NONE OF THE MATERIAL BELONGS TO ME; THE ANIME PRINCESS TUTU IS COPYRIGHTED TO IKUKO ITOH, AND THE SONG "JAI HO" AS WRITTEN BY A.R. RAHMAN IS FROM THE FILM "SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE." I HAVE NO LEGAL ASSOCIATION WITH EITHER AND DO NOT COMBINE FOR PROFIT.
Okay, I really wish I had gotten this in yesterday, which my stretched-thin and sleepy mind now realizes was in fact the 8th, my friend Manda's birthday, and not the 7th. XD At any rate, I suppose I'm only a day late, rather than a lifetime, and better late than never. This song I loved ever since I first saw the credits of Slumdog Millionaire in the theaters, and I knew as soon as I got the soundtrack I wanted to do something with it...and at the end of the track on the CD is the romantic finale that accompanies the end of the movie, so what else would be appropriate but to do something especially cute and Fakiru-y for the ending? X3 I shortened the song, which originally is over 5 minutes long (yeesh!), and one part of action-sync took forever to get right, but overall I'm pretty pleased! I hope you all enjoy...and much happy birthdayness to you, Manda!

Yaaaay, volume 2! *ducks more rotten fruit*
1) Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory // Dreams to Dream Book to Movie MEP ~ This is the third part Id taken for this MEP since one of the members had had to drop their part, and I dont think its nearly good as the other two (the piece that follows this and the Wizard of Oz bit from my last compilation) since I couldnt find many good illustrations for the book that I could place alongside scenes from the film, but it was nice to give some kudos to this movie, which is a classic and I adore it and Gene Wilder jbdvgfatiwbfwukgfyavjha. X333
2) The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe // Dreams to Dream Book to Movie MEP ~ This is the second part I did, and I think Im the happiest with this one, half because of the awesome animations of original Narnia book illustrations that I found intermingled with special feature documentaries on the DVD. Plus I love giving love to this movie, which is one of my favorite live-action Disney films of all time. I just love the choices Andrew Adamson made that in my opinion only improved the original material and brought it to life better than I couldve imagined, and although I wish the two that followed it had kept that same charm (not that I didnt enjoy them a lot, I did), I do hope that when the copyright issue with the series and Disney is handled, we can see more of this series of films. I DEMAND ME SOME SILVER CHAIR.
3) Satsuki and Yasuko (My Neighbor Totoro) // Wind Beneath My Wings Mothers Day MEP ~ Another one of three parts I had to do for a MEP! And yay, I get to show Ghibli love in the process. Although the mother in Totoro doesnt appear much (the father gets much more screen time, and I love him a lot too, hes a kick-ass dad), she interestingly is almost a main player in the movie, since her being in the hospital and their father working is the reason why Satsuki and her sister Mei get into so many magical adventures. And the climax of the film goes down all because Mei believes Yasuko is deathly ill and she runs away from home in an attempt to get her some corn that she thinks might make her mother better. So thats the perspective here Satsuki tells Yasuko all about her wonderful adventures with Totoro and the Catbus, like the film, and like in the film, Yasuko gets to see the truth in her stories.
4) Violet and Helen Parr (The Incredibles) // Wind Beneath My Wings Mothers Day MEP ~ Speaking of awesome moms, how about Helen Parr/Elastigirl? She is just epic in every sense of the word. Ill have to use her in more videos if I can, I just love her.
5) Shizuku and Seiji (Whisper of the Heart) // A Whole New World OTP MEP ~ The idea behind this MEP is to represent our favorite OTP from any canon, so, of course, my mind went straight to Ghibli. XDD Hahaha. No, I actually had been very close to using Fakir and Ahiru from Princess Tutu, but...I have to be honest, this is my favorite Ghibli film of all time, and its all because of these characters. Theyre both just so likable and I can only dream of having a love story like theirs. Not enough people have seen this movie, so I just had to represent it.
6) Tiana and James (The Princess and the Frog) // Youre My Hero Fathers Day MEP ~ Id never heard this song before going onto Youtube searching for a fathers day song, but you know, it kind of got me emotional. Its a very sappy, but nice song. For someone who actually has a lot of daddy issues, it is hard sometimes for me to be very lovey-dovey with my own father, but it makes me all the happier to see good fathers and the love they can show with their families, and Tiana and Jamess supportive, loving relationship is just what Ive always dreamed of, even if it was short-lived.
7) Tiana (The Princess and the Frog) and Prince Christopher (Rodgers and Hammersteins Cinderella) // Somewhere Out There Crossover MEP ~ Weird match-up, I know...the whole theme behind this is a romance between an animated Non-Disney character and a character from another canon, whether anime, live-action film, TV series, whatever, and I wont lie, the visual similarity between Tiana in Charlottes dress and Cinderella!Brandy (would that be Branderella?) in her ball dress inspired this whole damn thing. LOOK AT THAT. They look practically identical. And as well, Paulo Montalban is smexy. Whatever happened to him?
8) Dream Along with Mickey Disney Tribute MEP ~ Pretty self-explanatory...anything and everything related to the Disney company is here, whether the parks, Marvel, the Broadway shows, whatever! I loved being able to put so many salutes in this. :)
9) Touch the Sky 100+ Subscribers MEP ~ Yeah, who knew our tiny little MEP studio already has so many followers? To celebrate our milestone, we threw out the rulebook, so this is pretty much a mash MEP...which meant I somehow ended up staying confined to Non-Disney and Ghibli. Lol. XD But I am overall decently pleased with how it came out.")
![Everything You Want [[BETTER QUALITY]]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LZsIgxi2SBU/mqdefault.jpg "Everything You Want [[BETTER QUALITY]]
NONE OF THE MATERIAL BELONGS TO ME: THE SONG EVERYTHING YOU WANT IS BY VERTICAL HORIZON, AND THE ANIME PRINCESS TUTU BELONGS TO THE MARVELOUS IKUKO ITOH. I DO NOT COMBINE THEIR WORKS WITH THE IDEA OF PROFIT, MERELY OF ENJOYMENT.
Hoookay, finally fixed the quality: I posted this yesterday but oh my GAWD did the combo of Roxios settings and YT screw up the quality. XD; So here we are, much better.
First off, you may notice a little red pegasus in the corner of this vid: this is a test of a watermark (not unlike the little green hat luigirules64 does for her videos) in an attempt to better keep track of my videos and keep them from getting stolen. Hopefully its not too distracting, but I figured itd be better than an obnoxious border. XD; This video is mostly focused around the Mytho/Ahiru/Fakir triangle in the second season, with Ahirus conflicting feelings in her affection for Mytho and her endearment for Fakir, all through Fakirs POV. Hopefully the rest of the video will be easy to follow, as it basically follows the storyline of the second season: doing the timing to a rock song was really hard, especially with the multiple black-outs in the beginning and end, but there are some sections in this that Im incredibly pleased with. I did shorten the song, mostly to compress the amount of clips I needed to use, to keep the video small enough to render, and to keep myself from going insane after how much work the beginning and ending took to sync. XD;; Hope you enjoy!")
![[CFS] Come Little Children Halloween MEP part](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/O4Qn2mPh_3E/mqdefault.jpg "[CFS] Come Little Children Halloween MEP part
YES, I AM WORKING ON A FULL VIDEO (a trailer *and* a remake of a very old video that was blocked, actually) AND YOU WILL SEE IT SOON, I PROMISE. XD;;; This MEP just has to be done by Halloween, so I thought Id get it out of the way ASAP, especially since Ive joined a local singing group called the Encore Vocal Ensemble (find them on YT here: http://www.youtube.com/user/encorevocalensemble ) and I will be busy getting ready for my first show with them all of October. But yeah, thisll be our Halloween MEP for CFS a creepy little MEP to this lovely cover of a song from Hocus Pocus, which was originally sung by Sarah Jessica Parker and is here sung by YTs own Katethegreat19 (go to the original vid here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKlsUrfbiE0 ). The story (which I wonder if ANYONE will see other than me) is that one night Fakir follows a group of ghosts into the mist and meets the beautiful ghost Giselle. She dances out of the sorrow of losing her love, the Ghost Knight, who she thinks was reincarnated as Fakir. Fakir is shocked by this, but is so hypnotized by her beauty that he is frozen against her advances...it turns out, however, that this is all just a dream in Little!Fakirs mind. Is Fakir really the Ghost Knight, or is it Giselles misconception? Is Giselle sending a message to Little!Fakir, is it a premonition, or is it just some random delusional dream? Who can say...")
![[Vidlet] Chasing Cars (Peter/Alice)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/P5uyVr6K0U8/mqdefault.jpg "[Vidlet] Chasing Cars (Peter/Alice)
Yes, indeed, this is another vidlet present for another of my fellow DFGS teammates, xxMintoStarxx I wasnt sure what kind of music you preferred, so hopefully this song is okay...it just screamed the kind of innocent, romantic dreaminess that I associate so with this ship. I originally was going to add a bit more to this vid, where Alice dreams of her and Peter as adults falling in love (their adult forms wouldve been Aurora and Phillip), but I felt like I wouldve had to make it longer and more dramatic than it needed to be, so I kept it simple. Hope you like it, Minto dear!
The storyline itself should be pretty easy to figure out Peter and Alice are just relaxing in the meadow one golden afternoon when Alice dozes off in the flowerbed and dreams of Peter taking her to a magical garden. Peter then wakes her up, Alice tells him about her dream, and Peter understandably doesnt know what to make of it, so the two laugh it off and head on their way.")
