well... It's a trainwreck anyway.
Quality of a product isn't determined by the amount of effort put into the product.

oh my god you whine at everything dont you?
Nobody gets special treatment because they "made an effort". If people think it's shit, they'll say it's shit. Simple as.

That's not what he is saying.
He is saying that said effort must be at least acknowledged, even if the quality is bad (i.e. someone spends countless hours on tf2 but is still bad at it)

If you don't give criticism, no matter if polite or not, people will never improve.

effort means nothing and you cant factor it in your judgement about something because [B]you're suposed to make an effort to produce quality[/B], otherwise you get this lazily animated, poorly executed video.
asking to value someone's effort simply because "you did it and spent time on it" is nothing but a poorly excuse to justify one's poor work.

So you tried and are therefore immune and above criticism? What possible sense can that make? how could anyone ever get better if they refuse to admit that their content needs improving? ALL content, every creative endeavor in human history can be improved and it is blind sided brazen arrogance to think that there's no room for improvement in anything you do. Refusing to accept critique is nothing but pernicious and that is all there is to say.
On another topic though, i found this photo while modeling the T1

Personally? I think the lighting was superb. she was following the theme and did so mostly dedicatedly.
There's the Pros. the cons? unoriginal nazi theme as everyone else said, adds nothing to the video. if you're just remaking a video in 3D you may aswell go back and watch the 2D. I use SFM, so i at least know enough to see the effort and time she put into it. she just focused too much on making it shot-forshot and just adding nazi clothes. She's waaaay above me in animating like every other animator is to me. doesn't change the fact how dull and disinteresting the effort was.
the lighting was good and i enjoyed the set design and camera work but the whole nazi theme just made me really uncomfortable.. i'm seeing more "the nazi thing is played out!" then "the nazi thing is kind of fucked up to project on something as lighthearted as tf2 or even the lion king"
[QUOTE=Erfly;44887864]If you don't give criticism, no matter if polite or not, people will never improve.[/QUOTE]
Well that's just not true in any sense.
Ignoring the fact that the likelihood of the creator actually reading the thread is negligible, I really don't think anyone here was trying to help anyone improve and were instead just stating their opinions on the video (which is fine, it's half the point of the thread). Even then criticism is only really of use if it is constructive. Somebody saying "I don't like it" or "It sucks" is certainly criticism but it is of no use to a content creator because all it tells them is that that particular person didn't like it without any suggestion as to why. Similarly a lot of people don't like being abused, so in all truth being impolite in your criticism is only going to make the creator less likely to listen to you. And even then the idea that people [I]need[/I] criticism to improve is incorrect. It can certainly help but people aren't totally helpless without it.
I reiterate, feel free to express how much you dislike the video in as many or as few words as you feel appropriate, but lets not delude ourselves into believing we are conducting a service in doing so.
It was just a mediocre video that, for whatever reason, people are treating as particularly noteworthy.

You don't need to make a video to criticize one.
