I created another Batman Begins music video called "Paint it Black." This action packed video features the film in a unique Sin City style. In other words, I created a black and white color scheme with hints of color. Click the teaser graphic below to check it out. As always, video reviews are very welcome. ;D Enjoy, Kristin

It's a cover. I chose it b/c it's darker and more fitting for the film. Hope you like it!

What kind of film? I don't normally do editing for others. It's just been a big hobby of mine.

Well, I'll have to see. I have some midterms hitting me soon, so I may be too busy.
The song is a cover of the old rolling stones song. This version is darker and more fitting for the movie. It's by The Tea Party.

It finished loading before I left so i watched it. & Holy ****! That was amazing. You edited it perfectly. All the video fit with the music brilliantly. Overall one of my favorite music videos. My only complaint is i didn't like the flashes lightsources gave off. They seemed to flash a lot. But other than that Flawless! PPPPPPPPLLLLLLLLZ! Edit my movie!

The video is pretty cool. I absolutely loved Batman Begins, but the one area in which I feel it was lacking was that it did not have an easily defineable unique "style" or "feel" in the way the other Batman films did. Maybe its because of the relative realism that runs through every aspect it, or maybe its because of the subdued soundtrack, or maybe its just because I'm older and slightly less prone to "investing" in the film's reality than I was when I was younger. My favorite Batman music video was Seal's Kiss From A Rose...even though the lyrics didn't exactly "mesh" with the Batman character, the tone of the words and music and the mood/editing of the video felt perfect. I don't know if anyone understands what I'm talking about, but in any case, your "music videos" help to 're-inject' some of that mood into Batman Begins for me. Thanks for that.

Earl: Thanks a lot! I loved the dark gritty feel of Batman Begins anyway, but I wondered what it would look like in a style like Sin City. This video was quite a challenge and I really enjoyed creating it. I haven't seen the Kiss from a Rose video, but I am flattered you compared my videos to one of the professional ones for the older films.
arkhaminmate: Thanks a bunch! I used the flashes as a pattern towards the end to help match the beats of the music. Please get in touch with me by email when you want me to edit your movie and I'll see what I can do. ;D

Thanks. & by the way i thought about that. The flashes are in sync with the beat of the song. So now my only complaint is. You made it sooooooo good! & I can't stop watching it. You made it addictive! But i mean it as a compliment in a wierd sorta way. You definately should land a job as an editor. You're awesome. I'll give you another hero just because I'm addicted to it.

Aww, you flatter me arkhaminmate! Thanks again! Really appreciate it! What do you mean by give me another "hero?" Are you talking about the "bat-karma" thing under our avatars?

Post by MuksC on Nov 2, 2005 8:34:45 GMT -5
yep.
if you like someones post or opinion, you click on the 'Hero' under their profile. if you don't like what they've written, you select 'villain' instead.
then your Bat-Karma will either go up or down depending on what people think of you.
