Spyro: DotD AMV - Through the Fire and Flames
- 15 years ago
I'm only uploading this here because Youtube didn't want it (where I usually hang out anyway). I might get hated on by the Guitar Hero crowds, but let me explain the background for it.
During the Christmas period, while looking at random GH videos, I thought I'd see some of the more insane charts from Guitar Hero 3. Obviously that meant running into DragonForce's "Through the Fire and Flames", and over several listens I started to fall in love with it.
At the same time, I was doing my first playthrough on The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, and the closer I looked at the pair, the more I realised that the song's lyrics managed to reflect so much of the game's scenario.
And then, two weeks ago, I made a decision - I had to test the theory out by crafting an AMV for it!
Before I begin, it should be known that I'm not usually much of an AMV person. I've only made one other prior to this (Starfox Forever) and like then it was fun to work on. Mind, I love seeing them when they're really well done though.
Whatever happens, I spent a very insane amount of time on it - the first week was spent on planning and mapping out what kind of sequences to put where, and the second was spent on recording my third 100% playthrough (which took a whole 7 hours!!); then these past three days, it was a case of looking into the footage and putting all the pieces together. Man, it was very time consuming! O_o
Interesting, there's 2 days left til my second anniversary on YT. I'll have something ready, I assure you. In the meantime, thanks for looking at the vid and I'll see you later :)
