My favourite video this year (of my own):
The Call (Lost Ensemble)
My least favourite:
Falling Star
Most successful video (judging by comments, ratings and views):
The Call was pretty successful/popular. I won some places in contests with Missing Pieces, Struggle and Sickness so those were quite successful! and WOW, I just checked out my Milo Ventimiglia - Good Girls Go Bad vid and it has 1,871 views! *_* Guess that was pretty successful also! :D
Video most underappreciated by the universe (again judging by comments, ratings and views):
I remember being disappointed at the reaction for Learn My Lesson but I think more people started to notice it a bit later on xD You, Me, And The Baby also went over 30 days without a Viewer Pick, which made me feel quite disappointed. But that might have been because it was a busy time of year. Oh No!" also isn't doing very well in the way of comments and votes. It still has no Viewer Pick on LVI yet :( A lot of my vids have been taking a long while to get VP's lately, which sucks, but oh well.
Most fun video to make:
Milo Ventimiglia - Good Girls Go Bad, Unnecessary Censorship - Heroes and Oh No! (Ana-Lucia)
Hardest video to make:
Fade Out - Kate/Sam AU. Not just because it was a complicated AU, but because I fail when it comes to thinking of SPN scenes and because I had to use my DVD ripped .mpg files, and .mpg messes up my Sony Vegas a lot >_> Missing Pieces was also a huge struggle. I had to rip Dom clips from YouTube and get clips from anywhere I could. Then I had to put together a whole story with little to go on in terms of resources like clips and audio, etc. The editing's not great but I'm proud of the story and the finished product as a whole! :) I also remember Learn My Lesson being quite a bitch too! xD
The things I've learnt this year...
This year I learnt more about using textures, moving textures (as used in You Picked Me and The Good Life. They're a lot of fun! I also learnt how to make my vids look better by getting it to fit the screen at YouTube. The frame thing always annoyed me.
Things to work on in 2010:
Probably audio. I get a lot of crit on my vids to do with audio. It's not always easy to fix, but I guess I'm just going to try, and improve generally in my vidding.
Vid projects I definitely want to get finished this year (2011):
I just realised I failed in getting most of the vids I wanted finished by 2010 done :'p I suppose this is more or less the last year I can get my projects done :S:S
Plus the usual bit from the wish list.
Here's my whole To Do List I wanna get done!! Most are still from last year or earlier :'p
+Swans - Jess/Rory
+Angels On The Moon - Nathan Petrelli
+Shoot Your Gun - Ana Lucia/Bela Talbot character study (After two years, I still want to do this.)
+My Best Friend - Ando + Hiro
+Apologise - Logan/Veronica (not the One Republic version, a more upbeat cover)
+Strong - Paire 2.0 (Not continued this in a long time.)
+Sway - the insane Peter/Niki/Tracy/Nathan love rectangle vid, that has been sitting on my laptop for a year...
+OneX - the awesome/insane Lost/Heroes/Supernatural crossover that I haven't dared work on yet :S:S :(
+Hanging Around - Peter/Kate crossover vid
+Gotta Be Somebody - Peter AUish
+Goodnight & Go - Peter/Emma
