I think everyone by now know what had happen, so I'm not going to explain it. It's painful for me to say and write it. For both of us. For everyone else that cared.
We needed to do something. We are editors and editing is our way of expressing ourselves. A few days ago I managed to see how united the community of AMV making really is. We should be united and stick together all the time.
When I found out about what had happened, I was more than shocked. I haven't cried so much since I was a kid... I needed to do something, so editing something for him sounded like the greatest idea. I wanted to do this with Debbie, because I knew how she was feeling and what she was going through. I'm thankful that she agreed to do this and this collab helped us both a lot.
Deb: Thanks for inviting me to do this with you Eve. I know we're both at a loss for words. Editing this definitely made me feel somewhat better. I felt as though, when editing this, I could almost see Magnus smiling and saying "Finally! You're editing again! :P" Seeing the dork face of his in the beginning of this video made me tear up again. It all still feels so unreal, only when it stares me at the face does it hit me that he's gone. I hope you somehow see this Magnus. I'm sorry for everything I wasnt able to do for you. Im sorry I didnt spend more time with you.. I regret not being a better friend as you always were to me. You'll always be in our memories. You dork. You genius. You insane amazing wonderful person...♥ Thanks for being who you were..
His piano skills are gorgeous, and when I thought about editing a video for him, this cover came to my mind. It's his cover of Yurima's "River flows in you".
The footage used in the video is:
Eve: The place, promised in our early days; She and her cat; 5cm per second; Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu; Myself,Yourself; Bokura ga Ita; Air TV/movie; Secret Garden (drama); Ano hi Mita(...).
