FFXII Vid: The Saga Begins

[aorin]

Somehow... you would begin to comprehend that you've attained another level of fandom insanity when you start to hallucinate and combine two completely unrelated fandom. Or maybe, the blame lies on the depravation of proper fangirlism for the past few weeks, and the sad expectation of the same treatment for the coming months.

Nevertheless, it was great fun to work on this piece for the sake of amusement and to fulfil my cravings for fandom. And seriously, by Jove, I've never expected Star Wars and Final Fantasy to accommodate each other so perfectly well - though I was highly aware of the similarities here and there.

I can safely say that this is the best thing in the history of ever. ♥

Well played, dear! Very nice.

I like how the video corresponds to the lyrics, and the video seems well put together, but I'm not a big fan of the song itself.

I laughed out loud at several moments--I think this could really be competition worthy if you handled the lip-synching more, made sure Basch's lips were moving in time with the music as unobtrusively as possible.

I'm pretty sure I love you now. Very, very sincerely. XD

that was incredibly funny. great effort!

Very funny XD.

I forgot about that scene where Vaan was dragged by the Seeq in Nalbina. Ahaha, very fitting for "he's just a small fry."

Not a bad video. I got some good laughs out of it.

Might want to work on getting some of the lip-sync down though. It felt a little awkward at times. And the faster video speed you used in a few places also felt a little awkward.
