Oto + Glass Eye (Amazing Nuts) + Porcupine Tree = EEEEE66666

Good evening hippies,
Two possibly-accurate thematic descriptions of this:
It's about a girl who's probably overdosed on some drug, and it has a very dream-like feel [and doesn't afraid of anything].
-AnimeNewsNetwork


In a strange and ever-changing world, where points of orientation shift and small realities of daily life appear threatened, a reasonable person might feel hopeless and despair. But hope is unreasonable. And love is greater than this.
-Robert Fripp
take your pick as to which one feels more accurate to you.

So I was weird and made another mood-oriented, relatively simple AMV. There is a depressing atmosphere, there are certainly angry bits, but I like to think of the overall tone of it as hopeful. It's a full-length serious video for which I used a 7-minute footage source (and actually tried to be coherent). It is also, as far as I am aware, the only video to music from Porcupine Tree's recently-released "The Incident", which is an album I've been increasingly enthusiastic about over the last few weeks. I claim no technical excellence or innovation, on the other hand I'd like to think I made something rather appropriate and something I enjoy. Your own mileage may vary, but thanks in advance if you do watch it!
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Porcupine Tree .... yes, do want!

Edit: Can't really find anything to complain about. Scene selection/editing/story just work together very well. At first I was going to ask you about the file size. Isn't it a bit big but meh, quality was good :amv:

You already know I really really like this video. While I seem to like most of the things you do I think this is at least tied with, if not my new favorite of yours over your She Was vid.

Your story is creepy, sad, and comes through great. You picked really great sources that fit together seamlessly. As for your editing for the most part it was really great, I still think it's going a bit too fast in some places but that could just be my personal taste and love of scenes that carry on for far too long. Your scene choices were great and really this is just an excellent, albeit a tad emo (<which is probably why I like it so much) dark romanticle vid. Since I'm going to op this anyway I won't bother getting too in dept here other than giving a high thumbs up and recommendation for people to watch. Really great work Oto :up:

I would generally subscribe to the girl+drugs hypothesis, though I do think it has it's hopeful moments. Videos like this are always good vs videos where "everyonedies lol" or "dyke spies." Though it may have been a rough trip for the girl there, the ending is nice....oh yeah, and I like the red swamp. Jesus lol'd for our sins, and she kinda figures that out. And the dude is like, let's hang out so you can stop taking drugs all the time.

This video doesn't afraid of anything. EEEEEEEEEE66666666666
