Air: Sunshine on the Bay
This is a relatively slow-paced, pleasant vid whose main purpose is to showcase the beautiful scenic shots of Air, with an emphasis on the incredible sunset scenes.
The plot, such as it is, revolves around Misuzu talking about her dreams of flying, and her sense that there is another her up in the clouds. Therefore, there are several scenes with lip flaps, but there isn't any other action going on in those clips, and if anything they act to remind you of the plot.
Since I wanted this to be a somewhat upbeat vid, I stayed away from any mention of sickness, though there is a scene which refers to the loneliness of the characters.
There isn't a lot of movement in the vid, compared to your typical amv, but almost all of it is synched to the music. Head movement, bowing, seagulls flashing by in the foreground- all of it is synched to something, beginning with the pace of Misuzu's steps in the opening.
So, if you're looking for an Air vid that just might leave you with a smile on your face, give this one a try.
Audio notes: The song is a cd rip brought to you at 514kbps.

Wow...
Something about this video really moved me, I think it may be because it was very different and unexpected. I really liked the atmosphere you set throughout the video. Actually, while watching this I forgot about all the stress of the day. It's the type of video that is heavily synced to mood rather than beats (although when you did decide to beat sync I really enjoyed it). It made me feel as light and airy as a feather.
Stunning visual and audio quality too. It was the the first thing I noticed.
This is really different and soothing... and everything you said it was in the description. I loved it! Beautiful work, WesW.
