Notes

This is my first vid since last August. It's been the most difficult year of my life, and I couldn't find it within myself to vid in that time. Whenever I tried, I'd get paralyzed by doubts and depression, and just couldn't make anything work. Nothing ever felt right.

This project helped me to let go of all of that, at least for a while.

I grew up with the original Tron and really enjoyed the sequel last year and what it said about getting too immersed in technology, but for the Club Vivid vid I wanted to focus mostly on the visuals and the emotion/momentum of the source and song. Tech-wise, I used quite a lot of chroma key - overlaying detail shots from other scenes to basically use them as textures or coloring devices - and did lots of transparency tweaking.

The online version differs a bit from the version that was shown at Vividcon.

Thanks to millylicious for her unfailing support and belief in me (and for the vid banner); to kuwdora for reminding me how to squee (and for her help with the source); and to geezola for her strength, as always. And thank you for watching my vids! I hope there's more to come.

Lyrics:

Red One
Konvict
GaGa

I've had a little bit too much
All of the people start to rush
Start to rush babe.
A dizzy twister dance
Can't find my drink or man.
Where are my keys, I lost my phone.
What's going on on the floor?
I love this record baby, but I can't see straight anymore.
Keep it cool what's the name of this club?
I can't remember but it's alright, alright.

[Chorus:]
Just dance. Gonna be okay.
Da-doo-doo-doo
Just dance. Spin that record babe.
Da-doo-doo-doo
Just dance. Gonna be okay.
Duh-duh-duh-duh
Dance. Dance. Dance. Just dance.

Wish I could shut my playboy mouth.
How'd I turn my shirt inside out? Inside out babe.
Control your poison babe
Roses with thorns they say.
And we're all gettin' hosed tonight.
What's going on on the floor?
I love this record baby, but I can't see straight anymore.
Keep it cool what's the name of this club?
I can't remember but it's alright, alright.

[Chorus]

[Colby O'Donis]
When I come through on the dance floor checking out that catalogue.
Can't believe my eyes so many women without a flaw.

And I ain't gonna' give it up, steady tryna pick it up like a call
I'm gonna hit it, I'm gonna hit it and flex and do it until tomorrow, yeah
Shorty i can see that you got so much energy
The way you twirling up them hips round and round
There's no reason at all why you can't leave here with me
In the meantime stay, let me watch you break it down.

[Chorus]

Half psychotic, sick hypnotic got my blueprint it's symphonic.
Half psychotic, sick hypnotic got my blueprint electronic.
Half psychotic, sick hypnotic got my blueprint it's symphonic.
Half psychotic, sick hypnotic got my blueprint electronic.

Go. Use your muscle, carve it out, work it, hustle
I got it, just stay close enough to get it
Don't slow! Drive it, clean it lysol, bleed it
Spend the last dough
(I got it)
In your Pocko
(I got it)

Hope you enjoy the vid!
