  • Comments: In the production of this video, we tried to create an atmosphere of non-stop, adrenaline pumping action to satisfy the hardcore bloodthirsty Kenshin fans out there. Each beat of the music perfectly matches the movements of Kenshin's action sequence. Furthermore, at the end of video, Kenshin experiences a flashback which in some ways explains his motivation for all his actions. This in some ways sets this video apart from some of the other ones which are filled only with fighting.

    The purpose of this video(which we planned to be ten minutes long) was to provide the viewer with the feeling of watching the entire Kenshin OAV series squeezed into 6 minutes. We wanted to emphasize certain points in the Kenshin OAV that have not been explored before.
    As a result, viewers of the video should be forewarned of the shocking sequences contained within this video. Be Forewarned, This is no ordinary Kenshin video, and anyone who views it as such would be shock at the contents contained within the video after the initial viewing.

    Technical aspects of this video was probably one of the most difficult task in the production process, being that this is our first ever entry into the world of anime music videos. A key area in the process that we payed close attention to was the flow of the video. We tried to make each scene flow or transition from one to the next, without any hiccups. When viewing the video, we hope that you'd be unable to notice scene changes. LOL, that's probably impossible but we tried our best.

    Besides paying attention to the flow of the video, our second concern was consistency in our scenes. In the entire duration of the video, the sequences span across day and night. We decided to go with the night scenes first since it seems to be the most popular among everybody on here (With all the best fight scenes and stuff *wink* *wink*). Then we kicked into the day scenes were the rest of the battle scenes took place to finish the video.

    In terms of OAV videos, we think this is definitely one to keep an eye out for. We recommend watching it at least 2-3 times since you'll be able to pick up different things each time. Take it from us, we're still picking up different meanings and scenarios and we're the ones that made it! We probably logged in countless hours on this movie, well, around 2 months worth, and we think it totally rocks. We put alot of hard work on this video and we're ready to back our video up and guarantee that it's totally worth the download. In the making of this video, we infused the video with the spirit of the three I's (Intelligence, Integrity, and Intensity) Don't judge us, judge the video. WhoooOOOOOOOoooooo!!!!
