A question about the CAROLS pv
 
I was watching the making today and they show some footage of her swinging in a tree. Why didnt they put that in the video. It was really pretty and I think it wouldve gone well with the vid. I just was wondering if anyone knew why they didnt add it or if it was never meant to be put in the vid.

*sorry if this was posted before >.<*

^ i was curious, too...
Maybe they felt it really had no place in the PV? :shrug

Princess_Of_Roses 14th December 2005 03:03 AM

maybe..but if thats the case why put that part in the making o.O

wierdness lol..maybe there was supposed to be some other version of the vid

This was discussed a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago XD

Actually, from what people said, I guess Ayu's hair kept messing up and just not looking good in general ((pfft!)) so they decided not to keep it in the video.

Would have been nice, though, since it would have matched the cover concept.

norain 14th December 2005 05:24 AM

plus it really didn't fit anywhere...lol

I've said to myself many times that "they'll make an acoustic version...with her just swinging" but yeah, I believe too much

AyuGAME 14th December 2005 07:25 AM

its a long long time ago discussion topic
but i'm still curious about it
it looks nice..but if u look more, u will see the shadow of camera and her hair is messed up..so..i think thats why..its didn't include in her carols PV (my favourit ballad all the time from ayu)

Sorta Deartest (Accoustic) version-ish? That would have been cool. Though mixing that with a Foo Fighters "The Best" music video concept would have been better XD just not as flashy @_@

alternarist 14th December 2005 05:57 PM

but if u guys said it was her hair was messy, why didnt the hairstylist ensure that her hair wasnt messy then.. hmm

Piccolo 14th December 2005 08:14 PM

If you look at the making of video of that, the day was very windy. I don't care how much hair gunk you put in, your hair is not going to look okay in that kind of wind. It was actually kind of sad cause you could just look at Ayumi and go "Man she must be freezing her butt off and they want her to swing?"

ohsixthirty 14th December 2005 08:25 PM

but her hair was blowing in the wind...i liked it. but i also heard it was because it was so windy and what not. oh well...i think i like it better without that scene.

Raleigh 14th December 2005 08:44 PM

Yeah it was because there was a typhoon, I believe.

I got motion sick watching it, too. That could've been one of the factors in excluding the scene from the PV. Aside from that, it's possible that they had to cut it for time considerations as well. With Ayumi already having the stage scene and the carousel scene, the swing scene may have been one too many scene changes for the director's taste in the final edit.

Ayumi no Yume 15th December 2005 02:31 AM

rofl yeah..It was pretty windy that day..
But i still liked it..
they really should've made 2 versions..
like dearest...one of my favorite songs <3
(Carols was very high at the top when i first heard it. It was my favroite song for months)

perfectodub 15th December 2005 03:25 AM

like a filmaker i can tell you the CAROLS video work better like a dark and a nocturnal video...that luminous scene reduces the intimist concept to the video.



bye!

Yukitora 15th December 2005 05:29 AM

I thought it was merely due to the typhoon messing up everything... like, made everything messy... also I asw the camera's shadow :P I would've loved a scene with the single's cover on it though, that swing thing was pretty!

yeah, true. I guess a slow ballad like carols, doesnt work well with some action paced PV *exaggerating*. And actually I love it the way it is... :yes

Ryoko 16th December 2005 10:28 PM

That was my favorite part of the entire video, and it wasn't there! *sulks* It went with the concept I think.

Also completely off-topic if you notice in the CM, she's on the carousel during the chorus, but in the actual video, it's Ayu singing by herself accompanied by a piano. I thought that was weird too.

And the Panasonic ver of the STEP you song made it sound cool and rockish, but when the actual song came out it was quite fast-paced.

Delirium-Zer0 17th December 2005 04:56 AM

There was alot more about that shot that wasn't working. The camera's shadow kept showing up on the ground, and you didn't get enough of a view of ayu. Seriously, you rarely saw her well at all. That combined with the bad weather (and having to pack everything up & head indoors earlier than planned) meant they didn't get nearly enough decent footage of ayu, since the few times you DID see her she looked freezing and her hair kept getting in her face.

"swing" part in CAROLS PV
 
i bought MY STORY CD+DVD and i never knew there was an making clip of CAROLS in it.. and then i saw ayu swinging in this swing like the cover but she's wearing a black dress and jeans and howcome it's not included in the PV but theyshot it ayu singing carols.

Norrel 23rd August 2006 11:30 PM

Hm.. I don`t know. In making of M they showed Ayu scenes while she sings in church and it wasn`t in PV. If I understood you right..
And while I was here I think it wasn`t posted. I too didn`t know there is making of CAROLS >.< erm..can someone upload? :D

truehappiness 24th August 2006 12:01 AM

People did notice like crazy XD But that was like 2 years ago o_o

I think it was wind conditions or something that didn't let them get good enough shots or something.. cause it was super windy at the time T__T

chibi_sunny 24th August 2006 12:18 AM

This topic has been dicussed many, many times before, so please look something up before you post a thread.
It had been decided that the day when they shot the scene was too windy, and the scene never came out right.
At least they added a swing scene on the covers of the CD and DVDs.
