Why hello everyone!! This may have taken a waaayy longer than 3 weeks, ahehe. ;)
I think it was worth the wait though, and despite the long delay, it WAS the most successful MEP I've hosted. 11/12 people delivered their parts on time so I can't complain too much. And you 11 people did an OUTSTANDING JOB!!! THANK YOU so much for your participation and dedication!! I really appreciated it xD
BIG SHOUT OUT to FortisFaith for reaching out and being so willing to double up on parts. I couldn't have done it with out you. *literally* If it wasn't for her (and Funtasicvids) this MEP would probably be sitting idle till the end of my school semester.
Oh and speaking of THAT, yeah thats where I've been this whole time; I've been going INSANE this past month since starting back to college. My life has taken a complete 180 degree turn from being consumed with boredom all the time, to being overwhelmed 24/7 with assignments/deadlines - night and day, even in my dreams/nightmares; I can't escape -all I do is eat, sleep, and breath Animation!! Its wonderful and stressful at the same time, aha! Granted, I'd rather be busy than bored so thats positive.
With that said, you probably can tell I've been too busy to even tell you I'm "too busy"... SO, this is to OFFICIALLY announce that I am on a *SEMI-HIATUS* till the end of the semester. This is the first time in 6 years I've had to say those words, but I am dead serious about pursuing Animation and it requires 110% of my devotion. In fact I didn't even dare open my editor at all those first 3 weeks cause I was so stressed. (I finally caved in one night though because I was so desperate to vent.....then I regretted it the next day.)
I LOVE my school, the professors, and simply learning and being in a Christian environment in my major is such a rarity too. I've been working in Maya 3D software, animating 2D principles digitally in TVPaint, and drawing a ton and learning about design of course on old fashion paper. However - as odd as this is gonna sound - drawing is not one of strong points, at all. I love drawing I just hate my drawing if that makes sense. I'm more technical than artistically gifted on the broad scheme of the animation field, but I got a lot of heart ache in drawing till I get where I want to be. Its soooo discouraging and makes me feel so inferior though. *shakes head*
Anywho, where was I? Oh the Hiatus: Yep, I'll still be around but I certainly won't be editing/uploading much of anything for awhile. (But I'll comeback! I love video editing too much ;)
Oh, and several people have commented on my usual RTTE highlight video I've been doing.....um, yeah I intend on doing it for this latest 5th season someday but it won't be anytime soon I'm afraid. It took me 3 weeks just to watch it (I think I finally finished it last weekend? IDK) I have some thoughts on it but I won't digress here. IT was good but not better like how the previous 4 built up. I still need a song to edit to it as well but can't find one that sparks....
Okay, thats all I can say for now, gotta go back to animating, drawing, working in Maya, all that jazz. Sorry if this description sounded scattered; I AM scattered these days. *sighs*
PS: What in Thors name has YT been doing with its layout since I've been AWOL?? It SUCKS....

![HTTYD~Dancing in the Minefields
Well, this was suppose to be for Valentines Day, but obviously not. It was one of those spur of the moment project ideas. I finished it last Monday but delayed uploading it. Mainly cause I wanted my 50th vid to be the collab with hiccuptoothless94. (;
Soo, my goal on this vid was to focus on the Hiccup and Astrid relationship. Hopefully my first, but you know what...Im going to leave that decision up to you guys. If you think its Hiccstrid enough, then Ill title it. Meantime, interesting thumbnail; more like a spoiler *cough*. Anyway....
Footage: How To Train Your Dragon, Gift of the Night Fury, Riders of Berk [Episodes: 1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 11, 13, 14]
Song: Dancing in the Minefields by Andrew Peterson [cut]
Editor: Sony Vegas 12
Color Effect: MagicBullet- Crush Blue Edge (Had to remember ;)
HD recommended too.
Okay, so I started this vid Valentines week, Tuesday, but did not start until Wednesday the day before Valentines. I was going through a bit of a work crisis on my own so I was feeling pretty low that day/week. (Good news is its resolved now, btw) While working though, this played on the radio and it was just the song I needed to hear! Havent heard it in such a long time, but its a very emotional song to me. (This guy really knows how to put feelings into his voice :) I especially ♥ his words: But to lose your life for another Ive heard; is a good place to begin. Cause the only way to find your life is to lay your own life down.
I actually made over half of it (to about 1:24) that Wednesday but still not enough to finish on time and I did not want to rush it. I discovered this neat MagicBullet add-on with several unique color effects. I put one on the *Whole* vid to save time and give a soft, special appearance. Also played with the Chroma Keyer...alot. The color did not always look so pretty with it though *whoops* But okay I have to say, isnt 2:05-2:10 the most PERFECT Minefield?♥?♥ Ahh, its made for it! =D
I always wanted to put text with this song if I ever did it, but that was by far the HARDEST part to accomplish out of the whole thing. Oh and PLEASE forgive the typos I made in there. I swear, the instant Im off a spellchecker Im doomed :/ I guess I could have gone back in and corrected them, but it took 2 hrs to render; I really did not want to go through it again. This is my first time really adding the lyrics in the vid...and I totally suck at them so, gotta practice. I did leave some words out to make it feel more one on one between them.
This song is truthfully about marriage, but I cut off the first verse which was a dead give away to that fact. Its also a VERY deep religious song and I really wanted to connect on that with them. Through all the trials and tribulations they must turn back to God; depend on Him to make it through....together Dont give up on [God] And Astrid is trying to remind him of the Promise. The clips of the Touch scene also have a deeper meaning in here, but Ill let you my friends decide for yourselves. (You all are experts on interpreting the hidden depth messages in vids anyhow ;)
However, I do not want to give the same Idolatry feeling with them as was felt to some in Welcome Home. I just hope His presences is felt while watching this...as I felt (: HTTYD~Dancing in the Minefields](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/9H98dbt2UvU/mqdefault.jpg)
