Future fan projects (and a small rant)

Apr 16, 2011 23:54

I've been meaning to post this since… last year?
If someone had told me in December that it would take several months until I started writing again, my response would have been, “LOLOLOLOL. Yeah, right. I know I’m slow to finish anything, but not THAT slow.”

Here’s a list of what I’m planning to do in future. I’ll probably work through it slowly, because there are also other things I have to (and would like to) do, but I thought it wouldn’t hurt letting others know what I’m up to.

FANFICTION:
Sungkyunkwan Scandal
-Lips’ Red (working title), 3 000-5 000 words, PG-14: set during ep. 16, after Assumptions but before Hunter’s Knife
Short summary: Jae Shin is intent on meeting Cho Sun, and Yong Ha is intent on learning why.

-The Hour of the Monkey, 3 000-5 000 words, PG-14: set after The Hour of the Tiger:
Short summary: In the morning Jae Shin is already gone, and Yong Ha sets out to find him.

-Late Evening Lesson (working title), 5 000-10 000 words, PG-14: set directly after ‘The Hour of the Monkey,’ includes a small reference to ‘Lips’ Red.’
Short summary: It’s an attempt to write something that resembles the episodes from the series, only with Yong Ha and Jae Shin as the central characters.
The Jaelgum quartet is solving another problem, what else? The world is full of problems.

-Paradigm Shift (working title), 10 000-15 000 words, R (NC-17) (includes a motif from ‘ Can’t Give It Up’):
Short summary: Explicit sexual content. Follows ‘Late Evening Lesson.’ It should be, unless I chicken out (which I’m tempted to do), somewhat kinky. Also, angst again.

There are many small details that accumulated in my brain while I wasn’t able to write my Gullim fics, and I probably won’t be able to include them all.
(I’m still tempted to make Yong Ha play with the words ‘Geol Oh’(Crazy Horse) and ‘geo-ul’ (mirror), and include a sijo in one of the fics. *sigh* I don’t even know. )

Dragon Age II
-Lyrium and a Lover, ~19 000 words (I hate you, Fenris! That’s no way to ambush me!), R
-Endings and Beginnings (still only a working title), ~3 000 words, PG-14: It’s a Varania-centric fic, set during Act III (After the quest ‘Alone’). Follows ‘Lyrium and a Lover.’

Other:
I’m doing my best to resist the temptation to write for Camelot (All right, I kind of did write something, but I’m not going to post it.), The Borgias…

FANVIDEO:
Merlin
I have two collaborations in mind (one with netlynn  and one with analyst_1 ), but first I’d like to try a short vid (no lyrics, no plot, emphasis on the atmosphere) to familiarize myself with the episodes/clips again. There are also a few other songs that I’d like to use for Merthur vids, but I have no idea whatsoever when I’ll do that.

My biggest problem (besides the general lack of energy) is that I find it painful to follow the series. I’m not too fond of the development of the story and character progression, and there are already many other talented vidders in the fandom, so I sometimes don’t know why I should continue making Merthur vids at all. Not to mention that I’m tired of YT’s blocking the vids.
Still, most people on my friendlist come from Merlin fandom, and in a way I wouldn’t like to let go. Give me a reason to continue, help me find my love again. /o\

Other vids:
-Equilibrium (I blame Fenris from DA2, yes I do.) I’ve seen the movie for the first time years ago, and I’m kind of obsessed with it now.
There’s a bunch of other series (The Pillars of the Earth, The Borgias, Skins…) and movies (The Eagle, The Secret of Kells, Prince of Persia…) that are trying to lure me in, but we’ll see.

OTHER:
I may make a Fenris mood theme (a normal one, an animated theme would be too much work for my taste), but I haven’t decided yet.

---

I miss the times when my vids were poorly made and sucky, but I had fun with them. I mean, my vids are still sucky for the most part, but I spend too much energy on them, and it’s not even nearly as fun.
It’s probably because my latest fan projects all took too much energy (something I really don’t have) and turned out… either not that interesting or not sharable for other reasons.

Rant over.

tag? what tag?, random, fandom, skks, omg a fic, dragon age 2, omg a pr0n fic, rl, mood theme, sometimes i hate youtube, massive crankiness, fanvid, patience is not my virtue, this shoe doesn't fit, merlin/arthur
