Final Fantasy VII: A Cinematic Speedpainting Series by Lap Pun Cheung Nov 2014 - April 2015
Introduction
Final Fantasy VII. One of my favourite games and something of milestone for JPRG popularity in the west.
I had played this game many times many years ago, after my brother introduced it to me. It didn’t immediately impress me, with its super blocky characters and low poly object, but it did grow on me. Its engrossing story and amazing music certainly helped and now I consider it be one of the most influential games on my growth as an artist.
Skip ahead around fifteen years, I enjoy watching Let’s Plays and game videos on the internet whilst working. One day I remember that I haven’t played the PS1 era titles for such a long time and I decide to watch a Let’s Play of Final Fantasy VII. As I finished watching it, I realised that I suddenly felt super inspired to create fan art based on it. The key was the stunning soundtrack by Nobuo Uematsu. Even when I hear one of the songs now, out of context, the emotions and scenes from that game immediately come to mind.
With that I decided that I would do a piece of art for each soundtrack title. That was the original plan but soon enough, just doing the titles wasn’t going to cut it in making the series coherent. So I added filler images, to cover points in the story the soundtrack doesn’t show. After around five months of working on it in my free time and in between other personal projects I have finally finished. It hasn’t always been easy and some of the results aren’t what I intended, but now it is complete.
I present to you my cinematic speedpainting series of Final Fantasy VII. I hope you enjoy it.

An additional note; I never realised I missed one OST title - ‘Attack of the Weapon’

000 The Prelude ˚
The first image in the series, this is the shot from the main menu. For most scenes I could think of some alternative camera angles but for this one, it seemed appropriate the start with the iconic menu image.

001 Opening ˚
The song for this one is split with the next one - ‘Bombing Mission’

004 Escaping the Reactor
The first non-OST related image. At this stage I didn’t realise how much work would really be involved in this project if I kept adding fillers. I had a rough idea but to actually experience it was different.

005 First Encounter
I also wanted to involve some key shots of what I thought were important moments in the game, even if they didn’t have their own musical piece. Cloud’s first encounter with the flower girl is one such example to me.

008 7th Heaven (Tifa’s Theme) ˚
This scene is one I knew I wanted to paint when I heard Tifa’s theme again. It had to be at her bar. When the series was featured on Kotaku after I released about 20 images there was a running joke in the comments about her ‘grey moustache’. I found it hilarious that I didn’t notice this initially but one of the pieces of fanart at the end of this document is dedicated to them.

009 The Promise
The flashbacks in this series are desaturated with a vignette, I needed to differentiate them from the normal timeline. Also, I wanted to have callbacks and allusions between the images. Keep this image in mind when you reach ‘122 Under the Night Sky Once More’.

012 Lurking in the Darkness ˚
Many shots where we are viewing the scene from Cloud’s perspective are done in an over-the-shoulder camera angle or at least behind him. I wanted the viewer to feel more sympathetic to him.

Final Fantasy VII: A Cinematic Speedpainting Series by Lap Pun Cheung Nov 2014 - April 2015
017 Flowers Blooming in the Church ˚
Out of all the paintings in this series, I think this one is my favourite and judging from the reception, many others like it too. If his first encounter with Aeris was important I think this is the moment that really kicked off the main story of the game.

Final Fantasy VII: A Cinematic Speedpainting Series by Lap Pun Cheung Nov 2014 - April 2015
023 Playground Date
To me, at this stage of the game, Aeris was presented as the main female character and definitely appeared to be Cloud’s love interest so it was fun to depict this. Also, I had forgotten many of the smaller moments like this and it was a joy to relive them.

026 Honeybee Inn ˚
One thing about Final Fantasy VII is how it includes many darker elements but sometimes in a comedic manner, such as the Honeybee Inn. It made the game all the more interesting.

048 World Map (Main Theme of Final Fantasy VII) ˚
I deliberately changed up the colour scheme after leaving Midgar as I wanted to accentuate the shift before the polluted megacity and the rest of the world. From this point onwards the paintings don’t really have that grungy cyberpunk/dieselpunk feeling anymore.

This set of flashblacks is so important to the story I had to include them.

085 The Nightmare Begins ˚
The second secret character lies in that coffin. It’s still pretty hard to believe that a secret character could be so easy to miss if you chose not to explore the game.

086 The Captain (Cid’s Theme) ˚
One of the few characters that appear across multiple Final Fantasy titles albeit in different forms. Actually I think Cid is the only one that appears in every single one.

096 Debut ˚
In my eyes, the date scene, which I know is possible to have with many other characters, is really supposed to happen with Aeris.

100 Hope Lost (Aerith’s Theme) ˚
This is one of the scenes which I was concerned about painting. It’s so well known in gaming circles that she dies and a lot of people know how she dies too. I felt pressure in doing the scene justice.

104 Who...Am I? ˚
At this point, though strongly hinted at before, I think it is shown that Tifa is truly Cloud’s love interest. That’s probably not a popular opinion but it is mine.

107 The Highwind Takes to the Skies ˚
This depicting can never actually be real at this particular point, it should actually be just Cid or at least one of the other members of the team. Cloud and Tifa are actually both in Mideel in the hospital at this moment. I had forgotten this point when I decided to paint this.

110 From the Edge of Despair ˚
This music actually matches better with image 104 but I had already painted and uploaded that one, so it was too late.

111 Other Side of the Mountain ˚
This scene probably isn’t so recognised but it’s within Cloud’s mind where he remembers Tifa crying over her mother’s death. The music is called ‘Other Side of the Mountain’ because in the story it is said that her mother was over there.

Mirroring an earlier painting, this memory reveals the main character in the flashback was actually a guy called Zack, but who’s that blond guy over there in the back?

129 Staff Roll ˚
Not really a painting but it is one of the titles from the soundtrack so I decided to use this moment to highlight perhaps the main reason why I was willing to create this series, Nobuo Uematsu’s awesome soundtrack to this game. Whenever I hear almost any track I can remember what happened at that moment of the game. I think that’s a good sign.
