❛❛ Who can take my hand in the flood? ❜❜
✎ I did say I wanted to make another Raya vid after that first one. Here we are.
So, for the past 6 months, I was working on a contracted VFX project, with very long hours and tedious work to boot. To keep myself entertained while working on this, I started watching a bunch of video game campaigns since they are long and not to distracting....usually. One of the games I discovered was Horizon Forbidden West. After playing it for an hour, this beautiful cinematic opening credit scene with this unexpectedly soulful song played. You can watch it if you like here in 4K: youtube.com/watch?v=fjSvmzKaNBc
I was hooked before getting to this part of the game, but the melancholy song struck a cord with me....especially with all the pain I've gone through this past year alone. I've never seen a game with so many cut scenes that I actually WANTED to watch. It was like watching a tv show waiting each day for this guy to play through this long, gorgeous game! (It had recently been released).
The lore/story reminded me of Kumandra, but the main character (Aloy) is so much like Raya. (Even her voice!) She's a loner, an outcast, but a warrior, with long hair, and feels like she must carry the weight of the world on her shoulders all on her own. I didn't really have time to make a video but this song would not let me go so I finally caved in and made it.....I finished it right around completing the VFX project too. What a relief! Maybe now I can edit more since that's not sucking up all my free time.
If I had a PS5 I'd play this game. The mechanics, graphics, animations, stories.....so many hours I could waste. Guess its better I don't.

✎ Here, now this song can live rent free in your heads with Hiccup and Toothless! 😜
Its not the whole song. I trimmed it to be only the parts I felt matched the most, and I felt like doing; otherwise I might never had finished it. I still cant believe no one has made a vid with the song yet. (At least that I could find.)
For what its worth, I wasnt strict with making each of them into their respective duo roles; I just tried to match the song lyrics. BUT I will say Hiccup seems to lean into Mufasa and Toothless more Taka. Take that as you will. 🤭
I had planned to upload this earlier this month but the fires around LA had me petrified and I didnt feel like editing or anything. We were getting pretty boxed in at times, but thankfully, I didnt have to evacuate (as much as I would have liked) but its been really scary! And the air quality isnt great either. Praise God it finally rained this weekend and I feel more relaxed.
This video was quite fun to make and experiment with, I hope you enjoy it!

❛❛ Memories are more, than magic.... ❜❜
✎ FINALLY, its ready!! Ive been so excited to make this one for yall. I literally started it the night the song was released; I mean its Idina Menzel, it was begging to be edited with Elsa. 😃
Man can she BELT! I was afraid that I would run out of clips of Elsa singing those long, high notes.....how could I ever have doubted? The hardest part was choosing the most fitting ones. I get chills every time I hear it, ahehe.
Believe it or not, I actually havent seen the movie, Disenchanted. I did manage to watch the first one, Enchanted, for the first time and really enjoyed it. (Reminds me of Elf, but Disney, lol) Now that Ive finished one of the vids I can actually watch the movie its from.
I also took a poll a couple weeks ago and asked whether you liked the End Credits version, the Movie version, or both. (I knew better then to make both an option). Clearly both won, but the Movie version was next. However, I had a major head-start editing this one since it came out first so I hope you dont mind I finished it instead. *sorry*
In order to differentiate them since I dont normally do two vids with one song, I planned to make the movie version more raw, and this one a lyric vid with text......I tried yall, I really did. Text is just not my forte, but itll do. The sparkles were fun though; I hope you like them! I should have had this vid up last week but I kept having technical difficulties all week rendering this baby between Vegas and AE 😵
Not to mention the work week. Whew, its been a crazy past couple of weeks with other potentially life altering news I cant share yet. But PLEASE, Im asking you, to say a prayer for me if you can this week. I really need it, please. Thank you! 🤞🙏
Okay, now that Ive spilled a tiny bit of my soul to yall....have some cookies and enjoy this vid! 🍪
Hopefully I will have a Christmas vid next so stay tuned!

✎ I dont know what this is either..... 😆
I dont even know what to call it.
Sorry Ive been silent and delayed. We hit a milestone last month, 25k Subs guys!!!!!! I grew 5K in like two months thats insane!!! Seriously, Thank YOU all so much!!! 💖 I wish I had a more spectacular celebrator vid for the occasion. I have soooo many ideas in the works, especially with the live action, but soo little time these days.
This vid was finished like two weeks ago when you voted on it and yall motivated me to power through the last edits, but Ive just been busy working 2 jobs and burned out on the weekends to do the final steps of uploading.
Originally I saw a Star Wars vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv3adwh-Noo&list=PLjOZ4MeF9QhzAhlc7ZuThr1Yh8fVhh5VZ&index=65 by @AlexaLexie with this song (which is so cool you must watch btw!), and I thought it be neat to do a similar HTTYD vid with the you theme. But of course it got complicated and delayed and turned into my little experimental vid to learn audio/fx over the years. I think the ending sums up my feelings of what this vid is, lol.
Some of you may remember I teased this vid two years ago with several vids announcing my IRL Disney journey. I think it was the second most favorite to finish behind Youll be In My Heart. Finally after 2 years Ive completed both of these.
