It's okay, go ahead and get the snickering out of the way now--that's everybody's initial reaction. That, or "huh?" But I'd had this idea rattling around in my head for about 3 years, and it was finally ready to come out. This video was a real departure for me--almost entirely abstract, no lip synch, no storyline. Just Kusanagi and her inner universe. I was pleased with the final result, and utterly gobsmacked when it won Judges' Best in Show at Tekkoshocon this year.
This one hit me like a lightning bolt while listening to my iPod. It was the ring imagery first, of course, but then the rest of it just fell into place. I did this one right after Motoko flow; I think the abstract angle of that video helped me approach this one in a much less linear way than a lot of my previous vids. I certainly got more creative with how I layered clips here than I ever have before. I'm really proud of this little video and I enjoy it a lot.
As always, comments and critique are welcome.
I highly reccomend it to everyone.
