❝until we meet again, old friend❞
EDIT!!: for those wanting to know what the beginning says;
Name: Optimus Prime
Subject: The Last Prime
"Once a librarian in the Iacon Hall of Records, Orion Pax became curious and concerned of the questionable state of equality within the Cybertronians. It was here he met Megatronus and became inspired by his words. Megatronus soon became a mentor to the librarian. Later, stood in front of the Council with a new named Megatron, Orion explained how he believed violence was not the answer to true equality. The sparks of the Council were moved by Orion's words and believe that he was worthy of being a Prime. An upset, hurtful, and angered Megatron then joined with his followers and so began the war. As the battle took place Orion journeyed to the core of Cybertron hoping to reverse the ill effects, but instead was granted with the Matrix of Leadership. And thus, the last Prime was born.
This is the story of Optimus Prime."
ohgosh, im actually terribly nervous to upload this video mainly because the last time i did a voice over i failed miserably and told myself never again would i do this but i decided to do this one and i just pray that the story line isnt horrible Dx
so an anon on tumblr suggested this song and the idea to edit to it using either Optimus or OptimusxMegatron. I screamed and decided to edit with Optimus as ideas were flowing through my mind! but of course i had to throw in a hint bit of OptimusxMegatron ;DD
I spent about 2 days working on the audio alone as i had many ideas and had to play around with all the audio to find the most fitting. after that the clips took me about another 2 days and then it was just a matter of figuring out for the life of me how to do the beginning like i did (i know it looks bad, but i tried and i got so frustrated so im happy with it just being like that xD) & DO NOT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HOW MANY RENDERS I HAD TO DO IN AFTER EFFECTS TO GET THE FONT TO WORK LIKE THAT JUSTKAJSHLKDJHGKDSJHGDSGSDGJLKHSDG FRUSTRATION AT ITS FULLEST!!
Storyline: I pretty much poured my heart and soul into this storyline. I wanted to reflect the way I see Optimus and the reason why he means so much to me and i think i did that, im honestly not so sure anymore I havent stopped working on this video since i got the idea & my eyes and brain are pretty much fried. For the theme i pretty much wanted it to be like an archive. I wanted it to be like future Cybertronians, or us humans, got to see the past of Optimus Prime just as Orion got to see the past of Cybertron. Which explains the beginning. I hope i did that okay.. maybe.. possibly?? I only work with Sony Vegas here, im not a genius (p.s. yes i realize the the text isnt that readable at the beginning that was what i was going for)
I want to thank 2 people for helping me out extremely with this video. If it wasnt for them it probably wouldnt look or sound as good as it does now xD
So thank you to:
Op-fangirl-21: / op-fangirl-21 (for drawing me the datapad as im a terrible drawer and i would have never been able to do it as amazingly as you did, so THANK YOU!!! ♥)
MidNightProductionHD: / midnightproductionhd (for helping me out EXTREMELY on getting and learning the voice eraser tool so i could get rid of the background music, THANK YOU DARLING!!! ♥)
so i guess i shall now nervously sit here and wait to see how you all respond to this ^^;
