<s>The Liquid Dream ProjeKct:</s> ProjeKct Life:
In 1998, three musicians from Dream Theater, John Petrucci (guitars) Jordan Rudess (keyboards) and Mike Portnoy (drums & percussion), teamed up with famous King Crimson bassist, Tony Levin, to form "Liquid Tension Experiments."
In 1999 they recorded their second album. The epic centerpiece was a 17-minute progressive rock composition entitled "When the Water Breaks." The name came from the unplanned departure of Jhon Petrucci when his wife went into labor.
”When the Water Breaks”
This song has something for everyone, from powerful bass and drum lines to soft mournful guitar solos. Not your average repetitive techno track, it flows quickly from one section to the next in a ever-changing musical soundscape. Because of it’s length and complexity I have decided to open up the project to other editors in an attempt to give it the visual treatment it deserves.
This project is not a whimsical daydream. I already have several dedicated editors who are committed to making this video a reality, so you should have no worries as to whether the project will be completed.
The sections are:
0:00-1:50 Introduction ------------------------Otohiko
1:50-2:14 Title, prelim credits.----------------pen-pen2002

16:25-16:45 Conclusion------------------------pen-pen2002**
*This one has some subsections. I would like it to be a charicter profile section. 6:30 charicter 1 7:09 charicter 2, 7:29 charicter 3, 7:48 charicter 4. Kalium already has Charicter 3.
**I will edit this using sections from all the submisions.
Right now this is forming up to be the first plot based instrumental MEV. Each editor will focus on a momentous event in their charicter's life. Once they are all put together it will be a tribute to the diversity and tenacity of life.
Spots are still available, but not for long!
That’s all for now.
