Aegis of Release - Episode 3 Part 1
Kis is determined to find the truth about her sister, Celaeno. After an unexpected encounter in Rolanberry Fields she meets with Mega to figure out what their next move should be.
All fingers seem to point at finding Oren . . .
Notes about this episode~
Well for a start this episode was 3 days late, mainly because Episode 3 is going to be the biggest episode yet.
I've adjusted the character's faces so they take up a little less room now.
I've abandoned the cross disolve from camera change to camera change/text change to text change.
It has a much more fluid feel to it now!
Mega's name does not show up as 'Megaman' anymore.
When is the next part due out?
Part 2 has already been filmed and 50% of that has been edited accordingly.
Because of this I can safely say part 2 will be up on the 19th, or 48 hours from now. That gives me one day to finish off the scenes and another day to render it all together.
I hope you enjoy and if you like it please comment or whatnot!
Thank you!~

What can we expect from AoR Episode 3?
In the last episode Kisats came one step closer to finding the truth about her sister, Celaeno. But more questions were raised. How can she be fated to bring about the rise of the Zilart?
In Episode 3 Kisats will venture, along with Mega, to find a sage known as 'Lily' but not all is as it seems. . .
Thanks for watching!

Notes about this video
What is this video?
Aegis of Release is an FFXIesque story set in Vana'diel filmed and edited by myself.
Why create this video
I've wanted to create a video like this for a long time now and I have the means to carry that out now, also I have plans for several other videos, and this is also not the first FFXI video I've made.
What happens in this episode?
In the last episode we saw Kisats, a Ninja, wondering about the whereabouts of her sister, Celaeno. Kisats was then sent by two Jeuno guards to investigate some strange occurance in Xarcabard.
When Kisats and Mega arrived however a Black Mage was there to great them. This mage, Oren, told them they were being set up by Jeuno and warped them away from danger.
In this Episode Kisats and Oren talk more and Oren reveals he is able to help Kisats find her sister. They set out to meet someone who might know where Celaeno is but what is Oren's true motives? Who will they meet? Does he really know anything about Celaeno? And why is everyone so concerned about the amulet Kisats wears?
Watch and find out~
Will there be more?
Yes- there will be more, although it does take a lot of time and effort to create even a short 15 minute clip. This episode took over a month to create!
Although it gets easier with every video I make. There are 5 planned episodes, each one introducing new characters and advancing the plot more and more.
Any changes from the first episode?
Several changes, for the better! First of all a brand new name. I decided 'My Story' was too generic so I gave it something with more character.
Secondly: speech. Speech has been a problem for all FFXI videos in the past. Even notorious ones such as Samurai 7 and Lament of Torment. It can be hard to see the text and also who is speaking. With this episode comes better visuals, the characters now take up more room in the speech box, the name has been changed from dark blue to white, and the text stays on screen for longer (3 Seconds > 5 Seconds) so no one should have difficulty keeping up.
The resolution has improved (NTSC 0.9).
A HQ version will be uploaded onto my FileFront account so you can watch it in more detail, rather than just watch the crappy YouTube conversions.
The credits have changed to add a little more life to them.
A new intro has been made and will be the standard for future AoR releases.
Better editing. Although some minor editing mistakes have made their way into the final release it's a lot less than there was in episode 1. And hopefully in episode 3 there will be none!
That's all from me, I hope you enjoy it, and if you don't please post and tell me why. I'm always looking for ways to improve and you can help :)
