Dreamy Theater 2nd - Change Me (off-vocal) by shu-t ft Megurine Luka - Post-editing by xtokashx

In my uploading of Dreamy Theater 2nd titles I've missed, I decided to do something a little different with something familiar. My inspiration for this project comes from one of the more popular sequences I've made; the silhouette of Luka dancing in front of the moon in "Dancer in the Dark". It seems I've had more comments and messages about that sequence than any other, often with a hint of "more, more".

Watching the sultry choreography of "Change Me" made me think of Luka dancing to it as a silhouette...and better yet, have some poor spotlight guy (me) try to keep up with her moves. XD I also played with adding some sparkly bling to Luka's bikini, giving her a unique look not seen in any Project DIVA game. For the music, I went with the off-vocal version since I couldn't find a decent version of Luka singing it.

The final result is this in-game PV with some heavy post-production editing.

This was very much an experiment and looking back, I probably wouldn't do it again as the results still look unfinished for the amount of work it took. With so many quick cuts in the PV (there are over 150), continuity was the biggest challenge in making the spotlight effect look like it smoothly transitioned from one scene to the next.

I could have indeed done more to it. But by the end I was ready to put it aside and felt a need to move on to other projects. So I apologize if this still looks incomplete and rough around the edges.

Please feel free to share your thoughts and opinions.

Cheers and enjoy!
