Sanzo/Goku music video, whut

[soliandxpyne]

Ahhhh, things have (clearly--or, uh, not) been crazy for me and Xpyne since the beginning of the year, and we haven't been around a lot. D:

UNACCEPTABLE.

Anyway, I had been wanting to try my hand at making a music video for Sanzo and Goku for a while, but needed the proper motivation. Mosh's Project 39 gave me the appropriate kick-in-the-butt, but

Oh my gods, ladies! That is brilliant! The evocative artwork and words of Minekura-sensei leave me breathless, and you have captured the sentiment well with this video.

Technically speaking, it is fine piece of work as well. I liked the variety of techniques (matching the words to the scene 'scream' at .28) and the moving foreground, still backgrounds and visa versa.

Thank you ever so much for sharing!

Sanzo and Goku are such fascinating character studies and, put together, their dynamics become explosively interesting in my brain!

Thank you very much! :DD We put a lot of work (blood, sweat, tears, etc lol) into this, and it makes it all worth it to see it so appreciated.

I do think this project enabled me to take a big step in improving my photoshop skills, too--even Xpyne was impressed by my idea and execution for some of those foreground/background moving-and-still frames, haha.

(Also, if you enjoy Saiyuki character studies, I have to do another self plug here and suggest you check out the Myers-Brigg Personality Type posts I've been working on for the boys. I've only gotten through Gojyo and Hakkai so far--though now that I've finally finished this video, I can get back to work on Sanzo--but I think you should find it pretty interesting!)

Awesome! :D

I missed the part at first where you said you drew some of the pics, and when it got to THAT SECTION I was like "Wait, Minekura drew Sanzo and Goku getting naked?! AND GOING AT IT??!!"

Anyway, very nice, I liked it a lot. :D

LOL, looks like it's "success!" for Xpyne--her goal was definitely to try to trick people into your exact reaction. XD

Very glad you enjoyed it! <3

AMEN, SISTER! THAT'S THE KIND OF THING WE WANT TO SEE! :'D

Oh, it came out fabulously! I've been dying to see it since you first told me about it. It was seamless and all of the pictures were so appropriate. And the song was beautiful! (And you were right about it fitting them.)

It's really hard to believe that it's your first, even though I know that it is. You did it so well and I know what it was sooooo worth the blood, sweat, and tears that went into it. ♥

And Xpyne did an AWESOME job with her add-ins. XD You can tell that she worked hard to get them Minekura-esque, which made me soooooo happy. ♥!

Beautifully done and so worth the wait. And I have a vote for it being up on Sendspace so I can download it! :P

When you get some free time or something, text me and maybe we can talk. I miss yous! ♥

[soliandxpyne]

PREACH IT! ♥ ;ヮ;

Thank you so much!!! ♥ We've been looking forward to your reaction :D :D

Soli: Finding a song that I could work with took forever, but it ended up working. Haha, and yay for anal retention. Glad you couldn't tell what a n00b I am. >:d

Xpyne: Oh ho ho. That I did. My goal was to try and trick people a bit. Betcha can't find all the images I added in parts that were missing due to inconvenient word bubbles. \(｡◕ヮ~｡)/~♪ Happy to make you happy, m'dear!

Soli: Done and done. Yesss! I miss you, too.

[eyesofshinigami]

You better believe it. :D

Fweee! That makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! ♥

*squees* I'll be free tomorrow night, Monday night, and Tuesday night. :D Then Wednesday is my birthday! *dances* So just let me know what's good for you. :)
