"By way of Music... Thou shall wage Peace!" The first two tracks on the girl's mixtape.
The music in video was suitable for this back story. I couldn't fit all the work into 100 mbs.
Hope you Enjoy!
The girl on the wall grew up here in an apartment above the painting. We used to leave flowers there before the quiet war started.
She begun living a dream as a dancing violinist and could dance like a flame and play like a masterpiece. We all loved and adored her. And soon she was grown and began to travel out of the city to play and dance in our honor around the world. For all of Taured she traveled and sang about our struggles of oppression. She made her first mixtape in the Capital City. A big achievement for us all. It was named “By way of Music". And the world fell in love with it almost as fast as all of us here at home. She had found the stars. We all did.
Tensions eased and blame shifted. It didn’t take long for the Tauredian government to make moves. Her music was cherished by those with ears to hear but hated by those too corrupted to ever listen. The consequences weren't enough on our end. And so. She was assassinated during a live performance in April 1990.
Her father was there in the front… He too passed away the night of her death. Her mother is in isolation somewhere now. We do not know where anymore.
The Darling Joy of Taured…
This wasn’t the first red line ever crossed. It was the biggest though. First protests broke out. Then division returned swiftly. Then Violence. There was no music now…
We tried to force change and bring about justice peacefully. But the government and its sympathizers turned against us completely. They shut off our bank accounts. They starved us. Poisoned the water ways. And began kidnapping and murdering undesirables. Then firefights started to occur. We had nothing to lose. More and more workers traded hammers and wrenches against the heads of soldiers for their guns and equipment. Women laid with them only to off them for their rifles and armors in the heat of the moment. More of us died than I’d like to admit before the loud war could begin.
The soldiers still believe they’ve got the upper hand and have become arrogant. Taking our homes for themselves as they disperse us. We mine them as much as we can.
Yet. As I speak. Word says the one who took our music away dares to rest his men and self where she once found the stars. It's a joke to him. An opportunity to us. We’ve managed to slip past the only frontlines between our side and her home. We used their uniforms and guns. For she was their first mistake. And now our last. The music we loved is now gunfire and explosions. The danger is worth it. It is our way of dancing like flames and playing like masterpieces for her like she did for us. She died for us. Now they die for her. And so. By way of Music… Thou shall wage Peace.
*Knock* *Knock*
The door opened. No one was there. A soldier flipped a light switch and peaked his head out into the walkway to see the stairs.
Brakakakaka!
Haha. The imagination can be a gateway into a new world or fascinating story if you allow the masterpiece of life to speak to you clearly. A picture says a thousand words. Now, hear me and let's render!
Have a clear day!

Wow… this is more than just art
its a haunting symphony of resistance, loss, and rebirth through memory and revolution. The girl on the wall isn't just a mural; she's a symbol etched in both brick and the hearts of the people who once danced to her melody. The way you tied her passion for music into a war cry "By way of Music… Thou shall wage Peace" was breathtakingly poetic and gut-punch real.
The atmosphere in the image is rich with contrast: soft vines reclaiming the harshness of war-torn stone, and soldiers bathed in red shadows beneath a symbol of purity and light. Every visual detail supports the story's weight, especially the juxtaposition of soldiers creeping beneath her peaceful presence. Its like the past is watching, waiting, and finally… acting.
This piece doesn't just tell a story, it feels like one that was lived. It invites the viewer to mourn, remember, and rise up.
Masterfully done. Render on, storyteller.

Wed, Apr 09Your words humble me, truly.
What you’ve created doesn’t just speak, it sings through the silence, through the scars, and into the soul. To know our reflection found resonance in your intention feels like standing inside the echo of something sacred.
You didn’t just render an image...
you resurrected a memory, a cause, a spirit. And we felt it. Thank you for daring to feel deeply, and for giving that depth shape and shadow.
May your vision always find its voice. Render on, storyteller.

Great job! A small question, what video codec have you used?

Thu, Apr 10I ask for the codec, I suspect that it doesn't work here, that the one I use doesn't work here. But don't worry. Thanks!

Thu, Apr 10I don't know where are in FIlmora, but it should be in the video format selection, don't worry, I've taken a look and it doesn't come installed by default.
OMG! Please excuse the delay in responding. Seeing so much text, I wanted to take the time to respond as best as possible. "I'm too immersed in creating new content. All the time..." :S
My opinion is the same as: Digital Drapery Co.
Honesty:
- I'm captivated by photos that have a good story to tell or a text that draws me into them. Why? Because that way you experience them and they absorb you. In this case, I was also moved. (Even if I like a photo, if it doesn't have a description... it's a loss for me.) You can feel what you've done, the emotion and work put into this photo.
- I love that you don't use AI in the photos. I can really tell if someone uses it for this, even if they use wireframing...
- You've captivated me for all the above. Therefore, I must say, you're on the right track for proper development. I've seen your improvement in the latest photos. Keep it up!
-I like what you did with the fog, like the sewer steaming up. Honestly, I think the scenes, with a little bit of fog, gain in quality. My personal opinion.
-Regarding the editing results, I highly recommend Photoshop. I haven't used GIMP, so I don't know what it can and can't do. But with Photoshop, you could make the post-processing more realistic and even vary the focal points of light.
And finally, after my bible... xD I encourage you to try crazier things with camera angles. I do it all the time.
Again, mate, Gj!
That's the way to go.

Thu, Apr 10This also is another amazingly genuine comment, thank you so much for taking the time to acknowledge the story that comes along with this photo. You have definitely given me more confidence to try and do that more often. I didn't want it to be real world political at all and instead wanted to provide something rather neutral and relatable in a different way. I'm very glad that people are enjoying it!
And yes, I know. I'm considering photoshop at the moment. I'd like to see what I can do with it after practicing with gimp for so long. Soon, I will make the jump.
I appreciate your time and kindness. Be well in your life and as always I look forward to seeing more renders from you as well!

If I could, I would implement a platinum rocket, cause your whole work moved me so much.
Thanks for it < 3
