Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles - Prayer
After watching the new Robotech movie, I fell in love with the series all over again, and wanted to make a music video about it. There were two difficulties however...
One half of the difficulty and the lesser of the two, was making a video without ANY spoilers. At first I thought this was going to be extremely difficult. But then I forgot that most songs are only 3 minutes in length. The hard part came in ediing out the spoilers that littered the fight scenes.
In the end, all of my video takes place at the very beginning of the movie, so it wasn't as hard as I thought.
The second difficulty was finding music that fit. I know some of you are thinking that Disturbed probably wasn't the best choice. But it took me forever to find a song epic enough, and fast enough, to fit the action in the video. I also got the impression in the song that the singer symbolically is trying to prove himself in some way shape or form by displaying how he does his thing. Which is exactly what the humans are trying to do throughout the entire Robotech saga.
For those of you who are curious about the movie, or Robotech, I highly recommend that you should watch it. It's new enough to capture the minds of younger people who simply like todays anime. And its story is nostalgic enough to satisfy the old Robotech fans.
P.S. If there is some legal boundry that I crossed while using Disturbed's music or Harmony Gold's video, then I apologize. Just remember I'm not selling anything, or making profit. Hey, it's free advertising for god's sake!
EDIT: I just noticed a few glitches in the video. One is when the fighter leaves the bay it freezes. No idea how that happened. Another is a green flash. There were so many lights flickering in the video that my Windows Movie Maker got confused and went "Blaaahh!" Nothing I could do about that.
