"Here" - Equilibrium Music Video (Christian Bale)

[kristin1228.livejournal.com]

Hello everyone,

I just made a music video for Equilibrium. Living in a cold, futuristic world where emotions are forbidden and kept dormant through the use of drugs, John Preston's feelings are awakened after missing his usual dose. This video features Preston's conquest to overthrow the regime and come to term with his own feelings. You can find it here or at the alternate sources below:



Note: To save bandwidth, this video is also available here: http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3JDO0QXB3ZAHW2S9MM49N1BS8S Download instructions: To download right-click the link button and press save target as. Like my American Psycho video, this one is also in DIVX format. Download the free codec here. To disable the logo, go to the DivX directory under your Program Files and then click the configuration utility - quality settings - Disable Logo.

Feedback is most welcome and enjoy!

Yay, thank you all SO much! I'm so pleased with the wonderful feedback for this vid! :)

Yes, I totally plan to make a vid for Batman Begins when the dvd hits stores in October! That's the movie that got me hooked on CB. ;)

I have made over a 100 vids, so there's plenty of others to check out. Most of them are for my favorite tv series "Forever Knight" and some of my favorite vampire films (also some Hannibal/Clarice ones). You can access them all here. If the server is too sluggish, perhaps try later at night or I can send more vids by msn messenger. My contact ID is kris1228@earthlink.net

(sorry I know I should not tempting others to break the law, but I have not really found a good BB vid yet...)

[kristin1228.livejournal.com]

Sorry, but all the versions online are crappy screener versions. I'm a quality freak. LOL... What BB vids have you found out of curiosity? I found one called Hero.

[ender24]

since I am most of the tims just a SV fan, I found in a forum an crossover vid between BB / SV, its called worlds finest heroes or so...

I don't say this about too many videos but this one is a keeper for me. Simply excellent. The interlude with the orchestrated music was a nice touch and I love how it jumps into the song (great song choice by the way, never heard it before). The editing was on point and the lyrics of the song were perfectly correlated with the visuals. I also liked the filters used on some of the clips (1:45-2:06) which gave them a very unique look. The half second off-color cuts of the drug interspersed throughout was also a great touch. It's inspiring to see this kind of effort put into a video. I know it must have been some hard work and it's appreciated.

Thank you so much for your flattering review AJ! Btw, I really enjoyed your EQ vid as well. The song was an excellent choice and the video was very well paced!

Re: Excellent

[aj2k.livejournal.com]

Thank you :) I've been meaning to do that video in better quality though. When I first made the EQ vid 2-3 years ago I only had a Pentium II PC with barely any processing power whatsoever so all of my videos from back then are in low quality. A year ago I finally built a super PC that's capable of capturing and processing HQ video so I've been meaning to re-create all of my older videos to match the quality of my new ones. Newer projects keep getting in the way though lol.

Re: Excellent

[kristin1228.livejournal.com]

Well, if you do that please announce it here! I'd love to collect a HQ version. :)

Good luck with your future projects AJ!

Wow. Your vid is gorgeous. I love the blending of different styles and what you did with the light. Thank goodness I know how to not blink for long periods of time. ;)
