Never Enough

Contest video of AMVNews: Big Contest 2012

"'Never Enough' is a song about friendship, sisterhood, and the perils of loving someone that takes more than they could ever give" - Michael Runion

What should I say? I guess the biggest inspiration for this video, as you may guess, was the song itself. The moment I heard it for the first time, I had already fallen in love with it. Watching the original music video along to it, was moving, heartbreaking, and yet so inspiring. I immediately had to think of NANA. There are some scenes that are so strikingly similar in the 'Never Enough' music video and the Anime, that it is almost surreal. There were many times while I was editing this, I was thinking: 'That can't be, this is a too perfect match.'

I had a lot of fun working on this, yet it was also quite stressful, due to me having to work 50 hour weeks for the past month. I struggled really hard to finish it in time, and still having it the way I wanted it to be, and I think it was worth it in the end.  I really wanted to touch people's heart with this video, as well as let some of my own experience flow into it. Nana's and Hachi's friendship is so strong, and yet it is never enough. It's an endless cycle of loving and hurting, when in fact all you want to do is be close to that person. And that, I think, is something very tragic, and worth every second of thought and time put into.

I hope you'll take something with you, of this video. Enjoy, and thanks for watching!
