Double-Releases are a Bitch!

Hey folks!

Tell you what? Releasing a video twice with diffrent effects for diffrent groups is a bitch!!!!
I've been working all day on this PV for H!F, which I already did onces for my german PV group. But since H!F wants diffrent effects I'm doing it all over again - which isn't that bad actually. The thing is I'm re-doing effects I already did onces and really liked back then. And now I'm doing totally diffrent effects and it just doesn't really work out. It's now 30 minuts after midnight and I'm working on this shit since I woke up this morning which was around midday. I did 4 diffrent versions while 3 of them were total failures and I started anew every time.
Finally I've got it nearly as I had envisoned it... well okay. No, scratch that. they are completely diffrent but they still look fine and SC seems to be okay with them! GOD, YES!
Well, anyway. I hope to finish them soon.

But I also have good news! I finally found an editor to work on the translation for the german releases! YES! I had a really good Editor a few weeks ago but since about a month I'm always running behind him and trying to catch his attention to finish the stuff I've been waiting for. I'm nearly out of releases - well okay, I AM out of releases - and desperatly need new stuff! I finally got ahold of cYcLoNe (a friend of mine who already worked with me in anime fansubs) and he finished all the pending edits in less than 4 hours!! YOOOOOOOOSHHA! Finally new edits which results in new stuff to encode!! HAHA.... skarloc will hate me for the work he's getting now... but XD HA! I'm so happy!
Thanks again cYcLoNe!!!

Today I also grabbed my new package from the post office in which I finally received my copy of Christine Feehan's Dark Hunger Manga (which looks nice, but isn't quite my style - had to have it anyway, since I'm a huuuuuuuuge fan!!!!) and my copy of "Shifters", an anthology with Angela Knight, Lora Leigh, Virginia Kantra and Alyssa Day. Can't wait to read it... which I will start in a few minutes ^^ HA!

Well.. that's it for today! oh wait! just a quick thought about yesterday! Was watching "horton hears a who!" at the cinema! AWEsome fun! XD byeee~

Christmas' coming and I've got the mad urge to tell you what presents you going to get from me - but I so won't do it. It would spoil the whole meaning of a "present".
The last 2 weekends quite were interessting. We released 6 new PVs in a short time period, kinda like a special. If everything goes like I planned, we're going to have another 8 videos in a couple of days.
Now since that was Kizuna talk, here's Mognet!
We first thought about not doing a themed pv special but in the end we ended up again with lots of new videos which actually fit christmas or winter. Now since I'm a little too busy for my liking I'm only going to finished 5 christmas pvs total and the others either have to wait another year or we're going to finish them in january/february.

Anyway... something entirely diffrent - I've been running around in a multimedia store and came across a little SOMETHING! Now here's ... THE GRINCH! He is a popular cartoon character created by Dr. Seuss. He first appeared in the 1957 children's book, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas!". This was followed in 1966 by a popular television special, produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's MGM Animation/Visual Arts studio, and directed by Chuck Jones. In 1977, Seuss responded to the fan request for more Grinch tales by writing "Halloween Is Grinch Night", a Halloween special that aired on CBS. Like its predecessor, the sequel was recognized at the Emmy awards. In 1982, Marvel green-lit "The Grinch Grinches the Cat in the Hat", which was also produced by Dr. Seuss, under his real name, Ted Geisel. This third special garnered two Emmy awards.
After Seuss's death, a 1999 live-action feature film adaptation was produced. Directed by Ron Howard, it featured Jim Carrey in the titular role and was a major financial success. Although a box-office hit, the film received mostly negative reviews, comparing it unfavorably to the book and the television special. The movie fleshes out the Grinch's story by showing the Grinch as a youngster. [honestly stolen from wikipedia ;) thank you very much!]

If you ever want to watch it you've got to wait for christmas, and you should make sure you watch it because it's hillarious. Never forget it's a child story and should be fun for the whole family and not some drama-omg-I've-got-to-cry "stuff of dreams".
Well since it's late and I'm out of words - or more like - I just don't want to write anymore.
Oyasumi!

Has it been a week already? Oh noes... time's running way too fast for me right now.
Someone actually missed me?
Guess not!
Tomorrow I'll be writing a test, so I'll keep this post short.

The last week was kinda busy. I tried to finish a lot of work since I was asked to be done so we could release those four episodes on each sunday starting this week - which I acutally made in time, but then - you can't count on others if you want to have something finished in time. It's unfortunate, since I really put a lot of time into it, even though I didn't have the time to spend at all. I actually dismissed the idea to write a test this tuesday to finish my work on those four videos. Well can't be helped, can it? I'm not going to tell on what we're actually working, since it's going to be a surprise, but I think you'll like it. There's going to be a german and an english version of it, which will probably be really popular.

Other than that I've got to thank skarloc for helping me out on those german PV encodes. He's been working his ass off for me the last few weeks. He told me to stop thank him but I'm really grateful!! Maybe I was a little to vigorous about it? *laugh*

I've been reading a new author lately. I did some digging around and came up with her - Alexis Morgan. She's been writing on diffrent storyboards but I really was intrigued with her paladin concept. I bought her first book and I liked it. I hope to get the other volumes soon, too. I've also been searching for other arists and I hope to get the books soon. Emma Holly's Midnight series and Susan Sizemore vampire storys seem to be pretty popular so I'll check them out.

Today I've been at my friends place to get some notes on tomorrows test and I ended up talking for like 4 hours, or so. It was kinda funny though and I really like her mother. She's easy to talk with and she reminds me of my mother - though I'd never tell her that in person, at least not for now. Funny thing is we talked about our childhoods and I said I don't really had good friends back then and I was quite an outsider - which promtly was confirmed when I came back home. A friend from my last school wrote me via studiVZ, a plattform to find old friends 'n stuff, and she asked me why I wasn't at the reunion last week - HA! I wasn't even INVITED!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe it - funny thing is I've never been invited at any reunion anyway over the past years. It just strengthens my resolve to go to america in a few years. I've never fit in here and I really hope that'll be difrent once I'm over there...
Did you ever have the feeling you don't fit? At least I had it a couple too many times if you ask me.

Anyway, I've found something really funny and acurate on Marjorie Liu's blog.
Sometimes I really feel like that:

If you find any mistakes in this post just keep them. I wrote this without my glasses on, so I'm sure to have wrote something wrong! HAHA ;) Good Night!

Writing spirit

Remember when I last told you that I was writing on a new story?? Well yeah, it's progressing, but I had another idea, this time for a childrens book which I'm currently developing. It's interessting to work on that, since I normally only ready or write about romance stories. The idea came while I was sleeping. I had a really straaaaaaaaaange dream and woke up of it. And since it seemed like a pretty good idea I stoop up, searched for pen'n'paper and started writing it down. The sketch of the book is now at 6 A4 pages with lots of details in it, which I just have to refine a little bit. It's going to be about a girl growing up in her own mind, where she now lives after she had a traumatic incident. Her years are divided in diffrent rooms in a big house with weird people in it and to progress through those diffrent rooms she has to regain her abilities of love, trust, faith...
It kinda sounds strange for now, but if I can write it like I think I will, it'll be quite nice. Dreams are really great most of the time!!!!

Oh here's another thing I want to share with you, a little something of my new story "Guardians". Since it's still developing, just give it a try and leave some comments?

No, I won’t give up. I can’t give up. I’ve got to keep it together. Functioning! Thinking! I’m a thinking person for havens sake. I need to think this through. Gosh, I so don’t want to loose myself, but… But…
Blinking up at the person standing over her, she lost track of every other thought she might have had. It was hideous, a monster, something out of a bad dream to frighten children. Boney features greeted her in a stark and ugly face. Black pits of marvelous eyes, with no real depth. Black voids with a red flicker, much like some ugly candlelight in a hole, stared at her. His face was drawn back into a grinning mask. Yellow canines and two bloody fangs jutted out of his mouth which was smeared with another’s blood. Black was the only color that thing wore on his body, which was in stark contrast to his nearly translucent white skin color. Black slacks under a black satin shirt with wide cuffs that looked a little bit too fluffy for her liking. Why was it, that such things – vampires – always were a little dramatic in their clothing? She never quite understood that from the novels she read as a teenager. While standing over her, he was at least 6’8 feet tall, much taller than she was with her 5’5, broad shoulders and flat stomach, covered with the blood of her best friend Christy. Christy and she were out eating at one of the restaurants in the area. Watching a movie, eating out, and then back to their beds for a little girl talk between friends. Sounded like a good idea when they had planned it. Why hadn’t she been aware of the danger around her? Why couldn’t she save even her best friend?
Christy was a friendly person, a little taller than she was, trusting and altogether too good to be real. All striking blue eyes in a heart shaped face and blond curls bouncing all around that lovely high cheekbones and lush red mouth. She never really bothered with her appearance, much like me. Her hair was like satin, long and hung down to her ass. She never bothered with that either and just trust it up in a high ponytail. She became her best friend when she needed someone to give her strength. She had been there for her, when she had lost her parents a few months ago and her only solace to keep going. She didn’t have much of a family left now.
Lost in her thoughts she looked up to him and after a long stare he crouched down to greet her with a snarling hiss which really frightened her. His breath smelled like death and blood. She so didn’t want to die here, but what could she probably do? She had lost everything to this monster. Her beloved sisters and parents and now the best friend she ever had. She even lost part of herself in a dark pit of bleakness, which hovered right over her conscious thoughts. Loosing her parents was one of the most devastating things she ever encountered. Ever since she could remember, she had loved her parents, and even though they were not her birth parents, they had loved her back, like they loved their own children. They were happy together, growing up in a big white house with a white fence around the estate. Two big dogs had played in the backyard and they never lacked money or anything else. It was a good childhood, filled with laughter and joy.
That thing kept telling her she was his soul-mate, his other half and she so doesn’t want to be the other half of a freaking vampire. What in the ninth hell was a soul-mate? And whatever that is, she’s just a human, for all it was worth. But now, here she was, covered in the blood of her best friend, which had tried to shield her with her own body. Christy lay face down in the dirty parking lot, her eyes too big for her face, lungs rattling to get a gulp of oxygen to keep going. She looked far too good even now, with her gray face and dirty hair. Christy pleaded with her eyes to run and cover. To get out of here so her sacrifice wasn’t lost. But no, she would never run. “I won’t run away. I never run away from danger and you know that. I’m the helping kind of girl. It’s my freaking job to help others. I’m a damn police officer”, she whispered in her ear while covering her body with her own. “I love you and thanks. I’ll keep you alive and I promise to get you away from him as soon as possible. Just hang on and don’t give up, Christy. I love you. Hang on!”
She stared back up to the hideous monster which had attacked her and smiled. A smile that said it all. That said that she won’t ever forgive him, that she would kill him, that she would do everything to see him destroyed, to never hurt anyone else. That was her silent vow before she saw a fist coming right to her face. God, this would hurt a lot and then she saw black…

Startled out of his dream he snapped his eyes open and looked around. The familiar room greeted him and the last darkness seemed to settle down. What time was it? Numb with a headache worse than everything he ever had, like if someone had struck him hard with a baseball bat on the head, he sat up tentatively and looked around another time. He was home in his bedroom, surrounded by stuff he knew. Strange. He had the real feeling he’d missed something. What had he dreamed about anyway? “Gosh, my head. I think I need some strong coffee to get the fuzzy feeling out of my head”, he said to himself in a husky voice and got out of bed. First a hot shower, fresh cloths and a mug of his beloved coffee and the world would be better.
Sauntering out of the room, stretching his muscles, he went straight to the bathroom. It was early morning, something like 5:30 am and everyone else still slept in their beds. A shower sounded good for starters. In the bathroom he discarded his satin pajama bottoms, climbed into the shower and turned on the hot water. Hot water always got him up and running. It was nice for a change to be the first to take a shower before his friends woke up. It was funny living with other people in the same house but when you woke up to late, all the hot water was gone, which sucked. Taking a deep breath he let the water cascade down his own lean body. 6’5 feet tall, all lean muscles and tanned skin, Daniel looked like a small version of a geek god. Long brown hair hung down over his shoulders, now wet from the shower and he massaged shampoo into it. Leaning back his head the rinsed out the remains of the shampoo and turned off the water. Always good to take a quick shower or his friends are going to kick his ass. Normally he was the last to get into the bathroom because he was most likely to need all the remaining hot water and no one wants to actually take a cold shower, right?
Climbing out of the shower he got one of the new fluffy towels and started to rub his body dry. After that he took his toothbrush and started the routine. Looking out of the window, still brushing his teeth, he watched the sun climb higher and higher. Dawn was breaking and he actually loved this time of the day, though his friends wouldn’t believe that. He sat on the windowsill, looking out over the backyard and watching the sun come up over the high trees behind the house. Bright yellow, pink and lilac greeted him and he send up a prayer to god with a big thank you for another day in his life, with his friends and everything he needed.
It was a little after 6 when he got down to the kitchen wearing faded blue jeans and a muscle shirt in something that should have been ivory which now looked kind of odd. Yeah okay, it was his favorite shirt, he’ll grand that, but why should he wear something he didn’t like? Clattering around the kitchen he fixed himself a big mug of coffee and took one of the cookies in the jar and sat down on the kitchen table. Turning on the TV he watched the news and sipped is coffee.
From behind his back he heard someone stomping down the stairs, something that sounded like a big basketball slapping on something hard, followed by several explorative swear words. Seems like Daniel’s brother Michael was up and banging his had on the way to the kitchen. “Mornin’ bro”, Daniel said and flashed him a grin. “Morning little Danny”, said Michael with a grunting noise, still rubbing his forehead.
“Oh, common, stop calling me Danny. I’m your little brother, okay, but I’m not a kid anymore. I turned 25 last week and I’m the one bringing the money home, so stop it already. I’m not calling you Mik anymore either. You didn’t like it and you made sure that I know that. So please, for heavens sake, stop it!”
28 year old Michael is the head of the household, which basically consists of himself, Sam, Lillian and Daniel. Every one of them lost their parents and they grew up together in an orphanage. The time back then was hard, but somehow they managed to stay together. Friendship, lots of adventures and a secret were their only solitude and they tried hard to stay together. Another reason for it might be that they all were different from the other kids. From the first time they saw each other they knew who they were and that they had do be secretive of their nature and themselves for all their life. Banding together sounded like a good idea. Being of a different race might call for that, right? A different race? [...]

Pouring his own cup of coffee Michael grunted something that sounded like “forget it” and I kept it at that and turned my head back to the TV which was now broadcasting the early morning news. Michael seated himself next to Daniel and they both watched the news in silence, drinking coffee. Nothing much in the news either, just your everyday news I guess. The weather, highlights about the last day and things that might be important for the next couple of days like a head-up about the upcoming elections. Daniel was so not interested in politics, but Michael was, so he kept the news on and went into the kitchen to pour him another cup of coffee. While sipping his second cup, rubbing at his temple with his free hand, he thought about last nights dream. He only remembered so much and he couldn’t quite forget the feeling he had about the dream. Something about it told him he should remember it, something important. Something very important for his life. It was like an addiction, or more like a detox of something he can’t quite put a hand on right now.
Sighing and frustrated that he can’t remember even the slightest bit of information, he went back to the table and seated himself. The election news were nearly over and the real interesting news were about to start - News about missing people, mysterious cases and things like that. That was what he basically was doing in real life. Daniel is a detective of the local police department and sometimes works as private investigator. The work was fun and he could count on his prenatural abilities to find people or stop murderers. If the case was too much for him alone he calls his team, which was his family. The police chief knows about Daniel’s team and keeps quite, which is basically the only thing he can do about it. I am not about to give up on one of my cases, only because I’m not able to solve it alone. Yeah, I might have a bit of pride, and maybe I’m a predator and don’t like other people digging in my dirt, but I don’t want to loose a life due to my fucking pride. I’m not THAT stupid, well at least not anymore. I really learned that the hard way.
Uh huh, the hard way. Deep in thought and sighing he nearly missed the picture of a petite woman with dark brown hair and green eyes like the deep forest. The photo looked like it was pretty new and she wore a police officers uniform. Even with the formal attire she looked great in it. Or maybe that was just what he thought while staring at the picture. He forgot to breath and could only ogle the photo with gaping mouth. Wow, she’s beautiful. Her eyes are like the deep forest in the mountains and her hair reminds me of healthy soil. God, she’s lethal for men and women alike. I don’t think I ever saw someone who’s as beautiful as she is.
I know her, but why?

HUH?! >_< I really like the story up till now, but I'll get better I think. Writing a full story in english is a little bit diffrent than writing blog entries, at least that's what I think. It was interessting to dig up some book for research. I alreay have more of it, but I won't post it for a long time. I want to rewrite some parts in this chapter up there. I hope to get it done soon. For now :) Have a nice night, I'm going to eat my Tortellini with tomatoe sauce now and then continue to sleep.

Night~Fellows!

Sashiburi!

Well, it's been quite a while, since I last wrote an entry. Sorry about that. The last week was kinda busy and I slept way too much most of the time.
I just try to get to the bottom of everything I did!

Uhm, well first of all, I read a lot - which isn't something entirely new *haha*. The new part is that I started writing on a new story, in English this time. This is something totally new to me!! It’s pretty hard to write in a foreign language, but lots of patience helps a lot. I think it'll be okay. I just have to stick with it.

I did some new karaoke works in the last few days. I actually finished the everything anything video by Leah Dizon last weekend.I think it turned out pretty good, since nobody objected to it. I also started on a new PV by AKB48. It's one of skarloc's favourites, and since he did all the encodes for me for the past few days, I decided to work on it now. It too turned out very good; I just have to finish typesetting on the cell phone scenes in there. But I guess I'll be done by next week, or so.
But that's not all I did. I also finally worked some more on the upcoming "Amazing Nuts" videos Kizuna is doing with subs4u and Mognet. The first of 3 episodes is basically done. It just needs some tweaking.Here's a picture from the inside karaoke of episode 3; Koda Kumi - Twinkle. I thought I just keep it simple and enjoy the video so basically you see a lot of stars falling down, which should resemble the "twinkle twinkle" in this video. It was kinda fun to write that, especially since I used the same effect for 4 lines in everything anything. Thanks to Bambus for pointing out how that fucking effect works. I tried to write that one for like 4 months now, but I never quite finished it and it didn't want to work.
Well, beside working on karaoke, reading and sleeping, I also went to watch a movie with my friend Philipp yesterday. We ended up watching Joe Wright's adaptation of Ian McEwan's Book "Atonement" (Abbitte), starring James McAvoy and Keira Knightley. Fledgling writer Briony Tallis, as a 13-year-old, irrevocably changes the course of several lives. In the summer of 1935, Briony observes a flirtation between a servant's son, Robbie (James McAvoy), and her older sister, Cecilia (Keira Knightley), that she childishly misconstrues. Briony's misunderstanding leads to a terrible crime whose consequences follow them through World War II."You can only imagine the truth", the center piece of the whole movie only registers after everything changed and changed for all time.
I really loved Joe Wright's interpretation of this book. Maybe I'm a bit biased but I also loved his first cinema production "Pride & Prejudice" (Stolz und Vorurteil). I don't know how often I already watched that movie. Well okay, I love Jane Austen’s novels, so that shouldn’t surprise at all, right?
Anyway…I’ve been writing on this blog entry for 4 hours now, and I didn’t accomplish anything in that time. The entry isn’t even long and I don’t know anymore what I even wanted to write or say with this post.
*sigh* Never mind!!

I’ll see ya around next time.

Runthrough...

Gosh! It's been a lovely sunday so far. I've done nothing at all and should have done sooooooooooo much. I'm still struggling with my two works for the university I've got to finish asap. I can't believe I'm still not done with them, isn't that just "great"?
Anyway!
Just found out a friend of mine is writing a blog for himself (TheDeath), so I just linked him in the "frequently visiting blog" section on your right side. If you've got some time to spare and you're dead bored just look at his reaaaaaaaaaaally random stuff and you might find something to laugh about, at least I did! Those cubics are just fucking great!

I'm working on two new PVs again - even tho we're actually, officially on vacation now! Can't you tell I'm vacating? HA! no waaaaaaaaaaaaaay~
Nobody would believe that anyway, right? Well, at least noone who knows me.
A friend of mine, who's working for my german PV group did those timings, 'cause he really loved the songs - never thought he would. We're talking abouth LEAH DIZON's Softly and Everything Anything and actually I never thought I would like them. Okay, I like Softly better, but they are cute as hell - at least that's what I think.
It's funny to know that Leah actually is a fotobook model, which doesn't hesitate to drop some gowns *gg* but she can, she's beautiful. Leah went to Japan a few years back because most of her fans were from Japan and she actually was exepted pretty fast into a japanese model agency.
After some time there she began to release music, and that too was really good. God, isn't she a natural?
Dunno. I've never even paid her any attention and I'm just, because we're doing those pvs of her. HAHAHA!
nvm I'm just silly XD

Today came my aunt again and she brought with her a really yummi cake - too bad I can't take picutres right now *sigh* It's my belated birthday cake - a Schwarzwälderkirschtorte. Never heard of that? GOGGLE is your friend!Mine actually looks a little diffrent, and I'm sure it tastes diffrent, but you get the idea, don't you!?

I'm leaving you guys now, cause I'm pretty tired and I want to read for a little bit, so have a nice day and don't be gloomy!

Afterthoughts and new stuff

Hello there!!
Well isn't it a lovely day out there? Huh, you don't know? You've been home all day? Well than you're like me. I've not been out for the last two days and actually I don't feel like going out right now. Yesterday my aunt visited me and we talked about me going to America in a few years. This process is actually really, really hard and you need to think on a lot of diffrent possibilities which could bite you in the ass if you don't take great care on some things.
The main problem for me was that I don't have the funding I need to go there. Most of the time there are partents that help funding foreign studies and with supports it isn't really that bad, but if you're alone - like me - you've got problems to geht the right amount of money you will need to get accepted ot the universtity you which to sign to. In my case we're taking about approximately 2 years which will come to a total cost of 72000USD/~67000€. That's hell of a lot of money if you ask me.
So well, my aunt and me thought about diffrent ways to get that money... a loan, selling all my stuff and use that money to make a new start in America or staying for another 2 years, finishing up my master here and moving on to America afterwards and acquire a double masters degree. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM....
Well I'm still sleeping it over, but.. oh well.

The thoughts are pretty depressiv if you ask me *sigh* Can't help it though, right?
Anyway! Mognet celebrated their 5th birthday with a shitload of new releases I did the last few weeks ago. Right now I'm working on new releases for the upcoming November/December "Special" when we're coming back from our break. So far so good.

Great News thou - Jin is back! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Jin is another blogger in blogspot where he write on his Hello!Project Blog. I really love the blog and I'm happy that he's finally back from his break!! WAI! \(^.^)/

Oh, and here's another thing I did today!

You Are a Newborn Soul

You are tolerant, accepting, and willing to give anyone a chance. On the flip side, you're easy to read and easily influenced by others. You have a fresh perspective on life, and you can be very creative. Noconformist and nontraditional, you've never met anyone who's like you. Inventive and artistic, you like to be a trendsetter. You have an upbeat spirit and you like almost everything. You make friends easily and often have long standing friendships. Implusive and trusting, you fall in love a little too easily. Souls you are most compatible with: Bright Star Soul and Dreaming Soul

What Kind of Soul Are You?

Now isn't that refreshing?
^^ Have a nice day and see ya soon!

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!

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.

another day in paradise...or not?

yeah well, I'm back. This time in english again, dunno why, but I love to write in english. I've been going nuts the last two days. Kumama loves me for finishing all the pending projects we had and I didn't do anything else for a few days - which was prettys heavy.
Yesterday I had my first day on colleage again, but like you can imagine - nope, I wasn't there. I tried to finish those PVs - pictures coming up later!
[Edit] here are the pics!!
Little feat Turtoise Matsumoto - hatsu koi no ~What's going on~
Tackey & Tsubasa - Ho! Summer
Nami Tamaki - Brightdown
Utada Hikaru - dare ka no negai no kanau koro
Kishidan - Kira Kira


Well anyway, that's why I have to get going today and do those copy things I've got to do and bring back those books.
ah well! Right now I'm watching the incredibles ^^ nice show, I really like those pixar films.
Well, time for some french toast!

bubye

Another day

Like hell! I just couldn't get myself to go out and do those things I desperately wanted to do on friday, so I sticked around and did some online shopping to turn in my gift certificates! Thanks a bunch Erik and Esther! I bought some lovely books.

Well, at least I found my documents I need for monday. But you guess! Monday'll be a really bad ass day!
Received another library warning on friday - hence... I can't help it. I-need-those-fuckin-books-for-my-lesson! Tho I'll try to bring them back on monday, cause I have lessons in the same building anyway. Unfortunetly it's sunday again, which means... only oooooooooooooooooooooone night left, before I have to get back to life. Can you believe it? I really had like three-fucking-months of vacation. I tried to remember what I did those past weeks, but I didn't come up with anything good. Imagine! I can't even remember what I did!!!!!

Well okay... lets stop to go crazy here, or I'm really losing it.
I just finished new videos for kumama! I think she's pretty happy about them.
The birthday special is coming up and I really need to get those other videos done and I still have to do her wedding videos! Oh my GOSH! Well, I think they'll turn out nicely! Thanks to el for helping me out and to Stiltz for keeping his mouth shut!
I love you guys. Really!!

Back to work now ^^ Encoding those cuts is all done now so I'm going to shut down the comp and get some sleepy-sleep. oO Hopefully it'll work - today, again, I overslept .. yeah!

haha
bye~

o.O and I'm so into english, that I'm going to write some posts in english! haha!

der Tag danach und der kreative Schub~

Oh mein Gott! bin ich fertig. Gestern war ein schöner Abend. Ich konnte mit meiner Freundin sehr viel quatschen und war endlich wieder fähig einige Bilder für die Zeitung einzuscannen (mein Scanner daheim geht nämlich immer noch nicht). *danke Esther* ^^ Obwohl ich erst kurz vor 18 Uhr bei ihnen war, war es ziemlich lustig. Am Ende musste ich den Nachtbus nach Hause nehmen und kam erst um kurz vor 4 Uhr morgens bei mir daheim an. Zum Glück wohnt meine Freundin nicht all zu weit weg.

Dafür ist mir in der Nacht wieder etwas eingefallen. Obwohl ich eigentlich lernen müsste, konnte ich mich an etwas erinnern, was mir einmal ein Freund gezeigt hat. Nämlich eine Seite mit atemberaubenden Karaoke zu Anime OPs und EDs. Das besondere war, dass sie alle mit ssa/ass gemacht wurden, was ziemlich bewunderswert ist. Wenn ich es mal schaffe, dass ich hier Bilder hochladen kann, dann zeige ich auch, was ich meine! ^^ Ich geh jetzt erstmal frühstücken und telefonieren.
Peace!~
