My third comedy video to date and the second pairing video (if you don’t count Kurosagi). This one actually came together by request. I’ve loaned my webdesign/ coding skills to lovesongforums.net to create a site called Hanbun. The site is a tribute to TomaPi (and fans). The administrator of this forum asked me to do a Tomapi video, so I did!

This video actually has an entire story told in about 3 minutes. Yamapi likes Toma, so he confesses it by giving Toma a letter. At first Toma is completely bewildered, he doesn’t know what to do! After consulting himself, he does find out he feels the same. This moment of hesitation has Yamapi doubting his motivation. From there on, the video has an open ending… so Tomapi fans can think up their own ending (hah).

By far the best parts in this fanvideo are ‘the bathroom incident’ and ‘the cut and replace Maki pun’. Maki’s face would have been visible in a frame rounded with flowers and I basically replaced this with Yamapi’s face from Proposal Daisakusen. The bathroom incident is where Toma goes into the bathroom only to find Yamapi sitting there bathing. Originally this was Maki’s character in Hanazakari taking a shower. Cut-And-Replace = instant comedy magic.

The technically most challenging part was getting three way split screens timed ‘on-beat’. It’s pretty difficult to do because the effects require some insight on how to arrange them on the timeline.

    Why sure, send em over to the site.

    The song is “Two Princes” by Spin Doctors. It was pretty popular in the early 90s I think.
