JOURNAL: senshikoi (Thomas Rogers)

  • Hello World: I Won't Lose ~Haruka's Theme~! 2013-11-16 06:50:19 I was thinking my profile and video comments were getting a bit cluttered with the same information, so thought I might create a journal entry instead, to expand on what has been mentioned in the two.

    So as mentioned in my profile, I've only created one AMV to date, and that was sometime ago (2006 - 0_o was it really that long ago?); actually watching it back, some of my AMV seems a bit childish, and my regret is that I used Windows Movie Maker, so the quality is not that great in places, but couldn't find any other free movie maker at the time.

    To expand on what was touched on in my profile, that AMV is called "Nono - Watashi no Makenai", which is a cross between animation from Diebuster, and the music from a Japanese ending to Pokémon Advance Generation, it also features the ending to Diebuster episode 5 set to the credits, and features a bonus clip from all episodes as long as you hang on until after the credits; I'll upload it at somepoint, just need to download an ftp client.

    As for the AMV I've been thinking doing, I've been thinking about crossing Mai-HiME with Metalica for sometime, and recently I've been contemplating crossing School Days with Alice Cooper. I've also been contemplating some joke ones, which include Tsubasa set to the Stargate opening, and animation that better matches the lyrics ithe opening to the Pokémon 10th Anniversary.

    So, now that the profile's covered, we'll move onto the video comments; so for whatever reason, I thought "Diebuster" and "KAORI - Watashi no Makenai ~Haruka no Teema~" would work well together, and thought "ACKO - Stardust Tears" (Diebuster episode 5 ending) would work quite well as a credits song.

    I also thought I'd go for the complete set, by featuring a clip from all six episodes in the AMV, however this was only possible by featuring a clip from one of the episodes after the credits, as I didn't manage to find any other place for it; you could say it's my Easter Egg to the world - when I upload the thing.

    The scenes relatively follow the same sequence they do in the anime, but some scenes are out of place. The placing of the scenes themselves, with a bit of luck, and bit of skill, some of the action fell on the beats, which I'm quite proud of. I also subtitled it, with an available translation of the first part, and then freetranslation of the second part, adjusting it to make the translation more human.
