Prologue - The Prison (LOTR / Les Mis)

Lord of the Rings crossed with Les Misérables! The FIRST VIDEO.

After nineteen years in a hellish prison, Valjean (played by Aragorn) is released on parole -- by Chief Inspector Javert (played by the Witchking, who gives him the ominous warning to never forget his name or what Javert represent: the Law.



NOTES:

1. This video is the first in the entire LOTR / Les Mis series I will be doing. It's a huge project, converting Lord of the Rings to Les Misérables, but I'm quite enjoying it and I hope you do too!

2. This is actually a 12-minute video, but I had to split it up. The next part will be uploaded immediately!

3. As you can see, this video is unlike ANYTHING I've ever done, with the tone and visuals. I tried to make the prison the last place you'd ever want to be, filled with misery enough to make you cringe! It was really different, picking out the pieces of footage that normally I never go through while making videos (eg. caverns of Isengard).

4. All the shots of Aragorn were chosen very carefully. For instance, I never wanted him to look clean and someplace peaceful. (I've always thought that what you choose to show makes an impact on the viewer psychologically, whether they realize it or not, LOL). And after Valjean is released, I wanted to show places with water, as if after leaving that terrible place, the viewer can breathe and relax as if the mind is also being cleansed with water.

5. Please rate and comment! I really appreciate it when people take the time to do that, and let me know what you think!
