You Never Have to Be Alone Part 3

Friday, February 6, Video Editing:

Mr. White: Now we're going to talk about manipulation within the frame.  What does it mean when a character walks away from the camera along the z-axis?  As in, walking away from the camera?

Random Class People: Um...something bad....?

Mr. White: Walking away from the camera conveys depth.  It can also show that the ( Read more... )

oh, so that's the meaning, it does convey what the story trying to potray, yeah, in the end, whatever we learn, we always applies it to the dramas we watch and vice versa...

aww, Coolio's gangsta's paradise is my fav!!! :D
*goes off to listen again*

Toma is happy i guess... haha, but however he poses, i cant resist his lips.. pouting lips... just pure love.

Applying stuff we learn to dramas helps us remember it better, I think. ^_^

That is a frikkin' awesome song. The lyrics are really poetic.

XD Toma's lips are hynoptic. They draw you in like a moth to a flame. Okay, I'm going to stop making stupid comparisons now.

Aww, thanks!

Isn't this part 3?? Have I missed part 3? :OOO
You sure love to keep people hanging, don't you? lol. And it's interesting how you wrote that it's Toma who turned debuting down. I had thought of that sometimes too. :) And can I poke you to post this in comms? The fandom loves a good fic. :D

I'm willing to take theories on this. ^_^ Yes, that means you, Rei.
YOU KNOW ME ENOUGH TO GUESS WHAT I WILL THEORIZE ABOUT THIS. *coughPichancough* xDDDD

Or... gasp maybe it's the Eita. :O NO. Scratch that. lolol.

THERE IS NO PART 3.

...yeahhh, this is part 3. I realized that after I posted. So you didn't miss anything. If I didn't keep people hanging, they wouldn't want to come back for more. Muahaha! Mmm, I dunno, maybe. I'll have to go back and find each post...

Of course I knew you would theorize! But what about Pi would make him smile? Pi not having work at the moment and being available?

You are soooo... idk. xD You make it sound like Toma's smirking because Pi has no work. lolol.

Let me title this: "The morning after" rofl. Or simply because this is the Feb issue = Valentines = Yama = Rabu? :pp

Hey but as much as I don't want to 'ship them with other people, TomaEita is making me giggly!happy lately. Even Satomi is a supporter. lol.

Ahhh, that's not what I meant! LOL I meant Toma was smiling because Pi wasn't so busy, and therefore readily available to hang out *wink* No, not smirking. He wouldn't smirk at Pi for not having work at the moment.

LOL The Morning After. It's a very nice "morning after," mehehe.

Aw, I saw where she said that and was poking fun at them for being all cozy together. Seems like Toma does that with someone on every drama, though.

Eh. Wait... wait... what happened to part 3? Did you lock it?! Sorry, I haven't been checking ANYTHING lately. Anyway, ooh! Toma gone! Where could he have gone off to? Well, it is less angsty..At least no one's crying yet or any emotional confrontation. (Not that there could be any, considering that Toma is nowhere to be found)

We never do the things we want to do. - True.

I remembered searching for the editor/conceptualizer of Last friends OBB when it came out. I loved it's representation from the red ribbon which bind them together to their positions at the end of the bb (Takeru facing Ruka who's facing Masami etc.) cups breaking, keys falling, coffee overflowing... Even Ryo's black tie which signifies him as the "black sheep" of the group.

I thought it was one of the best OBB's i've seen in Japanese dramas.

THERE IS NO PART 3.

No, this is part 3, lol. I accidentally mislabeled it cause I meant to post parts 3 and 4, but just decided to post part 3...plus it was 3:00 in the morning.

Agreed. The Last Friends opening theme is one of the best in years. It had such a cool concept with the red string of fate and so many powerful symbols and the shots meaning something about each character. I wish they had used it more than just a few episodes.

HE MUST BE DATING SOMEONE! Okay fine, so maybe not. But it's just wishful thinking. XD

Dating someone? Hmm, dating who, though? XD

Or maybe the photographer was just like "Smile a bit, Toma, for goodness sake. You're not emo."

XD I know, right?
He looks really cute in that photoshoot though. Being a skincare snob, I must say - his skin looks amazing. O___O I want gorgeous skin like that!

I don't think it does, either, but I'd say in the majority of cases. I always get the feeling of people walking away from the camera as "leaving." Not always forever. It also depends on the culture as well. Different cultures see things differently.

He was referring to what's called "classical" editing, which means the shots are done in a way that replicates human movement. Like, no fancy angles or weird cuts and if they are done, there has to be motivation. He explained it so much better. He was also talking about shots like that generally having deeper, universal meanings.
