==========

This AMV was a proof of concept prelude for a longer edit that never happened. I believe it would have transitioned into a Hello (by Evanescence) AMV, as I had written a scene-by-scene storyboard for that song's lyrics.

My key memories for this AMV, relate not to the video itself but mostly to what resulted in its existence. This AMV was edited during a long car-ride to an irksome destination. As there was no internet or cellphone service, I was limited to media on the laptop's HDD, cheap headphones to hear audio, and the device's battery life for editing time. With these resource constraints, this edit may have my most efficient turnaround - no more than 1.5 hours total.

Short and silly GMV.

I had been experimenting with picture, animation, and live action edits at this time. Therefore, video game footage was a reasonable next step. However, the in-game recording feature resulted in frequent frame rate drops. I'm not certain anymore if it was the computer hardware or recording software that was not up to the task.
