  Ok this is my 3rd video I worked on. It's the first video I build using Adobe premiere. This video has no expression, moreover it should be an exposure of an insane mind. Like all my video so far it's based on text/lyricsync. The plot, if one can say so, is about the girl Lain who has no good relations to any other being. She is searching for her true self, losing herself more and more in a virtual world. She is also losing the control about her live. I hope that you guys will understand what I want to express here.
  
  I came to building this video, because I wanted to use some more complicated music in order to have the opportunity to use some effects in this project. I build the video during 2 weeks in my holydays. I have to excuse myself for the visual quality that isn't that good. I also don't think that I was able to manage a good effect use, but hey it's my first try.
  
  For the ones who "don't speak growl" here are the lyrics:
  
  I grant to you
  no privilege of person
  no sense, no self
  a denial of choise.
  It wants out
  so from all the little bits and pieces
  a simple case of lost and found
  a wicked new beginning
  I don't ever want to see
  it's the oldest trick in the book
  just like everything you always knew
  turned upon its very end and there is nothing left to be
  
  half a mind to say
  all the things that bother me today
  
  you better check if it's me
  in that coffin of yours
  or just the one
  the one you thought you knew
  
  ref: I am one
  who am I?
  no character
  to be lost inside
  
  a mind ins hard to please
  so wander aimlessly
  
  hands clenched in fists of rage
  can feel the frustration
  there's a part of me that cannot deal
  with the character I am forced to be
  
  a thinly veiled plan
  to lay your world afoot
  lost in community
  blind in belonging
  
  Is there really nothing more than this?
  The emptyness remains
  so put on your brave face
  and take the plunge again
  
  I am one
  who am I?
  No character
  to be lost inside
