Title: More Then Anime Can Offer
Source:Densha Otoko (Live Action)
Audio: SwitchFoot - Meant To Live
Format: Xvid - Lame Compressed Audio
Size: 56 Meg-ish
________________________________________
This videos creation came to me suddenly
somewhere in the middle of the second
episode of the series. This switchfoot
song just keept filtering though my brain
over and over again. So, I said "I must be
on to something here". Then I figured
if I'm ever going to be a real editor
when I exit college. I need to work with
living footage. Now this is my first real
attempt to make a live-action music video.
This video will probally have more meaning
if you actually watch the show first. For some
reason I really felt like doing this..Still
don't know why... I get like that alot..
But, I believe.. I presented the visual
clues obviously enough. Anyway, I hope
you enjoy it.. Sorry about the huge file size
and yes I'm not putting this on local but
instead will list a direct connection link
below.

Side-notes:
1)All the footage for this video is from just
episode one.

2)Also, There is a minor video giltch where
she hands him the cleanix, thats intentional.
Wanted to give the scene a sense of suddeness.

I kind of liked it. Seeing a music video like that was lilely odd, but it was interesting. Good job on editing, I thought the theme fitted correctly with the character. Poor guy of him. The end however felt out of purpose, with the rock band and the guy in the middle of the crowd, but i think you had a reason for this.
And btw, that show seemed like a parody, but eeeeh everyone's taste is different

Yeah the show is a parody and the video is sorta a parody of
a parody. The idea was to highlight some of the problems with otaku
that some are lost too far into there obession and need people to
drag them back out. Also, to show that good ideals dosn't always
equal good results. Then I said "I can also make this a romance video"..
Basically alot going on their

. Yeah the rock ending was to parody
the orignal video and to show that everyone was behide him.
