-hiatus-  

firstly Im very very happy that i got 200 sub (now is 200+) ^^

thanks for all of your support, it is a pleasure that i have gotten many positive comments about my videos and amv =D

however from now on darknovaGW's work will be in hiatus. Just that this time I have been busy, hence I have gotten some problem that i need to solve and get over them firstly before I can start anything with editing vid and making amv again.

also, after 50 vids in 1 year, I think it's my time to stop for a while, in order to find some new materials for my vids (yes you can say why the heck I should need to find something new while my vids actually took from fmv's) but yes I do need, it's the way i focus on some certain scenes and feeling, the way i tried to express my feeling via scenes. I was into strong feeling so much and most of the time forgot other factors which is not a good thing to me.

hopefully I can see you guys again asap

but lol what i am talking about? sure i will still reply your messages and comments, but with slower time than before.






PS: I'm thinking about connecting back to metal =P lol

[Story of Evil]  

if you are interest, click the title of each part to watch the whole "story"



i will just analyse (or better say "summary"?) the whole story, since im so fond of the whole story [Story of Evil] but we will first start with my very own opinion that i really like concept albums, especially albums that can make it the whole story like this, i hope someday i can see a metal album with this concept flirt (usually in symphonic and progressive, concepts album contents many different bits of the whole story, not the story in words of different characters like in [Story of Evil])


Daughter of Evil (click):

the princess of Yellow, who did not care about anyone else but herself. she let her people starve while satisfying her want. she fell in love with the Prince of Blue. but the Prince of Blue already loved Lady of Green. Princess of Yellow ended up starting the war and murdering the Lady of Green. the country's people got angry and started a revolution. they caught her and executed her at 3pm. when the last moment came, the Princess of Yellow smiled and said: "oh, it's time for snack!"


Servant of Evil (click):

the twin brother of Princess of Yellow. for fate they were separated, one became princess, one became servant. he sworn that he would protect his sister whatever it costs "to protect you i will become the devil". he also fell in love with Lady of Green, but since his sister asked, he came to kill Lady of Green with his tears pouring. when the army attacked the castle, he switched clothes to his sister and help her flee while he was captured by the army. at the time being executed, he recognised his sister was among people watching around, so he smiled and joked: "oh, it's time for snack" and he made the wish "if i could reborn, i hope you would play with me again"


Daughter of Vengeance (click):

the Lady of Red. her family was starved under Princess of Yellow's rule. she stood up and started the war - the revolution. she came up with the help of Prince of Blue. when the army got into castle, Lady of Red realised it was the servant, not the right princess who was caught. but she knew they were siblings, so she pretended like nothing wrong. at the execution, she realised the real Princess of Yellow got to come, and Lady of Red was satisfised with the truth that Princess of Yellow will have to see her own brother died in front of her eyes. the pain Princess of Yellow got was the revenge of Lady of Red - Daughter of Vengeance.


Lady of Green (click):
a beautiful lady who lives up for her own fun - making conflict between people. she likes to make men around jealous of each other and fought for her love. when she knew the Prince of Blue came, she deceived him and made him fall in love with her. however, at the same time she met the Servant of Yellow Princess, and she did fall in love with that servant. the war was started by the Princess of Yellow, and the servant caught her. looking at the knife in his tremble hands, she knew he was going to kill her. Lady of Green held his hands and thrust the knife to her chest, smiling that she died with the man she truly loved.


Prince of Blue (click):
the charming prince who would get all girls as he wanted. but he fell in love with Lady of Green, though he already engaged with Princess of Yellow. people object the relationship since the 2 of them belong to different classes. One day he got to know she was killed and he was late to warn her. obviously it was Princess of Yellow who did it. Prince of Blue joined Lady of red's army and attacked the Yellow kingdom. at the execution, he got to know it was not the Princess but the servant who was going to be killed. but he did nothing. It was for the purpose of his revenge, too.


Ending:

Regret Message (click):
after the Servant's death, the Princess of Evil got to read a wish of her brother that said "if i could reborn, i hope you would play with me again". she went to the beach, looking at the wish within the bottle floating away, and wished for that would happen.


King of Blue over the sea: (click)
After the war, being tired and in pain of Lady of Green's death, Prince of Blue (now is the King) went to the harbor, and saw Princess of Yellow there, with the wish letter in a small bottle. he recognised her but settled that everything was over, both of them lost the ones they loved the most. King of Blue also wished for the future, for Princess of Yellow's fate, and hope she will not repeat her mistake again.


Re_Birth (click):
the Servant traveled within an empty space, the Green handcuffs pulled him, the Blue tears pulled him, and Red blood wrapped over his body. but then he saw the light, heard the voice of his sister, as he wanted to get back to her so much. after that the Green handcuffs, Blue tears and Red blood unchained him

when he opened his eyes, he saw a new life when he was reborn, being with people in a musical band, and that was his new birthday.

now abit about music, firstly all vocals in this song series are not real, Im not sure which one will be the exact word for it, "digital voice" or "virtual voice". all music was composed using a programme called VOCALOID, you can download the demo version of this programme to try make some music if you want, though the vocabularies library is very limited with only 5 words "I", "love", "you", "my", "baby"

the background music, or should i call "genre" and "material" is mostly pop-dance, a bit ballad and well many other things also mixed there (just to remind you again, the main theme music is already electrical music which can contents within itself many other kinds, except for the instrumental version)

back to vocals, in my opinion, I don't really consider them as good products. everything that was made again under human hands can never sounds natural. The feeling within the song was lost a lot because of that :irked: . they are good voices i cannot deny, maybe can say unbelievable voices, so cute, so high, so strong, can reach even hardest notes. but without feeling within, a good voice is just a voice, but not a vocal. Yes it may remind you the case of Gorillaz and you may have another opinion, but that was what i think :rolleyes:.

further more, the "anime" kind female vocals actually did irritate me somewhat. It's not I don't like high voices, as the truth that I have liked a certain number of sopranos, but the voice made by VOCALOID indeed hurt my ears . It could be a part of the programme's work but at least it was my impression about it.

but as for the concept and story, well i can say this is an awesome thing that you should not miss and still I cannot find any metal album that has this kind of great and neat story. the closest ones are The Black Halo and Epica by Kamelot, but the story is still not as deep as what I really look for.

a screenshot  


a screenshot from making the vid Far away. the number of "lines" you saw in the bar (please click on the pic to see the real size, the pic on this post is just so small ) is the total times i cut and put those vids together. with over 40 cut times, this vid's editing process is average (to me) .

NICKELBACK LYRICS
"Far Away"

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

[CHORUS]
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

[CHORUS]

So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
