I know for sure the English Amazon has the first one (9 cents. Meh, price was right) but until it came, I didn't know about the language. Not sure if they have the sequel. If I do read it, I'll drop you a line though.
Well, the problem is that I can't read in German (or any non-English language). From my understanding, the first two books are the only ones translated, so I'll be out of luck reading anything beyond those two.
I tried to watch Felidae once... I wussed out on it... besides, I didn't want my parents to catch me watching it. o.o; Regardless of that, this is a neat AMV!
I've sorted out most of the problems, though it's still going a bit weird. I'm turning my attention to other projects (mainly MEPs) and an AMV tournament (starting tonight).
When I saw this a few days ago I thought, I'm gonna have nightmares tonight. Raggedstar+Felidae=disturbing. I think I did... I can't wait for the rest of it!!
5 stars as always. Although,and this is only pure suggestion, I would probably take out the extreme black part in the video. At some areas it adds a nice touch but at some parts you can hardly see what's going on.
Btw I know it's none if my buisness but please be a little nicer to your fans. Littlekitsune was just trying to help. If what she/he offered wasn't good then a simple thank you wouldn't hurt anyway >_> jus saying
Ya, I'm going to replace them with something dark but with brighter outlines. They looked perfectly fine in Vegas, but rendering killed the great feel of the effect.
And I wasn't trying to be mean. Didn't seem like Littlekitsune took it badly anyways.
As Lotus already said, I never thought this song would ever work with Felidae (even though Shado told me you were planning this one) but leave it to you to prove me wrong! xD I'm really looking forward to the finished product of this one, it promises amazing-ness!
On another note, I'm sorry I couldn't provide you with better quality clips. xD If you're still using those ones, anyway. Most computers are region-free, are you sure you can't rip a region 2?
i was reading about that, but apparently although they can read multi-regions, it can only switch between them a certain amount of times. Not sure if it affects ripping or just playing, but I'm going to ask someone about it. Possk is getting the DVD and if she figures out something, she's going to send it to me.
Hm, I didn't know it was limited. I have Hachiko Monogatari on DVD (region 3) and until I get my region-free DVD player I've been watching it on my computer. Maybe I should hurry up with my savings, then. o_O
Ha and I was going to ask if you planned on making an AMV with this song xD
Hm, never thought of Felidae fitting with this song but it really does work. I like the whole Pascal and Francis relationship you have going on there because even that in itself was disturbing, what with Pascal's intentions and all.
Yep, and like with TPATP, I'm of course the last one to hop on the boat and post a beta (compared to Shado and Blackfang, since we tend to do "conspiracy AMVs" frequently).
Ya, it didn't click to me right away either. I listened to it a few (hundred) times and then asked Shado if she could see the interpretation and she agreed.
I've never really done anything with the gradient map. Took me long enough to figure out how the bloody wave thing semi-correctly, but I'll try to fiddle around with it and see what it offers. Thanks.
Not many more. I can't say that there are many Felidae-only options out there (I have one more idea, but I can't upload it to Youtube due to Metallica being Warner). Still an option for being included in an animash though. Plus, since there are no region 1 DVDs, I can't rip myself better quality clips (a friend is going to try though and she said it's ok if I mooch lol).
You might want to look at "Two Steps From Hell". =) They have really epic instrumental/choir music. "TrailerXMusic" has one of their albums uploaded here on Youtube, and there are torrents if you like them.
Curious, have you used an effect with a saved setting called "Chalkboard"? I recall you using an effect that gave a clip a solid black look with faint white outlining and it looked almost invisible on Youtube. Just curious, since that's what happened in this AMV ("safe from pain, and truth" etc etc) and it's driving me insane. It looked great on Vegas, but run it through rendering and it's killed.
I sure did, although it's not called chalkboard on my version of Vegas - it's under Covlution Kernel and it's called Find Edges. As you said though, it is very similar to the effect you used in this AMV, but once it had rendered it's impossible to see - which is annoying because it's always very clear when Im working on it in Vegas :(
Ya, there's an English dub on Youtube. The DVDs are only region 2, so they won't work on North American DVD players. The first two books are also translated in English and can be found on Amazon/eBay cheaply.
The video will be completed the rest of the way. I just don't know when.
Oh gosh,I never tire of this song and its raw power. It justs sets that perfect macabre mood,and fits perfectly with the scenes from Felidae. I've seen the movie and it is incredibly disturbing,but fascintating still. I loved this,thanks for making it!
This looks like its going to be really well done.. great job so far. =D
You may not believe this, but the novel is more twisted than the film. There's a whole scene in the book that wasn't in the film, a dream sequence, which was.. extremely disturbing. o_o;
That was amazing. Aha. I can't say I liked Felidea, the idea was alright but the ending was meh in my pea-headed opinion, but I love the way in which you drew out the macabre of the movie and multiplied it like a ka-zillion fold.
Finish it or I will destroy you with... Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer...
Ya, the ending was weak in both the movie and book. I'll admit that was a short-coming.
Oh noez, reindeers!
Like I said, I've actually finished more than this. I have a huge chunk in the middle worked on (the base is there, but I need to make it prettyfuls), but uploading that would mean I leave a ugly, black/empty chorus.
...Holy crap. Now I must watch this movie. *searches for it* I can't wait to see the finished product. The song's haunting, and yes, it looks 'fucked up' in the best way. D:
What the hell? Why is this only 3 and a half stars? *Fixes*
Seriously, this is really good. 0-0 Loved it when you got to :26 onwards; the masking bits and Pascal lipsyncing "lay your head down child" was brilliant. Poor Francis. *pets* And the beginning was nice and creepy lol.
And you are evil for scarring me with your crazy insane descriptions of Elfin Lied lol. Evil I tell you! Just look at what you're making as an AMV. xD
If you've heard the song called "Counting Bodies Like Sheep To The Rhythm Of The War Drums", then that is kind of the remakeof this one. Pet came first.
Ya, I agree. Both have qualities that make them good. Counting Bodies has the better atmosphere, Pet has the better lyrics and doesn't drag on. ShadowSmiffDemon is actually combining the songs for her video.
oh wow now thats creative =o thats going to be a good mixture :3 its true that counting bodies does have the better atmosphere with all its wonderful beats and sounds :3 though i thought the lyrics were smiliar in a way o.O well i guess if u listen closely u can pick out the differences
Counting Bodies doesn't have all of the lyrics Pet has (for example, it doesn't have the line "Swayin' to the rhythm of the new world order and"). The beginning is almost identical lyric-wise since only a few lines were taken out.
the song fits Felidae perfectly...great job
