• Comments: This IS my very first Inuyasha Video. Yesh, Inu is on my Top Favourites in Anime. I, unlike many others, am personally not fond of shouting 'INUYASHA IS MY FAVOURITEST-EST ANIME IN ZE WORLD!!!!!!!!'.....but he's pretty high up there. Kinda surprising this is the first one I've made since i've had the dvd's for so long.
  
  [Details]: My main objective with this video was to focus on the back-and-forth relationship between Inuyasha and Kikyo & Kagome. I'll say it now, I'm not siding with Kikyo. I'm rooting for Kagome and Inuyasha all the way, but this song was perfect to emphasize on Kikyo's relationship with Inuyasha, before, during, and after both of her deaths (she dies twice, remember? xD....oop! spoiler! o_O) But I must admit i tried to make Kikyo look as evil as possible... ahaha
  
  [Audio]: I guess I would be the first to use this song on AMV.org (unless someone is uploading one during the time i'm writing this *** UPDATE*** AND WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT. SOMEONE ACTUALLY DID XD) When I heard this song for the first time...... you know how us AMV makers have epiphanies when we find a good song that we must ABSOLUTELY make a AMV out of it?.......yeah kinda like that. And besides I had to get this done and over with be for I got sick and tired of listening to it. No Rush.
  
  [Techs]: It took about 5 Days (a total of some 50 hours) to Rip/Edit/Render/Whatnot/Blah (seemed really short though o_O) I DID Rip every single clip from my own DVDs. So *pfft* :P
  This is a Fast Video. I think about the longest single clip is about 4.2 seconds. xD aha. My advice while your watching it is don't blink.
  Like in my previous video, Beneathe the Ever Flowing, I used digital effects to make it look like the Video was pulsing with the beat of the music, which is basically the skeleton of the whole video. In other AMV's i've seen with a similar effect, i've noticed that they use the same pattern over and over again, and i thought it kinda got boring. The way I did it was i mixed it up, Making it pulse in different places, more here, less there. That way it's more interesting. I find that if it's the same pattern over and over again, the viewer seems to not notice it as much the more times they watch.
  
  [Flaws]: Fwee....o_o I bought a new Video Editing Software, but it took my beautifully-ripped Video and rendered it into a sloppy mess. I order you all to NOT watch it in Full Screen. In Fact! I added a 320 x 240 version of the video under 'Direct Download' Watch that one. The Video will look crisp and clear. *nods* The smaller it is the better it looks. Now i shall go kick my self for not buying a better editor.....
  I think one of my Technical flaws not really putting any effort into the scenes where instead of syncing the video to the music beats, i sync it to the lyrics such as 'that's all you ever hear me say' and 'thanks to you' Not my best work.... fwee.
  
  [Likes]: I think my Favourite part I had the most fun time editing was 01:58-02:12. The 'Osuwari' Rampage was the part i was looking forward to the most during my epiphanies. I also Enjoy the ending credits xD
  
  [Dislikes]: I really didn't like the scenes at 01:26-01:49 it kinda felt as if it was just filling space. But I had to put it in to keep the story moving. And I guess it worth sitting through, since right after it is my favourite part xD

  [Lyrics]
  Here's the thing,
  We started out friends.
  It was cool, but it was all pretend.
  Yeah, yeah, Since you been gone.
  
  You're dedicated, You took the time.
  Wasn't long till I called you mine.
  Yeah, yeah, since you been gone.
  
  And all you'd ever hear me say,
  Is how I picture me with you.
  That's all you'd ever hear me say.
  
  But since you been gone
  I can breathe for the first time.
  I'm so movin' on, Yeah Yeah
  Thanks to you, now I get what I want.
  Since you been gone.
  
  How can I put it, You put me on
  I even fell for that stupid love song.
  Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
  How come I'd never hear you say,
  "I just wanna be with you."
  Guess you never felt that way.
  
  But since you been gone,
  I can breathe for the first time.
  I'm so movin' on, Yeah, Yeah
  Thanks to you, now I get what I want.
  Since you been gone
  
  You had your chance, you blew it.
  Out of sight, out of mind.
  Shut your mouth, I just can't take it,
  Again and again and again and again.

  End.
  
  [All in All]: It was a fun video to make. It's very up-beat and I think It explains what I wanted to explain quite well. Please don't sue me if my Video's flashing causes damage to your eye. If you don't like it, don't watch it. I'll just watch it all by myself. :P
  
  Thanks for Reading :D
