I often draw things from my imagination. There is no such structure such as the one in this drawing. Although I was watching a movie in which some men with hang gliders attacked a temple in the Himalayas. The fortress is simply from my imagination, but based on medieval fortresses.
Once I had drawn it, I visualised a stormy night. Enter video. I scanned the drawing into Photoshop and cropped it and increased the contrast. Then I imported it into Ulead Videostudio 9. First I duplicated the frame and with the color control I darkened it. By using the cross-fade transition and adjusting the length of each frame on the screen I created the effect of oncoming and subsequent darkness.
I used three different "lightning" video filters randomly. I also added two "rain" filters. I searched the Internet for the thunder and rain sound effects and used three "thunders" and two "rains". I mixed these effects on Audacity before adding them to the sound track in Ulead.
Lastly I added the music which was some royalty-free stuff I had laying around.
I think it came out OK. What about you?
