  Hiya, I'm back and I just completed my second AMV. I have really worked hard on this one.
  Its about more than 10 hours of working over 4 months. The concept was there in my mind
  but I was pushing the time to get this right once. So, I ended up making this video as
  an attempt to fill in the mistakes that I made in the first video.
  
  This video is a part of a series composed of two AMVs. The theme is Horror and as the way
  I make videos, I have made up a story of my own with this AMV. Not too much to be said
  but I think anyone who likes fast sync and good music will love this video.
  
  I will release the second part soon if I get a good response on this one. Not many videos
  have been made for this game and I think not many horror AMVs are out there. So, go
  ahead and take a look and leave an opinion if you feel like it ;).
  
  Here are the lyrics for the video:
  
  BEFORE I'M DEAD by Kidney Thieves
  
  Moon hangs around
  a blade over my head
  reminds me
  what to do before I’m dead
  night consumes light
  and all I dread
  reminds me what to do before I’m dead
  
  Sun reclines, heats my mind
  reminds me what to leave behind
  light eats night and all I never said
  reminds me what to do before I’m
  
  To see you
  to touch you
  
  Epochs fly, reminds me
  what I hide, reminds me
  the desert skies
  cracks the spies
  reminds me what I never tried
  the ocean wide salted red
  reminds me what to do before I’m
  
  To see you
  to touch you
  to feel you
  to tell you
  
  The sun reclines.... Remind me
  the desert skies.... Remind me
  the ocean wide salted red
  reminds me what to do before I’m
  
  Recommended Listening Environment:
  
  Visual Environment:
  Player: Intervideo WinDVD 6/7 (Due to the many things present in the this player, its a must e.g. Progressive Scanning, Audio Enhancements etc.)
  Codec: ffdshow (I've seen that when a corrupt Xvid or ffdshow plugin is present on your system, it lags the audio and the video moves forward)
  
  Audio Environment:
  Speaker System: Headphones (Many of the syncs and editing goes meaningless without a good listening environment.)
  Player: Winamp (yeah its an audio master's dream player)
  
  Mood:
  I made this video out of a dark mood and someone who wants to enjoy it to the maximum should be in that mood. Darkened room and if you feel like it, silence and some great audio equipment, which has a nice Woofer. Yeah a big screen always helps...
