Yo! :D this AMV (Birth Right) is participated in AMVNEWS's LEVELUP09' CONTEST Thе contest is opened for pairs of AMV makers, Pro+Novice. A teams goal is to create a small AMV through joint efforts, with the assumption that Pro doesnt do editing and does not work on effects but does what he/she can to support the Novice technically. And my Pro was "De29v101L" the winner of AkrossCon2009 with "Midnight Carnival" so .. special thanks to him ;D the AMV isn't that good even after 2 monthes of hard-lazy working ...anyways i guess things are improving for me =D De29v101L (comment): Well, let's get to it... I had the idea of this video long ago, but because of my mega-laziness - hardly would it ever be made. However, this great contest turned out, in which I made someone else make a video for me. -) Overall there are some little defects, but personally I like it very much. -) There were some things that I had problems explaining even on Russian, not to mention English. There were lots of kilobytes of text. The video is a dynamic action, emphasized on atmosphere and a little bit of story. I hope in his next works author will show himself to be a great video-maker.

IF YOU LIKED THIS CHECK OUT THE OTHER VIDS ON OUR CHANNEL!!!!! We here at the CGF Cabal have gotten a lot of complaints and allegations about there being 'subliminal messages' in this video involving self mutilation and suicide- most of which have been flooding from a site called 'abovetopsecret.com'. Let it be known that there are no such intended messages. It is an excerpt from a video about schizophrenia. Why anyone would suspect that we want our audience dead is beyond us. Please stop with the allegations and conspiracy theories that we want people to kill themselves, you're missing the point by a mile and making yourself out to be a tool. Video Credits include archive.org and: www.youtube.com www.youtube.com www.youtube.com www.youtube.com Music is by Tycho, "the disconnect", "past is prologue" and "The Daydream"
