Raggedstar - ADGTH - Never Come Back - Tribute To Charlie


UPDATE: Came in 1st of Dame's AMV contest (ATK class). Also was a commended video (almost good as the winners) for Neravaira's "The Heart Of Everything" AMV contest.

Entry for Dame's AMV contest (ATK class) as A birthday prezzie for my long time internet friend, Quilleh (cl0pin on DA. She has awesome stuff).

On top of being my largest video (0.98 GB), this is maybe the DARKEST ADGTH AMV on Youtube. Leave it to Raggs to turn a kid movie into something twisted lol.

This AMV focuses on Charlie and his relationship (EDIT: More like obsession) with death (originally planned to be just him and the watch, but due to this being a fast paced song, I needed ADGTH2). When I got the CD (The Heart Of Everything) and read the lyric book, I found that this song just simply SCREAMED ADGTH. If you can't see why, watch ADGTH1. If you can't see it then, then you're beyond help. After Charlie gets killed by his former partner, Carface, he gets sent to heaven. He is instantly turned off by how there is no surprises (according to the Whippet Angel, "We know how it all turns out"). So, he winds the watch that represents his life, sending him back to earth. However, the Whippet Angel warns him that if that watch stops, he'll never return to heaven. Charlie often gets nightmares and goes completely bonkers if he thinks his watch is in danger, which is being expressed in this video.

This AMV took about 3 weeks to make and is another Vista video. I did a few bits of "effect abuse", mainly because I'm trying out new techniques. The editing used here seems to be a bit more "flashy" than my normal stuff, since I'm trying to make myself not look like the weakest link in RDLFS. Admit it peoples.

Oh, since WMM 6.0 has no way to increase video volume, here is what the characters say at the middle of the video.

Whippet Angel: You can never come back...
Itchy: Charlie...
