Sunrise PV thoughts - Page 3

As I said it's ok. Nothing special and pretty simple, but I like it.
The structure is the most amazing thing in the PV O_O seriously is huge!
Even if Sunset will be better, I guess lol

The pv is OK. It doesn't really have a replay value, but I dun mind watching it again (compared to kaz's directed pvs. I couldn't even finish watching the whole Sparkle pv). I see some of you hate the boots.. But I like them. When I saw the boots, they really stood out and made her outfit more interesting.

Maybe it's because we can't really hear her vocal so we can't hear the excitement she has in her voice.. hm..

It's not that people have short attention spans, but the PV is supposed to be fun and exciting. What's exciting about a scene that drags on? Imagine if they kept the same camera angle on her when she was singing live.

Maybe you're right about the excitement factor in her voice. Some of her movements were very natural, some I've seen her do in actual lives so it didn't strike me as weird. Some of the other movements in the PV that she did seemed forced and unnatural, which could have been because we couldn't really hear if she was excited or not.

the structure is so big that it look empty
the video needs some 1000 extra souls to fill the base

is a nice video..but..look....empty (talking about audience)

ayane4ever · #45 1st August 2009, 12:46 AM

The PV is ok...i like how Ayu looks and how they r all having fun but it's been done before..and i like PV's that have a story and meaning...i really wanted to see something new but this isn't...
I also found it kinda bouring after a while...

It wasn't bad though...It was a simpol...cool (i don't think i would be watching it over and over again though like Blue bird

)

I actually like her hair here

I like how we made this big hype about team ayu members being in the PV and they barely focused on them. This PV was a complete snooze fest for me. It was like watching a performance for Hey x3 or Music Station. Hell......at least Sparkle and MW had something to look at, even if she did make dumb faces. I'd take those over this one any day. However, I guess it did fit the song's mood, which is a plus.

Still, I miss the days of ayu PVs that were artistic and had deep meaning, instead of just "look pretty for the camera". It sucks because I really love the song, but oh well, I guess we cant have everything. Maybe the next PV will be a hit.

EDIT: Sorry I misunderstood, thought the PV and covershoots were in Bali.

The PV was shot in japan, not in Bali.
And they were showed in the video a lot of times even if most of it was ayu (naturally).

These were filmed in Japan.

Bali was for the covers and some other photoshoots.

Yeah. It was like a concert. I don't like PVs where they have the singer just singing. Plus Curtain Call and Next Level had interesting aspects about them--she wasn't just standing on a platform.

Endlessoul · #51 1st August 2009, 01:17 AM

I really think she has been used to her live style - even makes her PV as a live - I don't like it that much. A little plain and boring. If only there were more outfits and scences.

I misunderstood when I first read about the covershoots and PV. I thought they were both in Bali.

Still, these people did take the time out of their lives to come and they were barely in it. Bali, Japan, wherever, the whole thing seems like a total waste on their parts.

are you kidding me? as if it was a chore to come visit ayu and shoot in her new PV, please. these aren't just random people they're TA members who obviously love ayu and were probably happy to just be there.

emi♡ · #54 1st August 2009, 01:26 AM

^that's true. Everything you guys are saying is true.

But for me, at least, it was disappointing not to see more of the fans, especially when Ayu wasn't doing anything that exciting anyway.

I'm not saying I wouldnt have been happy as hell to be in the PV, but they barely even got a close up of the teamayu members! You can't really call that being in a music video if you can't even see them. I would've expected a little more than that. And you don't know those people's lives. It may have taken a lot to drop everything and come do this, diehard fan or not.

EDIT:

@ayumisrael: Hey maybe they don't think its a waste. That's excellent as long as they're happy. I know if I was there, I wouldn't be too happy to not see many members in the video, but I wasnt. I'm sure if I was there I would have enjoyed the experience just the same. If they wanna support the video that's great. This is all just my opinion, no one else's, seeing as how i'm not in teamayu and can't speak for them. I'm just giving my thoughts on the PV.

zyoeru · #56 1st August 2009, 01:30 AM

^ Neither do you. They probably were happy to be there. They entered a lottery, they would have known whether or not they'd have been free... LOL

I don't think they themselves feel as if it was a waste.
The PV of Sunrise is #1 most downloaded on rechochoku and Sunset is #2 for 2 days already.
Most of the downloaders are probably from Team ayu and ayu fans besides the general public.

If they would feel it's a waste I highly doubt they would download them and support it. Also non of the fans that were there seemed to complain about it in blogs and stuff. They were more excited about the experience if anything.

If you would be right you can trust them that they wouldn't pass it so easily.

Ayumiko · #58 1st August 2009, 01:35 AM

There's 300 TA members in the pv...as if all of them will have a close up shot of their own face in the pv..which is less than 5 minutes long.

I'll be happy if I could take part in the pv even if I'm no where to be seen. Its the experience.

truehappiness · #59 1st August 2009, 01:36 AM

"Oh look there's my hand! OH MY GOD!"

They're in Sunset too, btw, haha.

Okay well go back and read my edit. I'm just posting MY opinion about it and I don't speak for anyone in teamayu. Honestly I would have been very happy to have the experience of being that close to ayu. Anyway the PV is done so us going back and forth about this isnt gonna do anything.
