Don't Hate

Nov 23, 2010 03:00


So...
I've been working on this vid see? for a while now....
And I've been so nervous to post it in it's completion because of the message I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO GET FROM IT!
THIS IS NOT AN ANGEL HATE VID, THIS ISN'T EVEN A BANGEL HATE VID. THIS IS PURELY MY TAKE ON LETTING YOUR ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN YOUR WORDS!

I LOVE ANGEL I SERIOUSLY DO!

VID AND RANT )

vidding, tv: angel, ship: buffy & spike/btvs, vidding: video/btvs bangel, lj user: angearia, tv: btvs, vidding: video/btvs spuffy

This! Amazing! Thank you for this!

You did it so well! It's not about being wrong, it's about being right. It's about words and actions, it's about first love and true love, it's about fairytales and real love.

thank you!!!

I was so worried how this video might be perceived by some people.

It's about words and actions, it's about first love and true love, it's about fairytales and real love.

GAH! I LOVE THIS!! THANK YOU FOR THIS!

You shouldn't be! People write meta everyday and that's honoured. Imo this is indeed pure meta, it's deep and true and I'm honestly glad you think you can't write down your thoughts if you're always gonna vid them. :D

You deserve better than a season 8 comparison, but I can't help but bring up season 8 because I see this vid and season 8 trying to do the same thing: a compare/contrast that shows that Angel falls short when it comes to Buffy, and that she obviously has bet on (and space frakked with) the wrong vampire. You're not the only one who gets sick of Bangel in season 3 - I can only watch a limited number of season 3 episodes without reverting to "colorful commentary" as I call it ( ... )

after all this positive feedback I'm begining to wonder why I was so afraid to post this lol.

I guess a part of me wasn't sure if people thought I was trying to compare the two relationships, which in a way I am, but beings I think Angel and Spike are two completely different characters with only a few aspects in common (love of Buffy, vampire, soul) I would never try to compare them. What I was trying to do with this was show the difference between two VERY different relationships.

Also, I thought all the Bangels would gang up on me
*iz a-feared*

Thanks for the feedback!! :)
I eatz it like candy!

Oh, MAN. I have been anticipating this vid, and I AM NOT DISAPPOINTED. Flawless. Stunning. Illustrates the two gorgeously. And I don't get an anti-Bangel/Angel vibe off it at all. If anything, I think the B/A stuff is appropriately tragic and poignant. I can feel for it.

My favourite part is quite possibly: I will watch/ I will follow. Breaks my heart. Perfect summation.

In conclusion: Love it. You give good vid!meta. Carry on.

haha! thanks!

You say the nicest things :)

I always try to challenge myself when it comes to video making because with all the vidders out there now-a-days it's hard making something that hasn't already been done. Which is why now I'm taking an obvious girl/guy romantic song and trying to vid it to something completely unrealted to romance. Wish me luck! lol

god I'm such a vidding whore

Oh, you are definitely a standout vidder. At least, in Spike/Buffy fandom - you actually get the essence of the ship, without over-romanticizing them. That's difficult to find.

OOH. This is so related to my interests, lol. I'm sure it will turn out GREAT anyway, but you have my best wishes!

lol nobody minds.
