UPDATE: I'm editing my post to add a note that I didn't have the energy for last night when I posted this, after my struggle to (more or less) meet the School Hard

This is absolutely lovely - NICE quick throw together - I'm so envious of you that you can create vids. It works so well with the slow motion effects. Good For You.

[double_dutchess]

Thank you! It wasn't actually as quickly as I would have liked, but still not bad for half a night's work. I agree about the slow motion, although there's probably a bit too much of it. But it was too much work to shorten it further!

[nmcil12]

Yes - but it was worth your efforts and I don't think the slow motion was too much - what you did works and the effects added a beautiful and dreamscape quality that added so much. Especially knowing their future and how brutal their relationship becomes as well as what is coming for both of them with their lovers - It Fits!

[double_dutchess]

Thank you. I still think it could have been a bit shorter and to the point, but I'm glad to hear you think it's fine as is. That dreamscape quality is exactly what I was going for!

Okay, are those leather pants I see when he comes a-slow clapping out of the shadows? Because there's a sheen I never noticed before, and I'm pretty sure he was in the "fresh and casual new evil of denim" rather than the "old school evil of leather pants" in all the other scenes of this ep. It makes a HUGE difference! Those sneaky wardrobe people with their subliminal cues.

Very nice vid! I like the slo-mo and the atmospheric music. Good match!

[double_dutchess]

Thanks! And now that you mention it, I see the sheen too. He might very well be wearing leather instead of jeans in this scene, as befits a creepy stalker lurking in the shadows. I think I'm going to need to watch my source materials a bit more closely to make sure!

Mmm. Very nice.

Thank you very much! I appreciate you coming over to comment.

Such a great series of charged glances! The slo-mo gives them the time to linger, works very well with the music.

[double_dutchess]

Thanks! Yes, the drawn-out looks make it extra easy to see all the nuances. Spike's lusty obsession is obvious, but Buffy's slow blinks there at the end are telling too.

This is fabulous (as usual). Love the whole vid!!! It really sets up the introduction to "School Hard" and the whole spuffy mood. The music is great and really works for the vid. Great job!!

[double_dutchess]

Thank you! It's a sexy/creepy kind of Spuffy that we see here and I thought the song fit well with that.
