NONE OF THE MATERIAL BELONGS TO ME; THIS VERSION OF THE SONG "MAD WORLD", ORIGINALLY WRITTEN BY TEARS FOR FEARS, IS SUNG BY ADAM LAMBERT, AND THE ANIME IS PRINCESS TUTU, CREATED BY IKUKO ITOH. I HAVE NO LEGAL AFFILIATION WITH EITHER AND DO NOT COMBINE FOR PROFIT.
Oh boy. Um. So. I was a huge Adam Lambert fan during this most recent season of American Idol, and so upon exhausting Youtube listening to all the performances of his I could find (anyone else see that awesome version of The Prayer he did for his church? I ADORE that he's Jewish. XDDD), I went to ITunes and bought the Season 8 favorite Adam Lambert studio tracks, including Black or White, Whole Lotta Love, and this song which has pretty much become his main single, Mad World. My mother and I being huge Lambert fans, I decided I'd make an AMV for one of his songs, as most of the songs on here are accompanied by a single picture, which no offense have little visual interest after a while. I honestly hadn't thought Adam's voice would suit Fakir as well as it does, but I think I like the combination: I don't think this vid is perfect by a mile (the beginning's ripple timing was especially bitchy to try to do), but I did my best to show the darker, sadder side of the Princess Tutu series through the eyes of our resident knight and writer, Fakir. I hope you enjoy~!
All around me are familiar faces,
Worn out places, worn out faces...
Bright and early for their daily races;
Going nowhere, going nowhere...
And their tears are filling up their glasses;
No expression, no expression...
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow;
No tomorrow, no tomorrow...
And I find it kind of funny,
I find it kind of sad,
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had...
I find it hard to tell you;
I find it hard to take;
When people run in circles,
It's a very, very...
Mad World, Mad World...
Children waiting for the day they feel good:
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday...
Made to feel the way that every child should:
Sit and listen, sit and listen...
Went to school and I was very nervous,
No one knew me, no one knew me...
Hello, teacher, tell me, what's my lesson?
Look right through me, look right through me...!
And I find it kind of funny,
I find it kind of sad,
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had,
I find it hard to tell you;
I find it hard to take;
When people run in circles,
It's a very, very...
Mad World, Mad World...
Mad World, Mad World....

Yeah, I know, ANOTHER MEP part. Dont worry, guys, I am working on a full video as I type, I just finally got this done and figured I should upload it. This MEP, hosted by the loverly crowprincess14, is all about crack ships and if you think MY couple is weird, take a look at Moones95s, OtherworldlyArtists, or crowprincess14s parts. Their pieces are super-epic-WTF. XDDD But yeah, Autor and Hermia...one, I figured working with Autor would be fun, and I thought that Hermia having adorable blushy faces would help. Admittedly, though, this was tricky to do, since most of Hermias shots have Ahiru or Lysander in them originally Id wanted to have more of a plot here, such as Autor not liking that Hermia is hanging out with Lysander or being all creepy-stalkerish until Hermia finally breaks down and goes out on a date with him, but that lack of suitable clips from both characters made me scrap the idea. Maybe if the piece had been longer and/or wasnt so upbeat, I could have explored it more. Oh well! I hope you enjoy!")

YES, I AM A DORK FOR JOHNNY DEPP...like the rest of the world, I dont doubt. XD But really, I would like to think of myself as a passionate fan rather than a rabid fangirl given that I truly do respect his acting ability and how much he throws himself into the very diverse and creative characters that he has played. And of course he looks to be a very funny, very intelligent, and very flexible man as well, making him in my mind the best kind of actor there is one that is not only likable to an audience, but likable to directors and other actors. That seemed to make him the perfect person for me to choose to honor in jessegoodwin263s MEP celebrating our favorite celebrities. I wasnt able to represent ALL of the roles Johnny has played in this (thatd be next to impossible to do, I think, in 40 seconds) I was disappointed I couldnt feature Finding Neverland, Sweeney Todd, Chocolat, or Sleepy Hollow, but it was nice that I didnt have to use Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (sorry Johnny, sorry Tim Burton, I just didnt care for it that much)...but I think the movies I chose worked best for the lyrics. The rest of the footage is material I got off of my PotC DVDs most of them are bloopers, though the first is from the opening of PotC 1 at Disneyland. I tried something a little different with the color flashes, I think they worked out pretty well, though the timing was a bit of a pain. Overall Im really happy I could give a small tribute to one of my very favorite actors, who as far as Im concerned deserves just as much credit for his talent as for his looks love you, Johnny!")

Completed MEP: http://youtu.be/MNI9NJ0TCUA
Aaaaand back to the MEP pieces. XDDD;; Sorry, folks, but I think youre gathering by now how excited I am to be a part of a PT MEP group, let alone with so many talented AMV makers with so many awesome ideas. This awesome idea is courtesy of crowprincess14 the theme is that of an older PT character sympathizing with the troubles of a younger character, and my choices were Paulamoni (my rep character in the group) and Ahiru. In this, Paulamoni sees Ahiru pining after Mytho and then, recalling her own teenhood romance, sees Ahiru move on and start a friendship/romance with Fakir. Younger!Paulamoni is represented by Kiki of the fame of Studio Ghiblis Kikis Delivery Service...half because I wanted someone to be a younger Paulamoni so it would fit the song and half because...well, look at Kiki, doesnt she look like a little Paulamoni?! XDD In my head, Tombo couldnt be Paulo...but I could see him growing up into Karon, so I guess Paulamoni/Karon is my new crack ship. XDDD;;; Anyway, I hope you enjoy if you want to see the full thing, subscribe to CourageousFateStudio! We have several projects that should be completed and posted in the next month.")
