• Comments: This video was something I forced myself to start back in January of 2004. I've always wanted to make an AMV to a Goo Goo Dolls song. This was one of a few ideas I was kicking around, and so it came ot life.
  
  I completed about 50% of this video back in january... and then I let it lay dormant, until a couple days before AWA 2004. I finished up the remaining gaps just before flying out to AWA 2004.
  
  When I first watched Zaion, I was disappointed that it was only 4 episodes long. Given time, a more substantial story could develope. Regardless, that didn't stop me from making the AMV... it never does. =)
  
  Anyhow, my main focus with this video was on the 2 main characters, given in 4 episodes there wasn't much else to pay attention too. I just felt the song identified the relationship of the two main characters.
  
  It might not seem too obvious, but I did do quite a bit of re-amination and effects work on this video. So there are a number scenes in this AMV that are not quite the same in the anime; aside from some creative editing methods. I also added the titles in the beginning and end of the video; they a bit different in the series. So even it you don't notice the effects, they're in this video. I didn't feel anything required that type of attention in the AMV; but they are there, and there is more then a handful.
  
  Achivements:
  Ohayocon 2005, 2nd place for Sentimental
  
  [UPDATE 2005-02-21]
  When I went to upload the AMV, I got a message the server is full. So I will not be able to upload this AMV until there is room again. Hopefully we won't have to wait long for more room/drive space.
