Memorial Photo Album :.
120 Still Promotional Photographs
split into 6 menus
Another
fantastic extra feature and an example of how a photo
gallery should be done! 120 promotional photos are here
some I had and hadn't seen before. Definitely a worthwhile
addition. All of the photos are selectable from 6 static
menus with music.

How to Make Composite Shots :.
Running Time: 4min 16sec
Various formats/ Non-Anamorphic
What
could have been a very uninteresting and pointless featurette
turns out to be one of my most watched extras on the disc.
I love it! The entire 4 minutes shows us how the composite
and CG shots are made. Included are: the 2 shots of Nobus
collar exploding; Kiriyama shooting Kusaka in the stomach;
fixing a blinking Fujiyoushi; fixing the torch hitting
Akamatsu in the face; deleting a building from behind
the clinic; the shot of the lighthouse at sunset; Kiriyamas
collar exploding; fixing the positioning of Kitanos knife
in Fujiyoushis head for the Special Version; CG blood
added to Satomi being shot in Special Version; CG blood
added as Yutaka is shot in Special Version; CG blood added
as Iijima is shot in Special Version; and CG blood added
as Kawada is shot by Kiriyama for Special Version. That's
a lot of scenes. The whole thing is done without sound
effects but Radetsky March and Blue Danube Waltz play
as the shots are shown.

Recording at Warsaw Orchestra ver.2 :.
Running
Time: 9min 46sec
4:3 Fullscreen
Following
on from the previous release, we now have part 2 of the
making of the soundtrack. Exactly like part 1, it has
no narration or commentary, just a camera pointed at the
studio as Masamichi Amano does his thing. If this doesn't
convince you to buy the album, I don't know what will!
