EDIT: I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT ALTHOUGH MOST OF THE MANIPS ARE MINE, THERE ARE A SELECT FEW THAT BELONG TO THE LOVELY EMMA (XMAKORRAX).

THIS TOOK ME SEVERAL DAYS, LET ME TELL YOU

originally, this was a much happier project but i switched songs because who could resist coldplay? one of my favorite songs by them and i researched this song heavily and analyzed what it meant before i actually edited with it, deciding what direction i wanted to take these two. i've made sad videos of them before but this i knew would be different. if you listen closely, you can just hear it in his voice. the pain and suffering, it was very emotional for me and i have to admit that i got very emotional making this video. sO YOU BETTER BE AS WELL (KIDDING)

the plot is somewhat vague so if you don't fully understand it after watching, you can get the full story here:

i changed rapunzel's story a little bit. flynn rider doesn't exist and he never rescued her from her tower, but she did so herself. mother gothel discovered this and treated her like a prisoner. she was watched carefully and could never leave the tower but after becoming used to this routine, she manages to sneak out and she meets hiccup. the two fall in love and she would periodically sneak out to meet him

after awhile, the two would get into arguments because hiccup wanted a long term relationship and was upset with her because she wouldn't allow him to meet her family or see where she lived. rapunzel (what she knew at the time) had no family and she didn't want to expose him to her pitiful life but even so, she agrees to let him see her home. mother gothel discovers what she's been doing and the two get into a heated argument, which ends up with gothel relocating the two of them.

by the time hiccup decides to visit where she lives, the place is already trashed in what seemed to be a fight gone terribly wrong. immediately, he begins to panic as he has no idea what has happened to her. searching everywhere, she is nowhere to be found. for the most part, he assumes she's dead but that doesn't stop her from plaguing his every thought.

the rest of the video is up to you and how you interpret it. the original idea was that the black and white meant that those were either flashbacks or hallucinations. that hiccup only saw what he remembered and what he wanted to see. kind of goes back and forth with the question of rapunzel being alive or not. but i liked to think that she was still alive and would check up on him now and then when she could slip away from mother gothel.

the ending was pretty straight forward, although the usage of the black and white can be somewhat confusing. it all depends on you, whether you want it to be a hallucination or that the two actually were re-united. man, that was a lot to type but i hope the story is more clear now. i worked very hard on this and i'm very proud of what i've accomplished. if you got emotional, please give me the details as i would love to hear about it.

info is at the end of the video, hope you all enjoy and sorry for being awol for the past few months. i hope to get more active in mep groups again and upload videos more frequently.
