• Comments: I've been wanting to do a good FMA vid for a long time, but havent found the right music for it. Well I was watching The Prince of Egypt and the beginning just jumped right out and screamed FMA to me. It may seem like an odd match, but that was what I was going for: something different.
  
  This is mostly a serious vid and deals mostly with Ed and Al and their relationship with the 'gate' -as I call it. There is a lot of stuff also with Izumi and Wrath as well as the Homunculi and some stuff with Scar and Ishbal and the military. Some favorites did not make an appearance, i noticed later, but i could not find a place for them in this, sorry.
  
  I followed a specific structure, and I will explain it for anyone who is interested to know how the vid is set up.
  -We start out with the Elric brothers and the loss of their mother along with the ressurection atempt and the first appearance of the gate.
  -Next we go onto Scar and Ishbal and the Military and the oppression of the people.
  -We move on to Izumi and her child, which becames Wrath. This is another showing of the gate, sometimes referenced in the vid as the 'river'.
  -Next of course is the Homunculi because of the introduction of Wrath and now the others. We see that they really want to be delivered by Dante to become human.
  -Next up we have the Ed and Al sacrifice for eachother at the gate. I believe I match the gate with 'river' again here. I thought it was nice.
  -And we have a small glimpse of Izumi again with Wrath as their story is wrapped up.
  -We see then many shots of the gate or how to summon it, and Ed and Al's interaction with it. I play up the arm visual a lot here too -for Ed.
  -Then there's quiet and it's Ed and Al's childhood and their mother.
  -We end hopeful that they will see eachother again soon maybe and they say their wishes to eachother.
  -Last is scenes from the movie where they activate the gate to travel to "Shabala" -or as I paralleled to the promised land.
  -And we're done!
  
  I wanted to get as many storylines in there, and hope I didn't get anyone confused or mad that some people didn't appear. But I believe it is really good as it is and I enjoyed making it and it's one of my fav vids I have done.
