All new and shiny!!

Hey everybody...
Well okay, I think I'll mostly write for myself anyway, but... nvm.
I've been quite busy with... reading! Yeah, acutally I put myself away for a few days and re-read two diffrent book anthologies *sigh* I can't help it, but if I start on it, I can't seem to stop myself, before I run out of books.
Today was a good day. My birthday present from my friends arrived - three new shiny books to pleasure my imagination.
Well anyway!I'm pretty happy, because I'll be able to release a new PV for my german PV group. We're going to put out AKB48's BINGO! - well we've got an english version of it too, but that version has to wait till my friends come back in a few days.
For now I'll stick around!
Anyway...
I finished our last dorama episode from Nobuta wo Produce today! Gotta have it ready for kumama when she comes back tomorrow, or she'll be sad *sob*. Can't have that, since she just wed this weekend! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! hahahaOther than that, nothing much has happend so far. I'm lazy like a cat and I still have to go to the library before I get another letter *sigh*. I hate it! I should finish this fucking stuff, so I can give all those books back and never bother again. That would at least solve everything.
My aunt told me she's going to stop by on wednesday, which means we're going to have a reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal big conversation about me going to America. Gotta make some cookies before that, and I shouldn't forget to buy some milk! Well for now - since I've finished what I wanted to do, I'll go to bed.
Oyasumi folks!

Chocolate Chip Cookies and merry feelings

Well, can you believe it, but it's a whole week after I last wrote to you! Darn! ^^ nevermind it. I've be pretty "busy", well acutally, I was ill and feeling like a dirty rug...
Didn't do much around the house unfortunately, but today I had the urge to make some cookies... So here they are, me first C0okies! YAAAAAAAAY!! I did them after an american recept I found online and they are great. I'd never imagined it.
Well till now, I've only read about those infamous chocolate chip cookies and one of my fav bands wrote a song about them, but I never had any!

Too bad I can't upload an image right now... Well, maybe the next time!
My whole flat smells like cookies! I hope I'll be able to go out today xD and not sniff the air the whole time ... hahahahahahah!!!
^^ Good day to all of you!

Birthday afterthoughts...

Yesterday was such a lovely Day! We hat lots of fun, even though we just went to eat out and watch a movie. Doesn't sound really interessting, but I had fun. I could decide which movie we're going to watch and I wanted to see "The Seeker" (Wintersonnenwende - Die Suche nach den sechs Zeichen des Lichts), based on a novel book series by Susan Cooper. Basically it's a book for kids, since the protagonist should have been an 11-year old boy, but in the movie he acutally was 14 years. Anyway, like most of the time, the movie wasn't that true to the book as it should have been, but still, if you didn't read the book before, the movie was quite fine. Lots of action and a catching story, even if I'm still not sure why they had that little witch in there. She explained nothing and was totally unessasary for the story itself - at least in the movie version.
Before that Philipp and I went out to eat some running sushi - all you can eat. God, I thought I'd die. My belly was really full afterwards, but it was soooooo yummy. I'm just unhappy that I didn't get to eat honied bananas. A shame!

After the movie Philipp brought me home and we ate some birthday cake, which basically consisted of strawberries! I'm still not sure where he got that strawberries from, I mean ... it's freaking october!!!
Anyway it was really yummy and the perfect dish before I went to bed.
Though, I didn't sleep till 8 o'clock in the mornin. I was really tired first, but later that evening I couldn't breath, and then I had a constant feeling that I'd had to puke -_- yummi!
Since I didn't feel well today I stayed at home and slept for quite some time with my little stuffed snake in my arms to cuddle.

When I woke up I was quite hungry so I went to get some groceries and check on my mails. There it was!! The second letter from my aunt this year! I still can't believe it. We hadn't had any contact for almost 10 Years now. Since my father left my mother, I hadn't had any contact and now she's writing letters or cards to me, asking me how I feel and chatting a little about stuff from my father's family side. I was glad to hear that everybody was okay, but still... to hear from her after 10 years still is quite a shock?!

Dear God, please let everybody be okay!!

Well, I'm a little depressed now, since I came to remember that I lost a huge part of my family the day my father left. After he died, the didn't even acknowledge me, so yeah, here I am.
*sigh*
I hope my aunty is coming by soon. I want to talk to her about my foreign studies in America...

Cheers!

Creative work at its Best!

Time's running out - kinda...
We write October 14th and 4 more days till Kumama and Stiltzkin are going to be away, which means I still have 4 more days to finish some stuff, before I start working on my college exams. GREAT! I so don't like to work on it, but can't be helped, can it? *laugh*
Anyway. I did some new karaoke for two new songs, which actually were timed by my new timer Lailu! Thank you so much again and again!
You know, it's pretty hard to find someone who actually loves to do the timing job.

Well for starters here are some screens for the first JYONGRI single PV - Possession.
I used one and the same effect just with diffrent colors. Everything is in blue and red colors, to match the cloths she's wearing. I also used an old effect I did for the Opening Song of Heroic Age for the group NTFS.
Basically the font consists of flying stars from the right, which are coming down to collect the sylable and to fly with it up to the left. The effect is pretty fast and matches the song quite perfectly.
The second Song I did was the second single PV by MEILIN, another artist with korean blood. The song is really upbeat and quite a catchy song, tho it doesn't really have a meaning behind it all. Still, I loved the song and so here we are.

The video is with two diffrent effects. The effect in the first picture is actually another part of the opening song for Heroic Age which I used there for the choir. In this video it fits to the english parts of the lyrics.
The second and the one with lots of diffrent colors is in the other video. You basically have the blubble effect I used years back for Ayumi Hamasaki's evolution video. I changed something tho, case the bubbles now have random colors, which makes it fit the videotheme. Everything else, even the main effect for the larger part of the video, is mostly in black and white to make it less crowded.

I really think it fits! Hopefully you'll enjoy it as much as I do!

And now ... off to bed, I need some sleep.
I've got lessons to attend today.

Heart Attack and some creative things...

God, I tell you. I really thought I'm going to have a heart attack in the morning. First thing when I woke up and went to check on my emails was a message from my lovely aunt, that my granny had an accident. For at least one second there I thought I can't breath anymore. After veryfiing that my granny was okay and she's going to have a plaster for quite some time I was relieved.

After that I thought I'd go to the library and bring back those fucking books I still have - well imagine... I forgot one at home and I've got to go again!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

*sigh* Can't be helped tho, can it?
Yesterday I tried to finish some adjustments for an anime Opening which the group asked me to redo, since they didn't like the other one some other guy did. Pain in the ass, I tell ya!
I had to rewrite everything and couldn't keep one fucking line. GOSH! I really hated it, but I was able to copy the effect nearly exactly like it was and through in my own charm. HA!

There we go... that's what it looks like. The Song is by move, called Blazin' Beat, so we've got 2 diffrent effects here. On the left is the girl and on the right side is the guy XD. Funny that I had to redo the opening, since I already did the ending for the same group a few days back.
There's a pic for the ending. Basically its a lot of move from right to the left and some background border highlights in blue.

Well coming back to my last post - guys, you've got to watch Ratatouille. I think it's the best animated movie this year and the movie is just W.O.W ... It really was an amazing film. Lots of interaction, a hillarious storyboard and characters you've got to love. If you got the time - don't miss it!


Ah before I forget it. Here are two lovely pics from the wedding videos I'm doing for kumama's wedding this month!! I really hope she's going to like them!
This one is from Kuwata Keisuke - kaze no uta wo kikasete. Kuwata Keisuke is the leadsinger from Southern All Stars and a really talented guy - at least in my eyes. You should watch it!This one is from Oda Kazumasa and it's called KOKORO, which means Heart. The song is really lovely and is the theme song for the japanese Dorama "First Kiss". The leadactress from the dorama also plays the bride in this PV.
