  Warning!! If you haven't seen up to the end of episode 133 this vid contains MAJOR SPOILERS!!!
  
  This is a fan-trailer using the soundtrack of a trailer for Batman Begins and footage from Naruto. Obviously, Naruto is "Foxman".
  
  Lipsynch: Just one spot with Jiraiya. Looks good to me, but barely worth mentioning.
  
  Concept and exicution: I had been looking for a trailer to use for a fan-trailer for a long time; then I found the Batman trailer by accident and immediately thought of Naruto. Keep an ear/eye out for sound FX matches. I took quite a while making sure they matched.
  
  FX- Lot's of stuff you prolly wouldn't notice unless I told you or you've memorized the anime REALLY well. I'm only gonna mention the less noticeable stuff:
  
  00:07-I tried to use the slow motion here but it looked terriblely jerky so I took each movement and faded it inot the next. Made it look much smoother.
  
  00:17- Added the Kyuubi flame to Naruto's eye.
  
  00:22- Replaced Sandaime with Yondaime so Yondaime could play Naruto's father (I think he really is Naruto's dad, but that's a debate for the forums ^_~ ).
  
  00:60- This part drove me nuts! I spent nearly a week trying to find someone backing up while looking scared and yelling. It figures that what I needed was in the first ep the whole time. Now, the effect comes in 2 ways here. Naruto was added to the scene [i]and[/i] I had to add the motion blur effect to him frame-by-frame, which took nearly a half hour each because of the multiple steps it took to achieve the desired effect.
  
  01:05-*cough* I made the logo and words for this and the end credit plate. I think they turned out okay, but due to computer problems I was limited in my choice of photo editors, so I could quite get the effect I wanted.
  
  I hope you guys enjoy this vid. And please review. Even if the review is short, it still makes me happy. And I always reply when someone reviews my vids (Even if it takes a while sometimes). Sometimes you might even get a review in return. :)
