I added this to my bookmarks, you know. :P

Which is rather more convenient for both of us than me watching it every time I crack open your computer. XD

This weekend I’m going to try to get the other one into final-draft shape (it’s basically there; there are just a few tiny bits I want to tweak) and up. :)

YAAAAAAAAY. 8D

I still have the Quicktime movie on my desktop. :P

Thank you; I’m really glad you liked it! :)

And… hm. It’s hard to say, because I definitely know what it means (though sometimes I know words from you and my friends in the UK and just think I know them from around here XD), but I think when we use it as an adjective, it usually has somewhat negative connotations - like “I’m dead tired.” I’m pretty sure using it as an adjective to mean really or completely in general is mostly British and Australian; I don’t think I hear it that way much here, though I wouldn’t be surprised if most Americans at least recognized it.I had a lot of fun with this one; the more unusual the lyrics to a song, the more fun it can be to match clips with them. =D Actually, the hardest songs/parts to do are parts where the line is very general, or where a line is repeated many times. XD And I’m so glad you liked the telling-a-story thing, because that’s one of my favorite parts about making AMVs, and one of the most important things about them, to me. I’m really, really glad that you liked this

O.o Wow. This was so amazing! Everything matched up so well! You even got the feel of the song right. I just...can't stop gushing about it. : )

I’m really glad you liked it!! =D I’ll have to try to get the other one up this weekend; this one was the more dramatic one, and the other one is the more silly one. :) (Have I showed you the other one? It’s the one I made for Tierfal’s birthday last year.)

[richelle2972]

Oh yeah! You did show me that one. :DDD I loved that one!

Wow! It's beautiful! I didn't know you made videos too! ♥♥♥
The song was just perfect! How much time did you take to make it?

Thank you! :) I really love editing video - Tierfal and I have been making movies together since we were eleven, and since I had the faster computer with the editing software, I was the editor, so that’s how I got into it. It took me… I don’t know; next time I should time it. XD Probably several sessions of a few hours each?
