Huh, I think I've figured out that editing with pictures like this is my fave way of editing in AE^^
Aaanyways, I started this project 2 days ago when I felt like I really wanted to edit with Aki in some way, but I was absolutely clueless as to what song I could use. First I remembered about a rock song that could maybe fit her, but I didn't feel any inspiration for that song. Plus, I didn't feel like I wanted to edit with anything too lyric heavy since I wasn't feeling up for trying to find fitting clips to download from YT again. I was looking through songs and I remembered about this one which I had seen in one Instagram edit. I started contemplating that maybe I could use this, but I definitely wasn't confident in this choice at first. However, this changed with time.
As I was editing this in AE, it felt like all of what I was doing was happening so smoothly, and I didn't even need to put thought into what I was doing - it was just happening, really.
This is, of course, after some trial and error after coming back to the project and nearly breaking the flow of it. I added about three pictures with effects and transitions after the one at 0:04, and none of them appear in this final video here. And the effects and transition styles I used weren't kept, either. I was trying to make those clips work, but it just didn't feel right, so I went ahead and deleted what I had done there, and then began rethinking what could go with the flow. That's when it started feeling fun again.
In general, It was a whole lot of fun editing this, especially in AE. I had some trouble with the Twixtor however, bc it wasn't working the way I wanted it to, with the third anime clip I used here, but eventually I got it to work in some way.
Speaking of those - I actually got the clips from YT, once again, so I apologize for the quality of them. Another thing that bothered me a little was that I hadn't realized that I could mask out the subtitles that were on the clips I used. These subtitles aren't visible when the clip is done rolling, but they could or can be seen as the clip _is_ rolling. I tried to fix this later on, but I'm a bit worried that it looks messy ^^''
By that, I mean that once I felt like I was done with this, and I had rendered it, I put it into Vegas - mostly to add a coloring, because I was worried that adding MBL would mess the rendering process up in AE.
I made a coloring specifically for this video, instead of editing an already existing coloring I had made, and I feel like it's quite nice. There were a lot of points where I had to fade the video in and out of it because some parts were a bit too bright, so I had to go in and decrease that part alone.
To hopefully make the subtitles less visible, I added a lot of RSMB as well as blurs and flashes on the anime clips. But maybe the RSMB was a mistake to add on some of the clips, bc they just don't have subtitles and it wasn't really needed XD''
There was something that I forgot to do before rendering this thing in AE before, so that's why I said that I _felt_ like I was done. I wanted to add a glitch effect, but the kind that can be done with S_TVDamage. I tried to do the effect the same way it would be done in AE, in Vegas, but the result was different, so first I searched for videos, but after finding nothing I just decided to make the glitch effect, myself, so I could use it in Vegas and won't have to re-render the edit again. I feel like the result of the glitch is good ^^
The last thing I wanna say is that this took 2 hours and 51 minutes to render, and I waited through all of it. I was a bit horrified when I saw it show that there were ''42 minutes'' left to render when it first stopped, but as you can see, that was definitely not the case in the end XD'' It was nearly 1 AM by the time it was done, and I feel like rendering messed the clips up a bit, bc it still looked fine in Vegas' preview screen, and I have no clue what happened to the bass shake at the end. It didn't look that bad before XD''
A little disappointed that I didn't render the edit in 60 fps in AE, simply bc I forgot it was set to 30 fps (and rendering this in 60 fps in Vegas would not be the best idea), bc I feel like then this could've looked a bit more smooth, or nicer, but oh well.
IIII hope y'all enjoy this? XD
I also hope that you all have a good day or night ^^

Layers: Maybe 16 in AE, 5 in Vegas
Time taken: 2 or 3 days (if you count the render time going over midnight as a 3rd day)
