This was my second entry into the AWA Masters contest which won me the green jacket and also kind of my swan song as I pretty much made only 2 videos after this one. This was my tribute to Miyazaki / Ghibli and some people said it felt like watching something at the Oscars. When I made my Far and Away / Kare Kano video I fell in love with John Williams’ Greatest Hits cd and always liked the movie Empire of the Sun. When I heard the song I was sold and knew I had to make something to it.
What I loved about this video was how I touched on almost all the series and even some of the more less seen Ghibli films. The one most haven’t seen has some of my favorite scenes in this video and that was Only Yesterday (Omohido Poro Poro). The video is somewhat self-indulgent and I know I will re-master this added in the lastest two Ghibli films.
