    The AMV was quite inspiring. But it wasn't enough to do justice to Tchaikovsky's.

    I haven't seen Haibane Renmei (and I wouldn't care to watch it) so I can't explain much about the story he tried to convey here. All I could see was a girl trying to come out from a pupa? Then she saw herself as an angel? She went to someplace, met some crows, somehow damaged her wings and became lost. Then she went down a well, slipped and fell, found a giant bird skull and became depressed she might ended up like the poor thing. Moral of the story? Befriends with people, not with crows. Crows makes you become stupid.

    Technically, this AMV seemed fine though in some areas I had issue. The scene in the middle where the angel fell down the well. The animation was made jerky I felt it was totally out of place. The rest were okay but nothing really dramatic.



    Final verdict: 2.8/5

  • Status: Aurora 2005-07-17 10:36:51 I mentioned before that I need Beyond the Clouds footage for the project. Besides that, I need to find a suitable character to do lip-sync to Sharon Adel's voice (Within Temptation.) Originally, I was going to pick Reika Mishima as the singer but there wasn't enough footage of her in RahXephon. I may have to tweak the storyboard or result to another anime character. Could anyone suggest?


    Also, I plan to ask someone (maybe Aimo, Eisu or someone I know) to redraw lips for the singer character, or I just have to do it myself.

    I might start with Aimo because she's just so talented and polite last time I met at CF2k3. You can checkout her drawings at http://aimostudio.com/ 
  • To update, or not to update 2005-07-16 23:46:31 What could've been my site now:
    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v366/eek-1/localhost-0506.jpg

    This was made more than a month ago but after some thought I decided not to update just because its bishounen-ness and inapropriate for site like Insomnia Studios. Maybe I just suck at webdesign.

    I think the layout looks ok. The site name looks cool in that angle but the banner has to be shortened (because it looked horrible at 1024x768) to fit in more contents to the top. The menu icons were ripped off Tiggz's GT2 Blue that I've yet to acquire permission.

    My priority right now is to redo the site banner. Could anyone here design one for me? I don't mind freelancers if you can accept paypal.

  • Uncomfortable migration 2005-07-12 11:08:56 Well, working with Premiere Pro alone was unproductive, so I have 6.5 for doing transitions and film fx, pro for clip motion.
