Description
VERSION WITH SOUND: can be found on this pageFor those linking this - please note the new domain name - matthewcornish.info, not matthewcornish.org
UPDATE & THANKS: To view this flash as intended with sound head over to this page on my website. This also resolves the odd problem with deviantART cropping the animation. My special thanks go to the policy violation team for allowing the deviation to remain on deviantART for a short while with the unlicensed sound. Inevitably it's time to remove the sound from the deviantART hosted movie; hence the mirror on my site. Thanks to $realitysquared for the kindly written note regards this.
My heartfelt thanks go to *asymons , ©suzi9mm and `mirrorkills for their part in granting me a daily deviation feature to aide in spreading the message ((was wondering why I blinked and my message centre suddenly exploded)). My warmest regards to :devfirelite-photo: who bought me an additional year's subscription. Also, to the thousands of staff/members who kindly took the time to view the movie; plus the many hundreds of you who commented and/or added the deviation to your favourites. I have responded too and thanked everyone; quite a monumental task I must add! Thanks to those who then went on to view my main page and gallery - it has been very much appreciated. Lastly, thank you to the many who mentioned me and/or this deviation in their journals.

August 7th: A special day for everyone as deviantART celebrates five years of operation as the largest arts community online. Today is about thanks and praise for what we have as a community and a day for putting aside the issues that threaten to ruin everything. I've thought long and hard about what I was going to do on this day. Am I to follow the yellow army and focus all my attention on one man; or turn around and say thank you to the whole community? I know which of the two is going to be most productive at the end of the day, so let's put the politics aside please.
The various staff members past and present who deserve your thanks today:
`alchemism °arc °attila ^blackice @bluespeed9 `brazensix `bzed $chris :devdamphr: +dinyctis `dj-designs °dygel +ekud °euphoria :devfirelite-photo: `frail `fusionrock ^halfliquid ^hesitation $hexentanz @igy °jark °jsenn $liquisoft $lolly ^mangapunksai °matteo $mccann $MikeyLove $Moonbeam13 °ndifference `olya ^serpentinekiss ^silentkitty :devsivein: `skyOrange $spyed ^superkev ©suzi9mm °tack `twosilverstars ^yathosho
They've made a difference to this community one way or the other ((apologies to those I'm sure I missed out)). Now's your chance to support the community by doing something for someone else today. I know it's easy to get caught up in this ongoing saga over °jark 's dismissal but just for one day please think about the community at large.
Enjoy the movie.

A truly great piece of work, as rocking as the dAv4 intro.

Thank you for watching
Because I've recently had to remove the sound, may I ask, was it clear enough to you that to see it with sound you had to click the link in the description?

Wow i jsut listened to Fix You, and you did an EXTREMELY good job mixing this. How did you do it? And what program did you use? I mean I'm into music (not like guitar and stuff, like trumpet, clarinet, piano etc) so i have programs to write music and turn into midi files. Did you just take clips from different songs and mix them?

matthewedwardcornish In reply to MilchstrabeSTern [2005-08-10 10:40:52 +0000 UTC]
Thank you Yeah I was classically trained on Piano and Violin
I cut out three sections of Fix You using WaveLab and keyframed them into the flash movie - nothing fancy per se, but effective nonetheless

ah sneaky, I looked up the chords for the song, very simple. I'll have to try this technique, I really like the result you came up with, i think 85% of that flash is the music itself based on effectiveness. I like seeing things like this, you should try some more, i've been using flash for years, but never got too good with it.

I merely tinker with flash as a hobby and make the odd website/intro using it - like a site I'm building for a friend of mine at [link]

i have a question, i downloaded a demo of WaveLab, can you seperate things like vocals and guitar? or is that just entirely impossible?

matthewedwardcornish In reply to MilchstrabeSTern [2005-08-10 11:51:07 +0000 UTC]
It's not impossible but as far as I know you can't do it in WaveLab.

Nice, real nice, the music choice was verrry wise may i add. It the sort of sound that adds meaning to the flash presentation. Well worded. Simplicity does prevail. Like stated before, awesome job.
