• Comments: At long last, I have finally finished this music video. I'm looking through my folder with all of the video editing files and some of them are 'Last Modified' dated over 2 years ago. This is an idea that I've had for A. LONG. TIME. And I'm so happy that it's done. I just want to cry.. *sniff*
  
  [Details]: Like most of my music videos, I try to tell a story. I really can't bring myself to grabbing a bunch of random clips and throwing them against an audio track. While some of my videos focus on one or two episodes, this one spans the entire series of Chobits (since it's such a short series). I really tried to put more emphasis on the Dark Chi/Chi/Hideki relationship in the storytelling more than anything, although I think it might be hard to catch.
  
  [Audio]: This is my second Do As Infinity title. I had already had the song for a long time but it just suddenly dawned upon me one day that it would really work well with the Chobits' plotline. (This was possibly because I probably had just finished re-watching Chobits at the time. This happens a lot. For example, I finish re-watching the rurouni kenshin ova's and every song i hear after that for the next week I think would fit perfectly with the plot line.) But then I looked up the english translation for the song, and it surprised me to see that it followed along as well.
  
  [Techs]: I had a real frustrating time trying to squeeze 9 hours of plot into a 4 1/2 minute slot. I had only wished the song went on longer. The way that I planned it out in my head as I listen to the music seemed a lot more spacious than it actually was, but i'm content with the result. With the production time for this video being close to 3 years, there were probably months inbetween the little time that I took to get some editing done. The only thing that kept me going was the ending. I could clearly see the ending in my mind and it was the only thing that I wanted to do. It was my number 1 motivator, and I loved how it turned out.
  
  But having that motivater really seemed to rush me through the video. It's really fast in some areas, so much that it would probably require more than one viewing to take it all in, but that's good right? that means you like it right?... (that was my plan all along heheh)... I took into heart from what some commenters complained about my Inuyasha video (all of the pulsing - although it was a minority that really didn't like it) and tried to control myself this time.... I swear I tried....
  
  [Flaws]: *pouts* This video has no flaws. It's AMV.org and their size limit that puts a blemish on this video. My original quality video was almost 143k. In order for me to have met the requirements I had to let go of some of the quality. *sob* Another flaw may be that the video moves too fast.
  
  [Likes]: The ending.
  
  [Dislikes]: I really do not like watching the beginning. possibly because i've seen it, re watched it, edited it, and re watched it again for almost 3 years. It's annoying to watch, but if i can muster to survive through it just to get to the end, I'll do it.

  [Lyrics]:
  Itoshiku tsuyoku dakishimete somekaete ageru
  Hageshiku takaku moeagaru koigokoro yo
  I believe in desire
  
  Shizuka ni KAGI wo kakete toozakaru kutsuoto
  Muimi na yasashisa dake SOFAA de kanjite iru
  Sou asahi ga kite nani mo nakatta mitai ni
  Aenai jikan dake wo mata kizamihajimeru yo
  
  Yakusoku mo ima mo kimi ni motometai
  Dareka no nukumori wakatte iru
  
  Itoshiku fukaku dakishimete somekaete ageru
  Utsukushiku saku bara no you ni hakanaki mono
  I believe in desire
  
  Ima made ayamachi sae shirazu ni kita watashi
  Ima dewa kimi no mune de nemuri ni tsuita watashi
  
  Mayonaka no KOORU tomadoi kakusenai
  Dareka no kotoba ni obiete ita
  
  Ima sugu hayaku dakiyosete atatamete ageru
  Itsuwari no RINGU yori zutto tashika na mono
  I believe in desire
  
  Sasayaku koe to te wo kasanehanarerarezu ita
  Yorisou futari wa yoake wo nikunde ita
  
  Itoshiku tsuyoku dakishimete somekaete ageru
  Hageshiku takaku moeagaru koigokoro yo
  I believe in desire
  
  End.
  
  [All in All]: I'm so happy that it's done and over with! It was such a long and toiling process to accomplish but I did it! and it's done! so watch it! and then delete it! (cause it's just a waste of space)
  
  Thanks for reading :P
