Vid: Road rage

Apr 08, 2007 14:25

I'm totally spamming today, since long weekends = fannish productivity! *g*

This vid was my attempt to overcome my phobia of vidding my favourite characters or ships. You'll notice that I still shied away from vidding Lee's perspective... but I'm getting there. I also tried to vid fast, since I'm not keen to repeat the weeks of wallowing in ( Read more... )

vids, bsg

That was great! It was fun to just remember the fairly uncomplicated relationship they had back then compared to the mess they're in now.

I d/loaded the larger version 'cause I'm a sucker for the extra shiny pretty.

The vid had very clean cuts and the pacing was great. Wonderful job!

Oh, thank you! I'm delighted you enjoyed it. (I'm a sucker for the big shiny pretty too--hence the many gratuitous shots of pilot prettiness!) And yes, it was startling to revisit how happy they were back then.

Since I'm on dialup and all, I haven't actually got it downloaded and watched yet. But it's at 8% and I'm downloading the small one (for now) so I have some hope that it'll be done before I go to bed. Maybe.

I'll be back later to squee about how awesome it is, but I just wanted to say how much I love these vids you do! And since I'm all BSG-withdrawl-y, this one has great timing!

bop_radar April 8 2007, 06:56:45 UTC

Oh, thank you, Jen! I will cross my fingers for a quick download for you. Hope you enjoy it!

It finished downloading very quickly, despite the dialup, and I really liked it! Great job with the tonal shifts between the seriousness of the verses and the humor on the refrains. Also, very pretty! They were so cute and comparatively innocent in season 1, weren't they?

Ohh, yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and particularly that you felt the tonal shifts worked. I felt that the contrast between serious and light-hearted fitted them well anyway, since that was so characteristic of them in Season 1. And yeah, it was quite the eye-opener returning to Season 1 joy. (I felt like I was becoming one of those Clex fans who's all 'oh, but Season 1's the only good season'! Because they're so incredibly charming and untortured.)

I LOVE THIS!!!! The vid is gorgeous and happyful and it's a *perfect* song for them. It's left me with a massive smile on my face. THEY ARE SO OTP. Great work, Bopster!

Eee! *bounces* I'm so glad you like, Kate! And that it gave you the glowy OTP-y feeling. The song's always seemed like a classic choice for them (and hey, it's probably been vidded before, but who cares?). I luff them!

Oh, I'm so sorry! I've reuploaded to sendspace and I'll try uploading it to imeem too. Fingers crossed--I've never tried that before.
