• Comments: Best "fun-romance-action" video on connichi 2006
  
  After my failed attempt in making a sentimental drama amv last time I wanted to make and action video again. But I wanted to make something less serious and I had the DVD’s of Aquarion available and it was a fun show doing the typesetting and karaoke so I thought my not. The next part was finding a good song. I spent a lot of time finding the right song. I wanted something upbeat and something that I could do a fun video with but also something in the style of aquarion. After a while I was almost going to use a other song but then I was at a friends place and he had this song playing and I was like yeah this song I can use for it. So I borrowed his cd and start editing to it.
  
  The first part was more like a test but it turned out very nice and tweaked it some more.
  When I made the beginning and I was using the Apollo and silvia scenes. And I though; yeah there are a lot of fun interaction between them, let’s do a amv about them.
  
  The connichi deadline was coming closer and closer but my vacation deadline was coming closer even faster because I arranged that very late so I had to speed up my work a bit more. After I finished it I was not satisfied with the ending. I just putted in some mecha fighting because I was out of time. I fixed that after my vacation and some minor bugs that I noticed later on.
  
  I think I wanted to do to much and I was never satisfied with my work but when I looked at it after my vacation I thought that I looked pretty good. And with the adoptions I made after it even looked better.
  
  But I want to thank Warheart for his beta testing because he showed me some crucial scenes what didn’t look smooth and didn’t fit right.
  I want to thank mahout fansubs for there support and pointing on me for use less spoiler scenes then I did before. Also thank them for the dvds I could use.
  Thank Niotex for just being there. We dutchies have to support each other.
  
  I think for my first h.264 encode it looks nice. I first wanted to release a 832x468 version
  But the file size was suffering with that size. Anyway If anyone doesn't know how to play the mp4: get cccp (www.cccp-project.net)
  
  Have fun watching it.
