I created a poppy montage :)

i would love any feedback, im trying to improve with every video.

Do you think i used to many effects, or not enough? were the effects that i did use recognizable? were they even in the right places? did the clips look like they were transitioning properly? what do you think about the intro? Was the music appropriate?

This montage was well put together! My only nitpicks were the flashing screen while on the same clip and the few clips at the end when you were getting chased and prolly going to die.

Otherwise, I havnt seen a Poppy kick that much butt in a while!

All right, I'll be honest with you. It's bad and you overdid it.

Simply showing the clips w/o any music would have been better.

  1. Why did the music change from the first to the second clip? It's weird and physically hurts me.
  2. The heartbeat effect on the third/fourth clip was complety unnecessary since there wasn't happening anything scary / the plays weren't close at all. Literally the only reason for the heartbeat effect there was the music, this means that the gameplay didn't match the music / the music didn't match the gameplay. I like though how you times poppies abilities / the kill on the vayne with the beat in the 4th clip. But the veigar kill was out of sync again.

These are just some examples. You can avoid this by simply showing the gameplay with some not so bass / beat heavy music in the background, where you can maybe still hear some of the ingame sounds. A proper montage is hard to make since it requires a lot of gameplay to be cut in a way that fits the music.

Here is an example of how the gameplay has to fit the music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeaM2bbmNFU Notice how there's a spear finding it's target on every "BOOM HEADSHOT!" beat, but unlike your song this one also had "free for all" parts (the parts of the song w/o "BOOM HEADSHOT!") where you could fit all the plays in that don't fit in the beat heavy parts.

tl;dr: your gameplay doesn't match the song so it's bad.

It would be good but the blinking of the screen makes it hard to watch.... Just my 2 cents
