• Comments: started two years ago this project is my greatest acheivement...
  
  The goal was to make a beatiful video that strays completely from the style of my previous work... and i hope i have acheived just that
  
  for those of you thinking not sentimental BtC again... well I picked out the song and anime (2+ yrs ago) specificaly so that it would be original becuase at the time i had been giving free opinions alot and kept seeing the same old stuff over and over and over... so i thought hmmm im going to find something nobody else is doing and do it... and so i did.. well little did i know that two years later it would be one of the more populare anime's in amvs and so it totaly ruined the whole premis behind my choices...
  
  i'd watch the vid first and then read this for its full effect...
  
  onto the technical side...
  the subtle effects you may not notice....
  the rest are more obvious and all the cutouts where done with masks from photoshop elements...
  right now i can only think of 2
  
  opening silent scene - it says the title of amv preview on the page
  
  1:21 - 1:24 - that flask used to be a violin,,, yeah figure that out.... lol
  
  1:46 - 1:47 - background was ocean before... i also adjusted color cast and added blur layers to correct lighting...
  
  2:19 - 2:22 - its true the songs cut short but thats not the only change... in the second draft of the video, the song went on for another minute and a half making it just under 4 minutes long... the original song is 4:15... i had cut out the middle bridge at 2:20 - 2:40... the end of this video goes out on a much quieter note then that part was originaly...
  
  2:22 - 2:22 the last tap was extended and blended with a quiet high pitched lull taken from the songs original ending
  
  and no i didn't use after effects on this, or any other works... im still in the stone-age with premeire elements and photoshop elements
  element means its a dumbed down and much cheaper version ($120 vs $1000 you do the math)
  and so i leave the rest to you... watch it...
  
  like these guys did
