• Comments: This took a fair amount of time to make, and there are still a few things I wish I had been able to do that I don't have the experience (or just plain skill) to do.
  This video really became easier after I saw Ashyukun's "Bouncing Through The Years".comments, in which he talked about how he altered speeds of clips in the video. This really opened my eyes to a whole new WORLD of video edit-ness. Now I could fit the clips to the time I needed, not fit time to the clips. Since then, editing has been easier, and MUCH more fun. So thanks, Ashyukun!
  This originally, back in the beginning of the imagination stage, was going to be an homage to Koopiskeva's "Waking Hour", a video which certainly I consider to be his best, and quite possibly THE best.Unfortunately, it didn't happen quite as planned.
  This song is one that is special to me, even though I dislike the Goo Goo Dolls overall. It stands for life. I know the song is originally (supposedly) about a girl who dies of a cocaine addiction. But to me, this song is one I listened to frequently while stuck in the hospital for a long period of time. So this song, to me, stands for that, and for the people I met during that time, and for being healthy again, and just about growing up, and many other things that can't be expressed. But that's why I felt it goes with this anime, an anime about growing up, about getting sick, about friends who pull you through, and about the fact that life goes on, and for the most part, it's pretty all right. This is why the video is In Memory... and why it is dedicated to the friends who got me through those trying times.
  The clips are not precisely in movie time-sequence, but they are in a sequence that feels right. I feel there were a few mistakes I made, but I don't feel that clip placement is one of them.
  
  And yes, it's supposed to go to a dark screen for a couple seconds.
  
  Please leave me a comment!
