So I don't have the stamina for long and more complex projects, but something that's roughly one minute long? I might get around to do it every now and then.
The video is short, which means I could tinker with each section for a longer time. That also means I tinkered with it for too long and lost the touch. In the early process of vid-making, adding or removing 1-2 seconds from a clip makes a visible difference in the flow of the fanvid, at least in a vid so short.
After experimenting with it for long enough, though, it becomes all the same; the whole video is like a continuous black line on a white surface. Fixing it turns out to be just an illusion you nurtured hours or days ago, when you still knew which sections were supposed to have an impact.
I think the saying 'quit while you're ahead' fits here. Or maybe there's something wrong with my vidding-fu...
I'd like to give the concept another go somewhere in future, and by concept I mean the magical "mental sex" and the "magic-love-nature" type of all-encompassing eroticism.
Accidentally the making of this vid rescuscitated all the happily forgotten Merthur angst. Screw you, show, screw you. You never were what I hoped you'd be. I won't give you my heart again. You're a plaything I return to once every few months, nothing more, you hear?
Screw you. *cries*
Anyway, feedback welcome.
