Videos
I have a bit of a hobby of making music videos of FFXI. The first ones I ever did were after I had found the Race Converter program (changes client-side files to alter races on your display). I thought it would be incredibly silly to record video of a Kirin fight with everyone appearing to be Tarutaru. And indeed it was.

Another one of my hobbies is playing music based games, such as Dance Dance Revolution and beatmania IIDX. As a result, I have a rather large library of music of many different genres and types. So I came up with the idea of trying to match Bemani songs to different races and making music videos of them.

Kirin Race Swaps
These were all recorded during Kirin HNM fights with the Linkshell Mjollnir on Phoenix. There is no Hume video because the linkshell was disbanded on October 28th, 2005. Several months later, when I was invited to a new HNMLS, I just didn't have the heart to make a video with different people.

(Slightly) More Serious Videos
As there's only two of these (so far) and they're a bit more respectable than my early videos, I made a YouTube account and uploaded them. So these two can be either downloaded for local view or viewed on YouTube. (If viewed on YouTube, feel free to leave comments. ^^;)

Sphere: A CoP Music Video
After Mjollnir was dissolved, I had no more Kirin fights to make silly videos out of, so I didn't make anything for a long time. Then I finished the Chains of Promathia Missions. The cutscenes were just astounding. I knew I wanted to make a video of them. But what song? The answer came with beatmania IIDX RED (aka 11th style) and a song called Sphere. Even before I knew what the lyrics were (they're a bit hard to understand by just listening), I knew I was going to use it. It has a real heavenly, choir, cathedral sound which I found perfect for the story of Tavnazia and the lost city of Al'Taieu. After I found the lyrics, it just became a more perfect fit.


 * Note: There are rampant  SPOILERS  in this video regarding the Chains of Promathia Missions. Consider yourself warned.

Rakuen: A First Impression of Aht Urhgan
In this case, the inspiration went the other way around. This song really made me want to do a video for the Treasures of Aht Urhgan expansion. At this point, only the first chunk of content had been released. But, the song being shorter than Sphere, I thought it might work just to show what the first taste of Aht Urhgan was like. With many players touting the virtues of the new expansion's content, I thought this song and its lyrics might be appropriate.

(This was more a way for me to practice the basics of wiki, so I apologize if this sort of thing shouldn't be in a userpage. The only thing I could think that was interesting about me was possibly my videos ^^; )
