∂σи'т єνєи тяу || Thinkwithportals.com Music Video Contest Entry

Please watch in HD if you're capable of doing so.

I may not win, but I'll be damned if I don't try.

HUUUUUUGE thanks go out to my best friend, Chelsea (SailorXTwilight) [The girl with dark hair in the black dress] for being my actress/test subject(and co-op partner), and to my band-mate Michael[guy on piano] for learning part of Exile Vilify and playing it for the video. :) If I win they both get a cut of the prize. Thanks of course also goes out to the wonderful people at Valve for the Portal 2 footage and the textless version of Lab Rat, and the wonderful The National for writing Exile Vilify and thus making this contest possible. :D

My first time every really directing a video of any sort, I hope you all enjoy it!

Especially the guys at Valve.

I hope you guys love it especially.

I hope you drop me a PM telling me I get a guitar and a box of who knows what.

That's how much I hope you like it.

It even has a sorta kinda storyline that I didn't even mean to put in there, it just sorta happened.

It takes place after the events of Portal 2. GLaDOS(as a human who likes wearing dark clothing apparently, played by me) struggles to get past the Chell incident and the decision to let her go. She misses the test subject and feels, as much as she'd hate to admit it, lonely. So she starts hunting her. (While singing of course.) Chell(stylistically played by my bestest buddy ever, Chelsea) can't seem to move past the Aperture incident, and still seems to feel GLaDOS haunting her every footstep. She remembers finding drawings on the walls telling the story of the person that had, effectively, saved her life. She worries about him and whether or not he is still alive. She can't leave Aperture behind. GLaDOS ends up sending Atlas and P-body to try to capture her, but to no avail. Chell is too quick and smart after testing for so long. Both end up unsatisfied, empty feeling, and lonely.

And Wheatley. Playing the piano. In space. :P
