It's the clarion call of FESTIVIDS YAAAAAAY.

The nominations are coming! The nominations are coming! I have no idea what to nominate this year. This is my current working list ( Read more... )

Hola! I come with two vid-related items.

1. My interview at vid-commentary is up here! I actually thought I had answered the questions better than I actually did upon re-reading, but at least they're honest, if not necessarily all that insightful. As such, if you have anything you'd like to hear more about, please feel free to ask there (or here). I'll take ( Read more... )

Hello! I'm home - you probably didn't know I was away, but AHH and I went camping in the Olympics this weekend. Had a really marvelous time and took lots of pictures which I shall force on y'all later. Am currently waiting for AHH to finish up what he's doing so we can go have ice cream and watch another episode of Six Feet Under. While waiting ( Read more... )

How is it Thursday? It feels like Friday. Surely it must be Friday. I've done enough work for it to be Friday. Heh.

Via side-of-zen, BSG's fourth season has been upped from 13 to 22 episodes. I hope that they are able to get their act together for another long season, but after the mid-season slumps (or collapse, even) in both Season 2 and 3, I'm not ( Read more... )

For my last commentary, f1renze asked for:

Woman King, please.

Heh.

( Thoughts on Woman King, on deciphering lyrics, on ending shots, and vidding with intent; I get a little pretentious and a lot wordy )

I haven't forgotten these. One more left after this!

lizamanynames asked:

I've already asked the specific question I wanted to about Moving Right Along (Why pick the clip you did for "saskatchewan"?) but I'd really, REALLY love to see a full-fledged commentary on it

Like I'm going to say no to that!

( Thoughts about Moving Right Along, John & D'Argo, multiple emotions in a vid, opening shots, ending shots, and emotional attachment )

mcfeste asked:

I'm going to second the request for a post on COB. ...

Barring that, or hell, in addition to that, I'd love some thoughts on WYWF. I know it's old -- and actually I hold out hope for a remaster, in all of your copious spare time -- but it's one of the dearest to my heart in terms of storytelling and cutting.Because I talked extensively ( Read more... )

I promised myself I wouldn't post again until I finished this. And, wow, is this long.

I'm going to give you a toss up, because I can't make a decision. I'd love to hear about your process of building "Cold Cold Water" or "Coin-Operated Boy". Especially what you saw when you first had the ideas spark, how much of that made it to the ( Read more... )

anoel asked:

To make it official, I'd like to have a commentary on Exile. First I have to say that I think that the music is absolutely beautiful and fits Inara perfectly and I think the vid really reflects that (love the fades). Some things I'd love for you to talk about would be how you set up the narrative and how what you wanted to show affected ( Read more... )
