Development history: On the 3rd of June I finally got to visit a bigger city library that had old choral books. I borrowed one and plucked some old jewels and decided to make this song for Vocaloid first. I started working on the song at around 3 pm and it took me about six hours to finish the music. I used Audacity to compress the sound and add some reverb. Then I started making the lipsync video. I used GIMP to modify Miku (drawn by SaNari) to look like Mikuo. Finding pictures that somewhat fit the song was harder than I expected (because of copyright issues, for example). I also ran into trouble when I tried to generate avi files with lipsync. They always ended up corrupted and many hours had gone to waste. At 2 am I gave up and went to sleep. The next day I went to work and while working I came up with the idea to split the avi generation into smaller pieces and it worked. So, after work I used Windows Movie Maker to connect the smaller avi segments and the sound file into one movie file. It seems my HD test worked out, too. You can view this video in high definition. Yay!
