A little distracted again.17824_dragon_ball_z.jpg
​I find myself a bit distracted again from doing my normal work. Instead of finishing up the last parts of my next chapter I found myself making a video with clips from Dragon Ball Z. The videos here, I did a bunch of editing to get it all together, spent the whole day on it nonstop. The real difficulty was getting the clips together nicely within the song's duration, using the correct video format, again and again. Another difficult thing I had to keep redoing were the lyrics to the song, the spacing would be off or the timing of when they appeared, it drove me just about nuts. "I now envy those who make lyric videos." Safe to say I've memorized the song in its entirety, not that I already hadn't heard it a million times but I do like this newer version done by Flow. They did a great job in my opinion, speaking of which this version isn't too great on quality. It's a radio version, I was going to use a live version but I found it too difficult to remove audience noises without sacrificing large amounts of audio quality. For what I did have I improved as much as I could, clearing up parts, taking out some beginning radio talk and improving low frequency sounds and overall volume with the bass and amplification tools. I hope if you decide to watch it you enjoy it.

I chose to include the trailer along with the loads of clips merged together (sticking to some kind of timeline). Again it too isn't the brightest of quality but as it stands there aren't too many alternatives. One trick I found out when sewing the clips together was that I could increase the speed of playback of individual clips at varying speeds, this tool was very useful in keeping the tempo and the music in tune with one another. Tell me what you guys think, I'd love to hear what your opinions are. Were my visual effects too much compared to originals you may have seen? Happy watchings!



P.S. For anyone who's waiting I really want to get out the next chapter of Sunlight to the Hereafter in the coming days. If I hadn't spent so much time on this and other things I might've had it done. I have come down with a cold though "Stupid Flu shots!", *achoo!!*, I ran out of Kleenex so my nose has been pretty stuffy and red. I'm really hoping with these next couple days off I can get things rolling again with everything.
