The evolution of this music video is an interesting one. I saw Manie Manie (Neo Tokyo) at Ken Stacey's home (yes, the artist of Tempus Fugitive) and it impressed the heck out of me. A year or two later, after having listened to the Lost Boys OST to death, inspiration struck and I created an alpha version with two vcrs. This was way back in 89 or so. However, the video quality of that version sucked and I was not completely happy with it. A decade later, I have a G3 Macintosh as my non-linear video editing station and I lucked out by finding Neo Tokyo to rent so I could redo my video. With this better editiing system, I tightened up Little Sister to match it more to the lyrics, be fluid with the musical pacing, and give it the ghostly effect with the dissolves I've graciously used throughout the video.
My favorite segment in the music video is the final scene where the girl and cat watch themselves as the tv, them and the song fades / zooms out as the music video credits fade in Not many anime shows feature the perfect closing scene that can be used in an amv and I feel Labrynth is one of those shows.
This amv won the AWA7 recognition for Best Horror.
note: this video is available for dl for a limited time.
