Entered in category - DRAMA
I actually managed to finish something for once, who would have thought?
Oh well, here it is, finally a full video!
I put a lot of work into this one, but as you will notice the thing I focused on was the storyline. And the colours. I spent just as much time working with the colours as I did with the video itself. But I quite like how it turned out.
In the end you will notice a double effect on Aurora that was supposed to make her look ghostly.
This is my entry for Shade's (xNightshadex) Role Reversal crossover contest. Entered in the category DRAMA.
And for the storyline:
Pocahontas comes from the New World which has recently been discovered. Now everything she grew up to love is slowly falling apart. This is devastating for her and her people and thus the chief of her tribe sends her to England to avenge his people. Pocahontas is a very powerful woman, more of an enchantress.
And so she travels across the Atlantic. Shortly after arriving, she hides in the woods close to the castle and here she meets Aurora, the princess of England. At first the princess is afraid of this strange woman, but after working her magic Pocahontas wins her over and the princess believes she has found a new friend. Pocahontas on the other hand sees a way to avenge her people. But then she discovers that the princess has a brother, Phoebus. This complicates things, but soon Pocahontas sneaks into the castle where she seeks the prince out. He is immediately drawn her to and quickly falls under her spell.
But Pocahontas feels herself drawn to the prince in a way she never thought possible and suddenly doubt arises in her mind. But after seeing Phoebus refuse to sacrifice his own people for the greater good, she realises that the men in her country are not doing his bidding. But the refusal is frowned upon and the prince is hit by an arrow during an assault. The news of the prince's death reaches the princess who is devastated by her brother's death. What she doesn't know is that Pocahontas rescued him and has hidden him.
At this fragile state, Pocahontas seizes her chance and by magic spells, the princess' grief becomes the end of her. Now Pocahontas has avenged her country and still she has the love of the prince, as he will never know the truth behind his sisters' death.

Loved the vid!!! The ending was a little weird tho. What does Phoebus do after he finds out his sister is dead? He decides to make out w/ Pocahontas. Otherwise, great video XD

@TheNerdyCanuck What do you mean by the editing being weird?
And Pocahontas has had Phoebus under a spell from the start, that her thing. She gets things her way.
