✎ Great Odin Ghost y'all!!! It finally dropped and I have been an absolute mess 😭
Ahh, I have to say, I am NOT disappointed in it. Granted there are some design choices on Toothless that are a little off I'm just relieved he has so much expression and life. I am also now confident that Mason will make a convincing Hiccup, and overall everything looked very promising.
I understand people have mixed feelings on a LA adaption (I do as well), but I feel more happy and excited to get the chance to relieve the movie anew again after 15 years. Plus, the fact that we are getting the same director (Dean Deblois), same composer (John Powell) and also Gerald Butler is reprising Stoick, I think its going to be special. 🙏🥹

![Last of the Real Ones [Reylo]
Okay....so I manged to pull an old project outta the shadows and make one final upload before school starts. HA!
Ive had A LOT of inspiration for Star Wars lately. This was the 1st one I started once The Last Jedi came out in HD and Ive been dragging my feet on the last 10 secs I suppose. Eh, it always looks better in my head than on YT but oh well.
I FREAKIN CANNOT WAIT FOR EPISODE IX THIS YEAR!!!! OMG, next to HTTYD3, & Frozen 2, THIS movie has me most hyped. I guess its my most anticipated live action film you could say. Dont get me wrong, I am SUPER PUMPED for Marvel with End Game but.....IDK, Star Wars has more of my heart right now. Maybe it was how Infinity War ended. It was good but didnt it leave ya with a kinda numb, dead feeling inside when you walked out of the theater?? I know The Last Jedi is the most criticized, hated Star Wars film by most, but for me, it is my FAVORITE! And when I walked outta that theater after first watching it, Im still reeling from it all to this day. xD
Also this is my 2nd vid after upgrading to Vegas Pro 16. I would say yay but, eh ever since MAGIX bought out Vegas from Sony I feel its gotten much more unstable. Editing vids now is such an ordeal; it seems to crash all the time now! Hopefully itll get patched up. On the plus side, I have a ton load of new effects I dont know what to do with. I used several here....maybe thats why it crashes every 5 mins. Ugh.
Notice anything rather different in this vid compared to my others though???
Give up???
I kept the letterbox (black bars), or made it non-fullscreen. That is a first since my very very very 1st HTTYD vid. Why you ask? Well, Ive been into the cinematic editing style and trying to mimic it. Black bars isnt necessary but it seems cooler. The key technique that makes it cinematic IMHO, are Action Cuts/Transitions. So thats what I was practicing here...at least 1:03 to the end. Thats the only part Id say to qualify as being more cinematic, but its still a mess. Cinematic has become my favorite style of editing I would like to master xD

![*A Merry Christmas Wish to Friends* with HTTYD & ROTG
Whew, I made it in time for Christmas!! (just barely, Ha! :) This is a another Christmas *special* I made with my Vegas trial dedicated to my 11 BFF here. Your all listed in the order I met each of you, and I tried to make it as even/balanced as I knew how. Matching your colors/personalities and the scenes that remind me most of you. Most are screenshots I made, but some are animated. I hope you enjoy it (and like your clips I guess ;)

No way, this was ONLY 30 secs?? Oh thats unbelievable, it felt MUCH longer (I did not even realize till I rendered it!) Yes, and I made my first layers!! (4 in all). Thanks again Wolf for the snowflakes effect!! I ♥ it!
I wanted to use more of ROTG clips then just from the trailer, but I cant get Vegas to open it. For the last clip I took and rendered it from WLMM then put it in Vegas. BTW, I have SV12 permanently now ;) Has to be my shortest description ever *A Merry Christmas Wish to Friends* with HTTYD & ROTG](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m_n026GH8F8/mqdefault.jpg)


![Hiccup&Toothless~By your Side (Happy Birthday hiccuptoothless94!)
A special present for one of the closest friends Ive had the honor n grace to know here on youtube, and share a one-of-a-kind remarkable friendship with, hiccuptoothless94.
http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4WT1y12XcrNKjFI89FGvxg
A wonderful passionate person who is sincere and loyal; trusted friend and light to those around her. A girl who is respected and admired by many, possessing an incredible talent and unique style all her own that continues to be an inspiration to us all with HTTYD. Who can dig deep down into the heart n loving soul between Hiccup and Toothless. Especially Hiccup (;
If it wasnt for you I probably would still have been sitting on the sidelines dreaming and scheming of editing. My first attempt in making a vid failed miserably and I gave up. Finding you was like opening a new door, or a light of hope inside me. Thinking: Man, if she can edit vids like that with WLMM then why cant I? I was so captivated by you, and your work! (I think you had 15 vids at that time :) Getting to know you, now 1.5 years, understanding your shy yet very personal personality, I feel very blessed and fortunate to have met you. To me, your like the sister I never had being an only child. So I want to show you my deep gratitude and affection for your friendship and all youve done for me! For always thinking of me, understanding, and caring! For sharing your glorious love toward Hiccup&Toothless, all things HTTYD, and the Circle! For all our little comments, chats, PMs, collabs, and millions of cherished memories in between!! Thank you my sugar sweet friend! (:
The first time I heard this song it made me think of you. For one its by Lifehouse, and any song by them reminds me of you and takes me back to your 2 vids by them as well:
HTTYD: Storm- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_5bUExFuHI
Hiccup & Toothless/Rapunzel & Flynn~You & Me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTxbUzLmYko
Second the lyrics and title of this song seem to have your name all over it to me. Not only with Hiccup and Toothless bond (and perfect Touch scene moment just for you ;), but also with our friendship in ways! Just wanted to tell you, Im by your side and sympathize greatly over your loss too; send up a prayer to God with your name! *wink wink, nudge nudge* I tried to focus on Hiccups perspective a lot but in fact I aimed to make it as if Toothless was speaking to Hiccup. (But it varies of course; sometimes they even parallel. You know how inconsistent I am ;)
Happy Birthday again hiccuptoothless94! Ive been making a little extra something for ya, but its not quite done since I was focusing on this gift mainly *Hugs*
Apologies its so late! It took an hour to render off Vegas and another hour to upload. Must be all the effects; I do believe this is my most effect-filled vid or since Youll be in my Heart or Minefields. Maybe its because it is for you? You FILL me with inspiration! In fact I made this in about 5 days! I know, thats hard to believe, I cant believe it myself but here it is! Once I started I couldnt stop; I ♥ this song!! And I truly enjoyed myself editing it; even though it was under a week. (It didnt hit me till Monday your b-day was THIS Saturday, Ha!)
I tried to do a little bit of everything here: New fonts, quotes, color effects, overlays, layers, cookie cutter, and played a lot with the pan n zoom. Finally got the hang of the last two! So hopefully you will notice them (;
The only thing I guess I didnt do was VOs. I had a couple but muted them since they didnt sound right. (Now I wish I had them :( I remember the gift I made for you last year (You are not Alone) was the first vid I did with VO and discovered how to do it with WLMM! I learn something every year because of you, hehe =)
I hope you will enjoy it my friend; Ill be thinking of you and have a blessed day!! =D

![HTTYD~Youll Be In My Heart ♥Special♥
Well now, this vid is going to celebrate several special events!
First off, this song right here I can say is my ALL TIME FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIMES! (Only I mean the original Phil Collins version) *Its TIMELESS!* The VERY first AMV I saw of HTTYD was this vid/song right here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dP_vcsI01TM&feature=g-list&list=PL5B81B39FB22895C1
The feeling I get when watching this are like...well the feeling you get after you come out of the theater, and it NEVER gets old! *most memorable experiences* As you will probably notice, I mimicked it...a lot. Thats why I could never make a vid of Phil Collins version (All I see are those scenes like HTTYD with its own score) But this version by Celtic Woman is the closest thing to it Ive heard! *Yes, you better believe I had some tears editing this! Their voices are so heavenly* Though it STILL does not compare to Phil Collins (Love his voice!) and Its missing the 2nd verse which was my favorite:
Why cant they understand the way we feel?
They just dont trust, what they cant explain.
I know were different, but deep inside us, were not that different at all.
Okay, I FIRMLY believe this song should be the theme song for these two! Its just too PERFECT to me! The first verse I made solely for Hiccup in his POV while the second verse and the majority of the vid is in Toothless POV :)
Soo, for the 2nd reason: it was only fitting for me to make my 1st, non-holiday vid with Vegas with my FAVORITE song (Well, close to it ;) What do you think? I overdosed on the layers didnt I? Sorry, Ill contain myself...theres just soo much to learn and Im a little too eager. Ive been working on this for 2 weeks I think, and its taking an hour to upload! Oh I better not be late for this! *Now that IS MOST embarrassing*
Now for the 3rd reason which is the most ironic, 1 year, 46 vids with WLMM later, I make this right smack in time for my anniversary....and I didnt even know it! *No, I swear it was not planned!* If it wasnt for my wonderful friend HTTYD2014 and his sweet wishes...quite publicly I might add, I would have let it slip on by *Silly me, I cant keep tract of my OWN dates* So yep, this is my HTTYD anniversary vid too now! (And Thank you HD14 for sharing that little detail with me/us/everyone, lol ;)
Okay, and for the 4th reason: Its also made special for my mother, for her Birthday....tomorrow! (Shed KILL me if I said her age ;) But Im also uploading it for her today (Which WAS planned I might add) for some personal reasons.
Finally the 5th reason: (You should all know this by now) Youre ALL in my Heart!! Naturally a vid as special as this is dedicated to ALL my special friends/followers here and most significantly, The Circle: hiccuptoothless94, HTTYD2014, inhonoredglory, iVishu, and WhispertheWolf! I never could have dreamed Id met people like you all (Saying this OFFICIALLY 1 year later) who would become such devoted and loyal friends! You are all special n unique in your own way and each hold a special place in my heart! Thank you very much =D
Alright, with that all said, here are the spec I always include: (Sometimes I wonder why)
Footage: How To Train Your Dragon, Gift Of The Night Fury, Riders Of Berk [eps: 1, 3, 5, 6, 12, 13]
Song: Youll Be In My Heart by Celtic Woman
Quote: OMG, I forgot to add the quote! *Major face palm! If I embarrass myself one more time today Ill just have to crawl back in my little hole*
Okay, (Do I still have enough room) cause I got a question: Im a little scared to ask since the last time I tried, no one responded so I felt I must have overstepped my limits. There are 2 things Ive observed your never suppose to ask on YT. 1: Where you got your footage and 2: How you got your footage. (But Im pretty desperate; your my last hope!) How in this vast world do you rip DVDs in HD? Ive researched, tried n failed on and off for OVER a year and still unsuccessful! Please If someone knows and can help me, send a PM or something! Please? :)
