Path of Burdenful Remembrance

I use Movavi Editor 4 Mac version (Equivalent to 16 pc Version) to edit the video. Before I begin i want to say that slightly heartwarming The way people figured out it was me doing the anon con. only slightly because having people figure out my identity during that competition was the opposite of the intentions but the fact people paid enough attention to my videos over the years to recognise it just from font is something on its self considering I do not have lots of awards or anything. (granted I do not understand how Verona Font is identifying which is why I did not think to change it (like I did the background of the credits) but still thoughtful.) now onto this video.

I decided to make a amv a personal look of looking at your self and your situation even when you feel you are at your lowest and finding where you stand in the world as you walk a straight line thinking about it all.
sometimes The path of getting through is a difficult one indeed with a lots and lots of burdens. definitely when you have to defence the World trying to find something and someones to care about again after The family you cared for deeply become a mockery of themselves, distorted/искаженный but recognisable as the past you try to and told to forget. and the light might just be the hope to get you to where you are you wish to end up.

there are many surprises along the way from both the people you come to know and a visitor of the 'same eyes'. (yep that's how they said in the the show.) sometimes the light is the the people that stay with you in the darkness after you lost what you cared for deeply (With the ones you care for in the past became something unrecognizable). as you remember the sacrifice of your father to save you and The path this character now takes to save the world from destruction wanting to forget the past. The past find him in both expected and unexpected ways and maybe he will save the world he cares for but at Great cost to his person. and in the end when you look back at all all you can just put your head down knowing "it's over at last" but wonder what did that Crystal give you The ability to finish it but the Crystal did take away the Brother you know. this is a story of remembrance and burden.

like I mentioned above this is also more of a personal character profile thing then a statement on anything. I decided to go to personal route rather than put all the action scenes I can find. I also try to make it accessible to people who did not watch the show but that proved to be a big challenge considering I chose this song based on two quotes was said in the song that were exactly said in the show. there is a little romance mixed in there but not The strongest area in there. I have a feeling I might visit the show again for another amv but through it all for some reason I just can not let this one go even though it was likely more trouble than it was worth.

they are 3 song titles listed, I will explain. in the darkness is the light is the main title. y'know is used for a connecting bridge in one of the verses during music editing. (for non-music people it basically means it makes a part of the song that was somewhere else originally and The thing that came after The thing that was cut off sound like all of it was always there.) pit vipers is whether 'this is what you make me feel line' came from and The 'end track' (more description on that would spoil anything).

in terms of the song choice the main reason I chose this song was that I actually heard quotes from the show (coincidentally of course) in the songs lyrics. a good chunk of the second verse actually also double as quotes. that is also why I have hard subs on this video in one Quick part.

I edited a line of this song basically removing it in the final chorus verse that was also in the 2 verse of the so weird TV show cut of the song (too then add other stuff in its place). I made quite a few drafts on how I would explain this here (Mostly for people who may click on this five years later rather then people who are reading now.) but I just decided that it is pretty self explanatory why a line that uses the word "surrender" was taken out.

I want to make it clear I thought hard on the subtitles thinking if soft subs would work but this is the only circumstances in which I am sure in that this single part is necessary for the concept of the video. (I will not make a habit of it.) this is because soft subs i made would not work in this case since I want the subtitles to be from the disc to be clear I did not make them but that both sources used the phrasing as it is being said in the song. (considering the slightly unusual phrasing choice that was not clarified later in the show from what I gather.) (The quote was not used in the English version (I am not sure if they used it in the Polish or Spanish but i did not check since I think they are based on the English script not Japanese.) or I would have use the audio.) I was considering another song that was going good (but was also found two days before my decision.) but a event that happened back in April (I went nearly blind (unable to read was able to see enough to walk around.) for about 15/20 minutes.)) luckily nothing like that has happened in the last few weeks. but made me realize that I had to finish it and I thought this was the nearest done.

I need to be very clear I have definitely edited the black bars extensively to make it palatable. anything that was from a DVD basically have to be edited to not have black bars. The Japanese disc ripped with lopsided on one side (The pond one I kept as is and the only exception since the cues were so elaborate). I have spent at least over 5 hours on cropping alone (no exaggeration 2/3 h on one day 3 h The next.) (they would likely be multiple times which I did not time in the middle as I was doing other stuff.) and on a Final touchup day about 2 weeks later The day before release after I wrote this whole thing up for 3h (8.30pm-11.30pm) I because I respect the preferences of the contest. but there are times where I considered that it could be more jarring to have two scenes be pictured differently in the middle of an action (like the hallway changing shape as they are walking.) I personally would say the the black bars are more jarring for a viewer but that would be against the contests preference. but I am not a miracle worker or a robot i can click the mouse slightly off or have something slightly unequal. I between 100 to 200 scenes manually (in which I dragged a corner of the square to fit the borders of the video for each cut even cuts in the same scene which is why some of the scenes might be missshaped in certain areas because they were cropped separate.) this is because I did it after I was done editing the video and The video editor is not even exact and other then the Final day when I already got rid of a lot of the extra clips which still kind of had a 5 second load (not every project has a load time but bigger ones do. I put stock ups at the end of my videos sometimes over 8 hours in length and has been used for many times which is why I keep doing it. (A three hour clip in the gallery is not that useful in my opinion with my work style).) 30 seconds per edit (when I timed it it was 28.9 seconds) but the autosave has saved me too this presentation crashing quite a few times to give a a fair perspective and I have a feeling it would still taken a long time to crop even if I did not have this auto save length. The poster was from the Tekkaman Blade laserdisc Disc 5 Front Cover Art. With a little Photoshop assistance to add Milly in.
